1. Suspicious wording.

We don't "freep" polls here...

25. Better link to the first poll (I think)

When I clicked on the first link above, I got the results of the poll, but not a chance to vote. I think this link may work better (at least I hope so.) By the way, only about 25% of the respondents when I went on were willing to give Bush policies a second chance.

3. Freep them? Or DU them?

Either way, I find on-line polls take way too much effort in proportion to their meaningfulness (which is zero).

8. Does anyone really pay attention to online polls?

I don't think so.
I never did, because I figured it was always some pimply faced geek doing the voting.
Now I know about "Freeping", and how incredibly easy it is to swing these polls one way or the other.

5. Freeping?

Isn't that what the people of FreeRepublic.com do?

What do we say here, "Lets DU that poll?" (like the Mountian Dew commercials).

Condi is a good match for the rest of the administration...butt kissing, brown nosing, moronic yes-(wo)men who don't give a rat's ass about the downward spiral that they have created.

Unfortunately for all of us (Dumbya AND Kerry voters alike), this administration is NOT a good match for the US. We are so screwed!

Of course, I did my part and voted...wonder if it was counted!

19. Hmmm.... I just voted in this second poll

and AFTER I voted 'No', the vote total was ALSO 43922. Hmmm... Is my vote NOT being counted AGAIN?!! Sorry, for all the exclamations, but I am so sick of my vote not being counted. Even in a CNN poll! What is going on? :argh:

20. I could be wrong, but

I think they update vote totals every few minutes not as each vote is cast. If I'm wrong, someone will correct me. :hi:

28. Done.....Condi looking like shit on that one!

I loved the poll on MSNBC after the 2nd debate back in October. It was huge for Kerry but Chris Matthews and his ass kissing clown crew were raving about Bush. Until they had to look at thier own poll which clearly showed the public thought Kerry murdered the chimp. Matthews quickly put that poll away for fear of looking like he was biased which of course he is.
