6. Knowing that the freeps are very organized when it comes to...
...freeping polls, it's amazing they couldn't take it past 50/50.

7. Hard to believe the poll is not an Obama/Biden blowout
who in their right mind can back a McCain/Palin or ANY Republican ticket for that matter. Boggles the mind.:freak:

13. At first, I was concerned
Edited on Mon Sep-01-08 10:32 AM by tomg
that the numbers were even close. Then I looked at the poll directly under the presidential poll -"Who is the biggest pop-star of all time: Madonna or Michael Jackson" and found that while 770390 votes had voted in the poll on the presidency 1043197 had voted in the pop-star poll and skipped the presidential.

Now I am not concerned, just depressed. I wonder what the results would have been had the poll been

Who would you rather see in the White House?
Obama-Biden
McCain-Palin
Madonna-Michael Jackson

15. This is a hilarious poll
First of all, it is by Us magazine.

But the Michael Jackson/Madonna poll has 1057937 votes but the Obama/McCain poll only has 775029 votes? WTF

34. It's easy to "DU" this poll
Once you got it loaded and you voted once, just click "enter" and "alt-F4" repeatedly until your fingers hurt.

46. USmag is worse than Hellomag
In the Hello magazine polls (who is the most elegant, etc. lol) you can vote only once every 15 minutes! If you try to vote again before 15 minutes is up, it won't register.
