The latest polls show over 90% of the Christians want Terri Schiavo to live. How can all these polls be so wrong? Just read what the media is pouring out today about Terri Schiavo.
In a March 22 CNN/USA Today/Gallup poll, 52 percent of respondents agreed with that day's court decision to leave Schiavo's feeding tube unattached; 39 percent disagreed.
In a March 21-22 CBS News poll, 61 percent of respondents thought Schiavo's feeding tube should have been removed, while 28 percent thought it should have remained in place. Further, 66 percent did not think the feeding tube should be restored, while 27 percent thought it should.
Asked if Congress and the President should intervene in the Schiavo case, 82 percent said no; 13 percent said yes.
Even among evangelicals, 68 percent felt that the President and Congress should stay out of the matter.
In a March 20 ABC News poll, 63 percent of respondents said they support the March 18 court decision to remove Schiavo's feeding tube while 28 percent were opposed
When I look at all that is being said, I have to take a moment and remember the elections last fall. All the polls got it wrong. Just before the election, they said Bush would lose. The day of the election, they said Bush was losing by a large margin.
After Bush proved them wrong, all the pollsters said they missed the moral issue. Now, as the leader of the largest prayer board on the net, I see they are doing it again.
All the above polls say, "Even among evangelicals, 68 percent felt that the President and Congress should stay out of the matter."
This amazes me. We can get over 7,000 emails a day, and over 90% of them are asking for prayer to save Terri. The same people who got the election wrong are getting it wrong now.
Our polls say over 90% of all Christians want the President or Governor to do something now. They want them to step up for life.
When asked should the President step in, over 90% say yes.
When will the media learn they just don't know where the Christians are to poll them? They got it wrong in 2000. They got it wrong in 2004, and they have it wrong today.
Now, will someone, please, pray for Terri Schiavo?
