Extortion At The Top Level – Ten And A Half Million Dollars From Gallup Polling



Holder is not at the top level but this would have never happened without an OK from Obama. Gallup polling paid Eric Holder to leave them alone
Back in the Presidential campaign of 2012, Gallup polls had a streak where they put Mitt Romney well ahead of the President in certain key areas (in some cases by almost five percentage points). That failed to go unnoticed, at least by Barack Obama’s campaign team, and shortly after the poll was released, David Axelrod went on a morning news program tear about how Gallup had shoddy methodology, colored by corporate interests and a 2009 complaint about employees working long hours.
In true Obama Administration style, this Axelrod outburst was shortly followed by a Department of Justice investigation, which reopened the 2009 complaint file, and revived allegations that Gallup had overstated the amount of time it took to complete work on government contracts.
We might have forgotten about this little tidbit. Because it was over a year ago and I took ten shots of blue liquor the night of the election on a bet with an Obama communications director over who could win the most swing states (hint: I lost).
