More chimps view Chongo's 2008 run for the presidency as a "failure" than was the case after his previous run in 2004! 63% of chimps polled said that Chongo's 2008 run for the White House was a "failure". 36% said his 2008 run was a success, because it brought more national attention to primate rights and species equality issues. 1% either refused to answer the question or threw poop at the pollster.

Whereas in 2004 the same questions and answers came out this way:

42% of chimps - "It was a failure."
22% of chimps - "It was a success."
35% of chimps - "Who the hell is Chongo?"
1% of chimps - "Get outta my face right now or I'll rip yer friggin' ears off!"

One thing is crystal clear. Chongo's national profile has gone up since 2004, even though he only got 0.000015% of the vote nationwide. More chimps know about Chongo than was the case 5 years ago.

This bodes well for the future of Chongo's presidential aspirations.
