50% at yes when I clicked on it. That is crazy.

edit: it should ask is she is qualified to take over as president. I think that point should be made clear in their question.

Whoa crap... I totally meant to post this in the politics section.

Well I guess this will end up pissing some people off, so it might work out here.

Well, I do hear the vice president's job is to RULE THE SENATE.

So of course.

By the way, folks, it's one browser, one vote. I personally have at least 3 browsers. And about 20 computers.

You don't get out much, do you?

If that's it, then it probable relies on cookies. You can probably clear them then and keep voting.

Yeah, that's what the site says. They have a whole page about how from Sept 5 to Sept 22 or so, you could vote as many times as you wanted. Since then, they have implemented cookies as a security measure.

You can't even get to that poll except via someone giving you the link now, so it's all just a bunch of silliness anyway.

At least I'm not a cripple.

The results don't even make sense. 50% yes, 48% no, 0% other.

It's a GOP conspiracy!

And, just to update you on a couple of old polls...

And I think this is a nice companion piece...

Your links upset me.

The first one because it is sexist, juvenile and stupid, but also because I find Cindy so repulsive that she is upsetting for me to look at.

The second one because it doesn't allow Canadians to play.

I'll be crying in the bathroom if anyone needs me.

That's right baby. I take no prisoners.

I did the same thing, and I don't even have a penis.

Do you want one?

.................... It depends on in which sense.

She's running for the most useless office in the country and you guys are questioning her qualifications? I think you're ignoring the giant under qualified elephant in the room (Obama) who is running for an office that does have some authority in this country.

And no, I'm not voting for McCain. I'm honestly quite excited to see where Obama takes us, I'm expecting a trip in a handbasket, but he's just got that aura of somebody who might do a complete 180 and do something right.
