Isn't it funny that ABC news didn't instant poll, and CNN changed theirs?
Last night CNN's "who won" poll was something like 92 - 8 favoring Edwards. By 9:50 p.m., it had changed to "Did the debate help you choose a candidate?".

ABC News just didn't play polls this time.

What are they afraid of? Look at the other mainstream online polls . . . I think they speak for themselves.

ABC and CNN want a horserace and by gollee they're going to get one even if they have to make one up.

5. they were talking scientific polling beforehand
with a sample size of 500 composed primarily of Republican voters.
It aint a horserace theyre after, its a boxing match.
They know what they are doing, it is the voters and viewers who are clueless.
