I guess it makes sense, if you think about it. I mean, why on earth would people vote democrat if they weren't tricked into it in some way?

  That could be said the other way around as well. ;) Now seriously, there's an infinite amount of shades of gray between black and white. I wonder why most people always fall for these dichotomising old tricks. Anyway, in the land of the blind, the one-eyed man is king.

    Yeah - the trick worked both ways>> "on the basis of the manipulated score, 10% of the subjects switched their voting intentions, from right to left wing or vice versa. Another 19% changed from firm support of their preferred coalition to undecided. A further 18% had been undecided before the survey, indicating that as many as 47% of the electorate were open to changing their minds, in sharp contrast to the 10% of voters identified as undecided in Swedish polls at the time."
