I did a google search for a hillary photo and that one i picked was one of the first ones on the page. When i saw it i knew i had to use it if anything for my own amusement.

Good work.

I really think that poll is one of the few that might actually capture the reality of the voting patterns.

Exactly, I tell people this all the time too. Paul would give Hillary a hard time.

I went to the link and I don't have a myspace account, and really don't want one, but it seems like you have to have one to look at what you posted. I'd like to see it, just don't want to have to sign up for myspace. Thanks!

Check out this USA Today article about the AOL straw poll. It gives credence to the idea that the polls are roughly accurate EXCEPT where it involves Dr. Paul.

If anyone thinks this article should have it's own thread, feel free.

The AOL poll is insecure and therefore unreliable. If you delete cookies from aol.com, you can vote again. Don't waste your time with this poll, but do point out it's error to those who claim it's legitimacy.

how would you make one tamper proof?
would you have to only let one vote from one IP address?
