Poll: 100% of Americans Want WaPo/ABC To Disclose Poll Details
The latest tool that the Washington Post and ABC News are using to campaign against the Bush administration is a new poll, touted here by ABC, and trumpeted here by the WaPo. Here's the Washington Post lead:

ABC, supplies a link to what I want to see. Except they don't. The Adobe Acrobat page at the end of the link doesn't provide any more information.
Perhaps ABC and the WaPo don't want anyone examining their work because of the reaction to this tainted AP-Ipsos poll.
