[MNBrewer]

[Imagevision]

9. CNN?MSNBC recently announced Obama up by 6 point lead, by November it'll be a landslide!

[goclark]

18. Chuck Todd said Obama was losing the White Male vote

and that was huge?

All the polls I've seen say Obama is ahead. Am I missing something?

[paparush]

10. Obama's Margins have got to be large enough to overcome the Neocon Election Stealing Machine (tm)

If he goes in with 5-8 point margins, Obama is toast.

Not scientific at all. Just my gut.

[pleah]

11. I already voted on that one and it won't let me do it again.

[ohio2007]

13. But wouldn't that tend to skew the results ? lol nt

[ohio2007]

12. another meaningless poll. the next one they put out will include 3rd party types. nt

[debbierlus]

14. USA Today? I voted but I really wouldn't put much credence in this....

[ElsewheresDaughter]

20. He most certainly does need DU

[lojasmo]

21. Bwahahahaa

What a load. Self selective intertubes polls aren't worth the paper they're printed on.

[progressoid]

24. Lots of freeps sitting in their mom's basement voting over and over and over

[hendo]

22. ya'll realize AOL polls mean nothing, right?

I mean come on.. Check out the states that they have McCain winning, there is no way he is goign to carry almost all of New England.

[LTR]

25. I'm not at all surprised to see this kind of result on an AOL poll

I mean, most of these people barely know how to use the internet. Of course they're mostly Republicans!

[The Doctor.]

23. Pointless.

AOL poll?

Nah, no real accuracy.

[mzmolly]

26. AOL Polls are always heavily Republican.

But, it just goes to show you how AOL remains in business. ;)

[LTR]

27. This poll is all kinds of fucked up!

I mean, really:

California: O 52, M 48
Illinois: O 51, M 49
Massachusetts: M 52, O 48

McLame by 18 in Florida? By 6 in Vermont? 14 in Ohio?

AOHell must think it's users are really stupid, because this can't be a real user straw poll. Unless it was only open to RNC members.

:rofl:

[Triana]

28. Aren't all AOHell polls fixed - don't they start out with Repig advantage? n/t

[muryan]

29. AOL polls favor

People who think AOL is relevant, so uh this poll is crap.

Also, Obama winning IL 51-49. I'd take the poll down out of shame

[mystieus]

30. Voted.

[Imagevision]

31. Obama hasn't been into mixing it up with McBush for even 2 weeks yet,

[PDittie]

32. Isn't moving.

406+,000 votes.

[ohio2007]

33. Almost 450k votes.

many barak supporters probably don't use the internet let alone worry about disgruntled Hillary voters venting in such a poll

[jazzjunkysue]

34. still 55 for Gramps. It's rigged.

[ohio2007]

36. You can't vote more then once...... Can't skew it with a few people killing a few hours for proper

result.

I wonder if the Hillary voters will refuse to vote in November or go third party.

[jazzjunkysue]

43. You're assuming that the code inputs people's votes. How do you know

it's not a decoy? The page could be se to display 55-45 regardless of "votes."

They've been rigging the "news" for years.

[npincus]

35. AOL leans right.

[Spirochete]

37. This poll is on Army Of Losers

No wonder McThusaleh is winning it. :eyes:

[Danger Mouse]

38. AOL = For freepers too horribly stupid to figure out this crazy things known as the 'Internet'

[beac]

40. AOL =

A series Of Long "tubes".

[question everything]

39. Different polls, different conclusion

WASHINGTON -- Barack Obama begins his presidential race against John McCain with a lead in the latest Wall Street Journal/NBC News poll, but not so great an edge as might be expected, given the gale-force political headwinds against Sen. McCain's Republican Party.

Sen. Obama leads Sen. McCain by 47% to 41%, a spread that is twice the edge he had in the previous poll, in late April. Still, that lead is significantly smaller than the Democratic Party's 16-point advantage, 51% to 35%, when voters are asked, without candidates' names, which party they want to win the White House.

41. AOL is for the stupider people - I rarely worked right when I tried

it 15 years ago.

[Honeycombe8]

42. WARNING WARNING: Newbie who bursts thru door spouting Repub lines "vote early, often"

And oh, what a surprise! He found a single poll that was unfavorable to the Democrat! Instead of spouting the several others that are unfavorable to the Republican!

Now I wonder why THAT is? :eyes:

[nickinSTL]

44. Apparently AOL is populated by...

freepers.

Right now, Obama is only winning South Dakota :wtf: and DC.

[SoCalDem]

45. USA Today-AOL ? .might as well be Freeperville Daily News

:rofl:
