Yeah, it really looks like she's the one who should drop out due to lack of support.

1. It's a fucking online poll!

:rofl:

ON AOL!

:rofl:

[roguevalley]

63. AOL = Repukes always has

[truebrit71]

2. You're using on ONLINE poll to base your assertion on?

:rofl:

[Araxen]

3. Last I checked AOL was the asscrack of the Internet

[snooper2]

26. It's still used as dial-up..

by 60-90 year old white women...Hillary's core :rofl:

[Egnever]

46. Spot on

I do tech support for a living and invariably its the old ladies that are still tied to aol.

[OnionPatch]

55. Boy, you got that right.

AOL is the internet haven for every moron in cyberspace.

[whatchamacallit]

4. Only cretins use AOL

:eyes:

[MadBadger]

19. Hey!!!! I just got rid of my AOL three weeks ago.

[whatchamacallit]

32. Congratz! ;-)

41. AOL steals money from bank accounts

My friend got a computer from Circuit City.
He is extremely careful and he never recalled given aol permission to bill his account.

His credit card was stolen in a gas station.

About two weeks later, he received an automated call from aol asking that he update his credit card with them.

When he tried to call, he couldn't speak to a warm body unless he entered his "acct. number." Since he never had an acct. with aol, for days he attempted to contact them.

He spoke to several people in India who gave him numbers that did not work.

Bottom line ~ he filed a FRAUD complaint with the Atty. General's office and BINGO! AOL called to say that he has signed up for aol service with the computer trial. He NEVER signed up for that.

However,Circuit City,and probably others, must give aol your information with/without the trial.

I have worked with him for months getting his money back-- $350 plus.
It would have been more but AOL informed him that they only went back 3 years because of the law suit!

Do a search on the web for "AOL and FRAUD" and you'll see.

[bunnies]

5. AOL?!

Theyre still around? Huh. Who knew.

[Johnny__Motown]

6. who still belongs to AOL? Old people I would think

I'll give this much to you: You're awfully brave to post something like that and pass it off as legitimate info.

:wtf:

[galactical]

9. AOL Still Exists?

[VolcanoJen]

25. What about that Prodigy poll? Or maybe CompuServe?

I hear Hillary kills over at Netscape.

}(

Seriously, if Obama were winning some AOL Straw Poll I wouldn't be trumpeting it and setting myself up.

[VolcanoJen]

10. This must be the same poll Bill Clinton was wagging his finger about yesterday in Indiana.

Funny, I always thought it was the Republicans who didn't believe in science. :-)

[phrigndumass]

11. .

[kid a]

12. is AOL still up and running?

[elizm]

13. AOL straw poll....

That's all you've got?? :rofl:

[redqueen]

14. Wow... AOL?! Now that is a reliable source! Somebody alert the media!

They will want to know about this groundbreaking development!

:wow:

[ericgtr]

15. LOL

The only people still using AOL are 70 and older on dialup.

[Adelante]

17. Gawd nt

[Teaser]

18. random samplez plz

kthxbye

[Mooney]

20. On the same page HRC gets her ass handed to her on whether the Tuzla story

means that she can't use her "experience" argument against Obama any more. So if this page's poll is an accurate barometer of the nation's preference for the Democratic nominee, then it is also an accurate snapshot of the nation's sentiment that she can't use her "experience" as an argument any more.

Right?

[EmilyAnne]

21. I hope the superdelegates are paying extra special attention to AOL polls.

:sarcasm:

[Hepburn]

22. Jay-sus Fucking H. Christ....

...it an ON-LINE poll...from AOL.

The OP is a joke, right? That or you are a joke...LOL...

[ericgtr]

23. Hillary party

[mckeown1128]

31. wow... looks like every GOP event... nt

[PoliticalAmazon]

An internet poll? Sufferin' Jesus, they are really reaching now.

Desperation time for the Clintons.

[Nitrogenica]

24. Are we to believe Rush's dittoheads aren't affecting polls like this?

I'm sorry but there's no way she's actually winning here in Minnesota.

Impossible.

[4_Legs_Good]

27. Of course she is! Her base, Women aged 85-97 are the only ones who use AOL! n/t

[meow mix]

28. WOW an AOL ONLINE POLLS!11!!

desperate much?

[WillYourVoteBCounted]

29. same site: 55% say Tuzla story ends Hillary's "experience" argument against Obama

Hah.

[rocktivity]

37. Whether this poll makes Hillary look good or bad

depends on what your meaning of "ends" is...

:evilgrin:
rocknation

[theredpen]

30. Clinton Supporters have become the Ron Paul supporters of the left

[aquarius dawning]

33. Say what you will about AOL, 53,000 people voted from every state and 29,883 said "fuck you Obama".

and they said the same thing last week and they'll say the same thing next week because Baracak Obama sucks to the majority of Americans. Meanwhile ya'll post a "progressive" poll which has Obama leading and assert it has a greater degree of relevance. you deserve to lose for your arrogance alone.

