If you are going to make a claim at least have the decency to offer some supporting evidence to the table.

Maybe you could just change the title of the post to "Ignorant AOL Users vote for Guliani in a meaningless name recognition poll"

I don't think Rudy is spamming that poll. Fred Thompson wasn't listed so all of his support goes to Rudy. As Alex Castellanos, Mitt Romney's media consultant, said "If Rudy is the tough mayor of New York, Fred is the guy they would hire to play Rudy on TV."

It was tongue in cheek. Meaning that if the RP had the percentage that Rudy has in this poll that is what people would be saying.

However, being that Rudy has so little online support, it's kind of astonishing that he is so far ahead in this online poll.

the question on the poll is asking who is most likely to get the nomination. That's different than who would you want to get the nomination.
