3. Yeah I saw a link on the Hillary Clinton forum telling them to vote there.
Edited on Sun Apr-06-08 05:05 PM by stratomagi
Looks like since winning in the real world is becoming less of an option they have to rely on inundating one polling site.

If you had to vote today for President of the United States of America, who would you vote for Obama, Hillary or McCain. On the 40th anniversary of the loss of Reverend Martin Luther King, I thought about it from his point of view.

18. It worked out great for Ron Paul
Having all the supporters spam EVERY online poll is a great way to become president.

32. Let me understand
it's sad that a Clinton supporter on some obscure internet forum asks people to vote in an AOL poll. And you make that claim in a thread on some obscure internet forum where an Obama supporter asks people to vote in the same poll.

Got it. Obama supporter = good, Clinton supporter = sad.

33. No
It's sad that the other board underwrites it as "Action of the Week," rather than leaving it an ephemeral thread (only to be kicked by the likes of you, which is also sad).

That's all.

34. I see
it's the labeling of the same exact action that makes such a huge difference to you.

13. Yes, Hillary supporters, Even Illonois has Clinton ahead
Something is wrong with this.........Obama is losing in every state!

I guess it says something about people who use AOL as their only internet connection.

15. AOL...who cares
I have better things to do than boost their page counts in a meaningless poll. Personally I think trying to game online polls is both an utter waste of time and the hallmark of a loser. Nobody takes such polls seriously.

20. Hillary 20,000 ahead. Isn't it interesting how the numbers
pro Obama switch when you get away from DU? That's why Obama can't win the general.

25. Sure does not reflect reality...
At least in my state of Washington.

AOL says Hillary is leading, whereas she lost WA 68% - 32%.

Go figure...:shrug:

37. Skip that vote
If Clinton wins by 20% it will be obvious it was overrun by Clintonites.
