Anyone who calls this station "left" or "ultra left" needs to have their thinking privileges revoked and released in the wild.

I guess it shouldn't surprise anyone who pays attention to Yahoo. Their comments sections are completely infested with right-wing sockpuppets, so most likely, they're what's driving the "Yes" up so high. AFAIC, there should be another category: No. Not only is he not being judged too harshly, he's not being judged harshly enough.

Just a bullshit poll that can be manipulated. Don't be scared now. Be scared when you start seeing votes flipping. They are going to attempt another cheat. Edit to retract telling you how to feel. Feel scared now if you want, they are your feelings.

Claims there's 576043 votes

Click and vote. Vote count updates to 676545 (ok, not unexpected to see a jump of 500 votes, as I'm sure there are 500+ people online checking out that page).

Click refresh, look at vote count: 576142. 400 voters just disappeared. WTF?

Not very reliable.

I voted multiple times, and it too them. It's also interesting that they don't tell you how many individual votes each choice has been getting.

has not been judged nearly harshly enough. The entire top echelon of that hideous maladministration belongs in the dock at the Hague and then (at least) in prison for the rest of their days.

if it ended at 50/50, then it is either a Repuke scam or just plan scary that the nation has forgotten so soon.
Either way, I don't likey.

Can the American people really be that uninformed, or is it just Yahoo! addicts?
