information flows and there is not a lot of fact checking. judy: get my pressure up on that. i would just echo that because i think the current climate makes it so much more difficult to get your message out. and there are so many other vehicles. but i do think it is a tremendous opportunity because you can also be much more creative. and also to the public affairs side, i have seen more and more public affairs being done on the international front. that has just boomed. frederick: thank you, sarah. ladies and gentlemen, thank you all for being with us this evening for this forum. i hope you have enjoyed hearing a little bit about the careers of these three fine public servants who are doing different things now than in bush s administration. we thank you for being here. if you would join me in thanking , our guests.

it will be interesting to see how this plays down in terms of the story in the post on money in the bush world. i think there will be a broad sense of that is the way politics work. i think that will push for it being even stronger in advocacy on going after money and going after the way government works. can i ask another question. i was struck by the new york times piece a week ago now about election polling in near crisis and they cited an increasing number of homes that only have cell phones, willing to answer surveys, and likely voters, and the result is pollsters will be less reliable and may not even know when they are off pace. i thought, given your long experience, would let you say whether you agree with that? stan: they set up question? this being the only poll that you could trust, and the reason, i am not just saying that, the reason is 60% on cell phones. stan: right. and also, we are the only ones in a national poll. we are only dealing with people who vote
