there really should be a sub-forum for "POLLS"
they have as much credibility as 'no Pentagon plane' threads...

I am sick of these poll topics. No matter how many time people told them that polls are rigged, 'fixed', etc etc.. people still post these poll topics..

that will be very, very and very nice if they set up the poll forum so I or some of us no longer need to put up with these poll topics.

2. IMO, There Needs To Be Some Higher Standards Applied
a bare minimum of requirements to post the polls:

a link and internal info like who was polled, how many were polled and when etc.

It's about Responsibility.

6. no. constant hand-wringing over national 'polls'
is just meaningless.

ask Gore how special it was to win a national poll in 2000.

7. Yes, ignore the polls
That's the smart thing to do. Let's count our chickens before they hatch. Kerry has already won! Let's go back to the regular programming and forget that there are questions that need answers, because, by gawd, the possible answers are just too uncomfortable to deal with. I want my MTV!
