Political polls? Nope. During the course of just about every one I've ever participated in, it became pretty clear which side commissioned it from the nature of the questions.

Re: Media polls
no... but i got a call one time that simply asked me to name various people in the govt--- name 4 supreme court justices, name the vice president, who won the GOP primary in the last election, who won the Dem primary... etc.
At the end, they told me that only 20% of those polled could name 2 justices... sad
