Morgan says to look at the Rasmussen report to find their definition of “political class.” I looked at the report and not only didn’t find a definition of that class but a note that in the survey they did NOT define it. They let each respondent make up his own definition of what he meant by “political class”. They did not ask respondents to identify themselves as part of that class or not. They classified each respondent according to his answers, and voila! They found that people they classified according to their answers, gave different answers. They would have produced more meaningful results had they classified them by occupation, whether they work in the private sector or in government or tax-free organizations.
