1. i heard a jelly bean poll at a coffee shop somewhere is leaning toward mcbean

[doublethink]

2. And awaiting the Sesame Street Poll on pins and needles,

Should be out later today.

[ArbustoBuster]

21. The Sesame Street poll is out now.

It shows Oscar the Grouch and Forgetful Jones (R) losing to Gordon and Music Teacher Bob (D) by 10 percent.

[Marsala]

3. But... Kerry won that poll with 57%

We're doomed! DOOMED!

[SuperTrouper]

4. LOL!! I heard Pee Wee's Playhouse poll is a toss up

:rofl:

[Dr. Death]

17. Oh, you bad person, you!

:)

[El Supremo]

5. Do we really need to post Drudge screen captures here?

It's bad enough that he gets quoted so much already.

[sharp_stick]

10. It's actually

a fivethirtyeight.com screen capture not drudge. Besides it's damned funny.

[yourguide]

6. I saw that this morning....I laaaaaaaaaaguhed and laughed!

[vanderBeth]

[rateyes]

14. You're kidding, right?

'Twas a joke about a bogus poll that kept being posted here a week or so ago.

[rucky]

15. of course

but I still get mass emails about it.

[rateyes]

16. Well then, I should have replied like this:

Google it. :hi:

[Kaylee]

9. From a mother that voted for Obama for her 4 y.o and 6 y.o....

believe me the poll means absolutely nothing.:rofl:

[wyldwolf]

12. Olbermann will report this with a straight face slowly dissolving into a smirk

[yellowcanine]

13. I am holding out for the Weekly Reader poll, myself.

[monmouth]

18. Oh the Weekly Reader had Obama way ahead. Sorry, don't have the link...n/t

[vaberella]

19. McCain still loses, so I don't get it. n/t

[qanda]

20. Anyone could vote in that poll and they could vote as often as they wanted

You could tell a lot of the comments were from adult freepers, because there were a ton of misspellings in the pro-McCain comments. My son and daughter were getting so mad reading some of that stuff. It was very close in the end, but I doubt it was in any way a good measure of how the election will turn out. And even if it is, McCain still loses.

[Mz Pip]

22. Obama still won!

Sorry to burst your bubble Drudge, but a win is a win. And Obama even won that one.

[berni_mccoy]

23. That's the truly sad part... they get excited when a (non-consequential) poll is close loss
