Words that I describe this man: intelligent, manipulative, evil, professional, chaotic. I respect this man yet detest him for his creation of civil discourse. He's pretty much a political advertiser.

Remember everybody its Frank Duntz and his focus poop. I mean this jokeingly Im actually a fan of Fox, Frank is smart guy he went to Oxford, he just cracks me up sometimes, you get the feeling hes a little to smart for his ego.

Way to spin it, Luntz! Yeah, you really have your hand on the pulse of your countrymen by being a tactician on how to destroy a consumer protection agency and regulation meant to protect them.

What a worthless piece of dog shit!

Oh, wait, wait. Let's spin that Luntz style, the result of a natural occurrence of some effect to the olfactory senses by man's best friend.

Now that can't be bad now, can it? Ya rat bastard!

oh wow. The President can be a sales promoter.

To be honest, I think there needs to be a good balance between reading polls and sticking with principles. After all this is OUR country and the President should answer to US. It's not necessarilly about pandering to the people but rather finding out what America wants and how they respond to him. Some presidents can take polls too far (Bill Clinton), and some not far enough (George W. Bush). President Obama should find a happy medium.

Hello, Obama is a moderate Republican trying to unite the Republican party. And because the Democratic party is so ineffectual, he and they will be able to implement a moderate Republican program. That's what this has always been working towards.

obama cares so much about luntz focus groups cause he wants to know how to best cater to or pander to Americans. He's less about principles, more about popularity. A principled person knows what the right thing to do is, and doesn't need to rely on polls all the time.

@jrc99us It was, "Do you think we spend too much money on illegal immigrants?"

And then he asked two other questions: "Would you deny emergency room care to illegal immigrants?" and "Would you deny the children of illegal immigrants the ability to attend a public school?"

[jrc99us]

@MooseOfReason What was the question?

[MooseOfReason]

There's a video with Penn and Teller showing how Frank Luntz can get two different answers about the same question.

The guy is a double-talker.
