They asked me two or three issues related questions then got around to who I preferred, Obama or Romney, then gave undecided and 'others' options and I was curious to see what happened when I pressed 4 for others (I thought maybe they would give a Ron Paul option)

I went with 4 and the question repeated itself. I let it finish the options again and pressed 4 and the question repeated itself. I hit 4 for the third time and knew something was up so I tried 3 for undecided and the telephone interview failed (hung up).

Is this a case of bad telephone interview programming aka incompetence or taking driving opinion away from any opposition to the two party system? I guess I'll never know but it certainly felt like the latter...
