It's a weird skill set that probably leads me to an above-average number of weird—and no doubt, sometimes wrong or misinformed—takes. And there's ample room to criticize generalists/jacks-of-all-trades. But that's the correct critique, not a "pollster straying out of his lane". — PolitiTweet.org

@JamesSurowiecki One problem I can imagine is that if the FDA establishes an expectation that even this very low risk of complications is unacceptable, they set themselves up to receive even more criticism when complications inevitably arise. — PolitiTweet.org
