CNN's post-debate poll question cowardly and insipid
something like "did watching the vice presidential debate make you more likely to vote for one candidate?"

Whoa ...... What a ballsy question to ask ......

Sure wouldn't want to report that most people think Edwards won, now, would you, CNN?

Check out the Wall Street Urinal poll Skinner listed, it's got a 92% Edwards rate right now. :)

1. A few of the online polls had this question instead of picking the winner.

3. it's pathetic. They don't want people to see the truth
and that's that it's Edwards by a landslide.

I guess somebody told them not to ask the direct question this time.

Gee, I guess the results for the first Kerry/Shrub debate must have been "embarrassing for the president". Can't have that. No siree.

Fuck those whores.

2. They did have a poll asking who won...
it was 78/22 Edwards/Cheney when I voted. Surprise, surprise, when I went back to check (about 2 hours after the debate), the poll was gone!

I really wish I had taken a screen shot when they had the original poll up, because I have no doubt they'll lie about it tomorrow.

4. Good god. What a bunch of cowardly creeps
I mean it's the most stupid little thing, yet somebody is freaking out about it at CNN and changing the question.

Can you imagine?

"OH MY GOD PEOPLE THINK EDWARDS WON! WE CAN'T LET THEM SEE THAT!"

"HIDE THE BODIES, HIDE THE BODIES"

6. Remember, they had the Kerry/Bush poll up all night long.
Guess they panicked when they realized Cheney might lose this one too. But they couldn't hide all their tracks.

Here's a link with the results posted, before CNN had a chance to pull it.
