I hate that he conflates Conservatives with Republicans and Progressives with Democrats.
I didn't bother to watch the entire thing, because oh my goodness does he ramble. But I will note a very large problem with this survey is it does not properly capture level of concern.
Additionally, I find it VERY problematic that the raw data or research information is unavailable. How was the sample selected? What was the sample size? How were the questions organized? How was bias identified and accounted for? I tried tracing upstream through twitter - no dice. I tried going to the research firm - Echelon Insights - no dice. There are charts and graphics - but no data to back them up.
All that being said, based on what I have seen portrayed on this very site, there is a kernel of truth in this polling. Maybe not the whole truth - but some of it.

I agree. One of the drawbacks to all polls IMHO. If the questions are not biased then the interpretation is. I've tried doing polls here but with only 10-15 participants there is no empirical data to really call it a good poll. And yea, Bill does tend to wander when he is solo. I tried watching his Stratosphere and just could not make it through. Right Angle with the 3 of them tends to be a lot more focused - and at least shows what sparked that episode.
