CNN allows skewed poll favoring Bush...
"CNN allows skewed poll favoring Bush, but when it favored Edwards, they yanked it"

An online poll that shows clear evidence of tampering in favor of President Bush remains online at CNN, though when a similarly-worded poll favored Sen. John Edwards on Tuesday, CNN yanked the poll and started anew.

The current poll, which asks, “Who won the second presidential debate?” favored Senator Kerry by a three-to-one margin at 11 a.m. EDT Saturday. By five p.m., President Bush led Kerry 50 to 48 percent.

The ratio of those who voted for Bush versus those who voted for Kerry in that six hour stretch was greater than four to one, with Bush outpacing Kerry 83 to 17 percent, among those who didn’t feel the debate was a draw

3. Also, I think the point more is that they yanked the Edwards poll
and not the Bush poll. WTF?
