I don't feel "threatened," because I don't think these numbers really mean anything anyway.
As for questioning the poll, I will admit that I immediately had questions; not because of the results, but because of the source. I've read a number of articles over the last few years which have discussed how poll questions can be tailored towards a desired result, most of which have referenced Rasmussen as an example of a polling group which uses these tactics. As a result, I don't have a lot of faith in the validity of any of their polls.
