Politico's current front page poll:

Somehow, with over 52,000 votes, these results do not seem anywhere near accurate....

We do the same thing for Ron Paul. Polls are worthless anyway.

We won't stand a chance if all we do is spam online polls this time around. We need to take the entire election process very seriously. Delegates! People NEED to get active and break out of their comfort zone or we're doomed.

I think lessons of 07/08 has provided us with the experience to know that sign waving and online polls won't mean shit if you don't do the work to get delegates.

WE may do it for Ron, but Romney's folks sometimes set bots and with that number of votes, I suspect one or more were set. I remember a poll a year ago with over a million votes in it, because we voted and started a normal progression to winning, then Romney's folks put bots in to push Ron and Huckabee down, and to push Mitt up. Our guys took screenshots to prove what was happening, THEN set their own bots, first pushing Ron up, then, later also pushing Huckabee up when Ron started winning again. We got De Mint into second place, though.

But all the screen shots were sent to the guy running the poll who had started saying WE were the ones with the bots. He agreed that others were running them too, and first. When it got to over a million 'vote' hits to his site he seemed somehow mollified about the whole thing, actually.

Hear here!

The Romneybots built their machines during the March Madness episode, and must have been dying to turn them on. Now they look like the kind of fools we are often accused of being. LOL

Good grief!

When Romney supporters have to resort to the tactics of Ron Paul supporters, that's how you know Romney doesn't stand a chance.

This.

By the way of these people had a brain they would put him at 40%.

40% Romney - neutral person thinks Romney is the leading candidate in the poll

96% Romney - neutral person thinks Romney supporters are annoying spammers with no life.

Same principle holds true for Ron Paul or anyone else.

Supporters?

Employees is likely more accurate.
