Need your advice
I've selected by our Cox cable/CBS to take part in their poll via cable digital. During the debate questions will appear on the TV screen, then I answer their question with my digital remote. Sometime after the debate, CBS will broadcast of the results of the poll. After the debate they will send me another poll via the internet.

I was also planning to attend the Kerry rally in Tempe.

What do you all think supports Kerry the most. Can't do both.

Would like your advice.

I think Kerry's site is being hit because it is sooooooo slow.

2. Idea...
Have someone else in your home (likeminded, of course) do the digital cable poll. You go enjoy yourself at the rally.

4. It depends

There'll be plenty of people at the Kerry rally, and it sucks to give up a chance to see him live. I saw him at the Miami rally after debate #1, and it was great. We left there pumped up and ready to spread the word.

Is this a national poll or just local TV? if it's just local, it may not make a huge difference. Although anything that boosts Kerry's numbers, even locally, contributes to momentum. If it's a national poll, do that, hands down.

I'd say the poll supports Kerry the most either way, but doing the poll might not be worth giving up a chance to go to a live rally if it's only seen by a limited number of people.

Sorry that I can't be more helpful.

On edit: The above responses are the best idea. Damn, why didn't I think of that?

5. This is
a National Poll.

I don't have anyone who can come to my house.
