Do you think the opinion of someone who didn't watch the debates is more valid than the opinion of someone who did watch the debates?
Chan, I know this is difficult to comprehend but when websites have polls that you click on to vote they are very much skewed and prone to being manipulated by groups.

They are naturally biased by whatever demographic frequents that website. Then that bias can be overcome by an orchastrated campaign by a group to vote a certain way on an online poll.

In other words they are prone to publicity campaigns for a person or issue that is involved with the poll. A canidate's blogasphere can notify supporters of online polls and urge them to go vote to make their guy look good. It happens all the time. Remember back on FCF or NFCF we were asked to vote for some Pentecostal involved in an online singing contest.

You are astute, misguided but astute, so I am sure you know all of this but just don't want to acknowledge it.
