You are quoting Rassmussen Poll. Scott Rassmassen is an evangelical Christian who describes himself as having "been an independent pollster for more than a decade" who "[l]ike the company he started,maintai ns his independence and has never been a campaign pollster or consultant for candidates seeking office".
However, the Center for Public Integrity listed his firm as having been paid $95,500 by the Republican National Committee and $45,500 by the George W. Bush presidential campaign in 2003-4.
His opinion polling is generally skewed to reflect Republican views and are often used by Republicans to support their views.