[truebrit71]

34. Spoken like a true freeper....you made it all the way 800 posts before blowing it...

"you deserve to lose for your arrogance alone." Strange way for a "progressive" to speak to other progressives...

BYE!!!

[aquarius dawning]

40. Hey, I 've made no attempts to hide my contempt for Barack Obama since I came here.

why would I start now?

[psygon]

35. greetings,

It appears that this AOL online is not scientific, statistical or even a mathematical analysis. The poll seems to have been compiled from individuals who participated for entertainment reasons in order to garner Web traffic

-- aquarius dawning, would you not agree with me, that a carefully sampled representative population randomly selected using scientific extrapolation could have given a far larger impression of integrity regarding your assertion that the Honorable Senator CLinton is "beating" the Honorable Senator Obama in 49 states?

Do you disagree? What are your thoughts?

best regards,

psygon

[aquarius dawning]

42. it's still 53,000 people. that's a pretty large group of potential voters

anyway you look at it. I understand the need to deny anything that dries up your wet dream with barack obama but this is still 53,000 people casting a yes or no vote. about 30,000 of them said yes to Hillary. Do you really think that becasue this poll is "unscientific", these people will actually vote for Obama in November? or that a sample group of 53,000 voters is less representative of reality than a sample group of about 1,000 people? furthermore, This may be an AOL poll but I don't use AOL and I'd wager that many of the participants who voted in that straw poll don't either. The, like I, just happened to cme across it really. ya'll are in for a big disapointment come November and we're gonna be the ones saying "we told you so" and then you're really gonna be fucked because the message will be undeniable.

[truebrit71]

47. It's an online poll that one person could vote 53,000 times in..

...it is absolutely the WORST measurement of ANYTHING...

..and again, who is this "y'all" that you keep referring to...are YOU not a Democrat? Wouldn't that make "y'all" US?

I think y'all are on the wrong board...

[aquarius dawning]

60. No, you can't. Try it.

and "ya'll" is addressing the large population of Barack Obama DUers who could write volumes about ignoring reality at their own peril. That would include you by the way.

[Lochloosa]

59. Welcome to DU psygon

:toast:

[redqueen]

62. Well hello there psygon.

Welcome to DU! :hi:

[RiverStone]

39. What??? Obama sucks to the majority of Americans??

Guess that's why Obama leads in the:

POPULAR VOTE
STATES WON x 2
DELEGATES

:sarcasm:

Why even make statements that are obviously false?

[aquarius dawning]

43. yes, he does. How well would he have done if there was no such thing as a caucus

and if Michigan and Florida had had their voicesheard? Guess what, the general isn't a caucus and Michigan and Florida will be heard.

[Tarheel_Dem]

51. so an internet poll is more representative than a caucus?

i mean, who the hell aside from the over 60's even know that aol still exists? you've got to get out more.

[aquarius dawning]

58. A.) 83,000 people voting up or down is way more representative than any caucus.

especially when making predictions about a general election.
B.) I cam across the poll accidentally. I'm sure plenty of others did too.
C.) Is it really so hard to believe that mainstream America would identify with Hillary Clinton over barack obama. I don't think so.

[RiverStone]

64. Obama leads the popular vote by 700,000 - I'll count that over AOL.

I'm all for a fair redo in FLA/MI - but the votes will never be counted as is.

And mainstream America finds Obama far less polarizing than Hillary. I don't get how folks don't see how a Hillary nomination would galvanize hoards of rethugs to vote against her.

[emilyg]

57. Yep.

[Guava Jelly]

38. Aol polls are always garbage

They are about as reliable as Fox news polls

[Raffi Ella]

44. Yup

:evilgrin: NOT.

[SoCalDem]

45. DAMN.. I was hoping Sanjaya could make a comeback.. I voted 10 times for him

:grr:

[theboss]

48. An AOL poll?

This means that 75-year-old woman who send one email a week to the granddaughters are clearly backing Hillary.

Seriously...how many people here even were aware that AOL was still in business?

[loveangelc]

49. um, yeah Ron Paul won those on the Republican side....

[1776Forever]

50. RCP Average 03/13 - 03/23 - 46.1 43.7 Obama +2.4

http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2008/president/us/democratic_presidential_nomination-191.html

Keep it truthful - This is the total average of all US polls!

:spank:

[jgraz]

52. Don't you have a poem you should be posting?

:eyes:

[CreekDog]

53. and you are skeptical of caucuses

:rofl:

[anonymous171]

54. lol looks spammed to me.

I've been onto a couple of Pro-hillary sites and they are posting links to these polls.

[Life Long Dem]

56. AOL is mostly repukes

[anonymous171]
