1. ESPN recently announced it will launch a 3D network in June 2010. How interested would you say you are in viewing 3D programming from ESPN – very interested, somewhat interested, or not at all interested?
2. What’s your favorite non-religious holiday/day of celebration? New Year’s Eve, Valentine’s Day, St. Patrick’s Day, Earth Day, Mother’s Day/Father’s Day, Memorial Day, 4th of July, Labor Day, Halloween, Thanksgiving or something else?
3. There has been discussion in the news lately concerning the use of full-body scans at airports. Full-body scans show images of the body through clothing. Some supporters of full-body scans argue that tests of the scans show them to be highly effective in keeping dangerous materials off airplanes, particularly non-metal materials that metal detectors won’t catch. Some opponents argue that because the images of the body are so detailed, the image scanning can be humiliating to passengers and are too invasive. Some argue the need for a balance between the need for security measures and airline safety.
Do you agree or disagree that full-body scans should be allowed at airports?

1. President Obama recently awarded himself a grade of B+ for his first year in office. Do you think this grade is too high, just about right, or too low?
2. NASCAR drivers, and some athletes in other sports, wear logos that identify groups that have sponsored them. Would you support or oppose legislation that made it necessary for your elected officials to similarly display the logos of the groups that have provided money for their campaigns while he or she makes public appearances?
3. Some schools have instituted zero tolerance discipline policies which punish students for any infraction of a rule, regardless of accidental mistakes, ignorance, or extenuating circumstances. The punishment is often expulsion.
Some argue that zero tolerance policies are a good thing because it is difficult to distinguish between innocent pranks and mistakes from more serious threats, and that the policies must be strict to protect students.
Others argue that minor offenses result in too severe punishment and that expulsion can lead to a number of negative outcomes.
With which side of the argument do you most agree?

There has been plenty of talk over what mid-term election outcomes will mean. Will majority changes mean that Americans disagree with the President? Are people simply discontent with the state of America in general? In a recent Zogby Interactive poll (administered November 4 – 6), 72% of likely voters said they believe that Democrats will lose seats in 2010. This is amidst Republican wins last Tuesday in Virginia and New Jersey, but a Democratic win in New York’s 23rd. The President’s approval rating hovers around 50% and few are happy with leadership for healthcare reform, a major topic not only of political debate but also of our everyday news. On top of these figures, 89% of likely voters say that the American public is polarized.
With these indicators that voters are discontent and the belief that America is polarized, how should pundits and other media figures interpret these numbers? Do you think the 2010 elections will mean Democratic losses and if so, why?
