I don't usually ask to DU a poll

But this is my local paper in a two to one Democratic district. Local right wing loudmouths attacked the "who looked better" poll on the debate and gave Romney an artificial bump:

http://www.tribtoday.com/

This is Trumbull County Ohio, and it's hard to find a Republican here, but they troll the Warren Tribune Chronicle like filthy sharks and it pisses me off. Help make me feel a little better.

on edit: Thank you DU.
This isn't an important national poll, and it'll be gone tomorrow, but I'm sick of a few bullying Republicans taking over my local paper with their hateful retorts and assertions. I can now go about my day with a smile.

Big trolls on that thread. Rmoney leads slightly at this point, but a little DU love will fix that.

Who looked better in Tuesday’s debate?
a.Obama 56%

b.Romney 44%


And the wingnuts sure are spamming the comments there. My favorite?: "Romney was polite but firm."
