Sam Boyd demystifies dial testing. I find this new trend of showing dial testing as being somehow vaguely insulting. It's sort of like a laugh track on a sitcom, which tells you what you're supposed to find funny. Then again, it's not like CNN is manufacturing this itself, and it is coming from actual people. I guess it's more like sitcoms filmed in front of a studio audience, then, which is still annoying but less fake.
Then again, I watch the debates online on C-Span.
