they had their poll last night, and they didn't like the outcome, so they pulled it:

Last Nights Poll:

NOW, they put a new poll up with the same question!!

1. Yep, and read the website now.

"Early polls indicated differing reactions to the debate between Vice President Dick Cheney and Sen. John Edwards. An ABC News snap poll shows Cheney the winner, aided by a more-Republican audience, while a CBS News poll of undecided voters shows the opposite."

I guess their own poll didn't matter. Perhaps a second one where Edwards gets twice as many votes as Cheney will persuade them.

Riiiiight.

6. and the funny thing is Edwards is still winning.

Just voted again. Looking forward to the next debates.

10. Yeah, the ABC News poll, aired last night on Nightline...

... is total bulls--t. The poll shows Cheney as the "winner" by 8 percentage points -- because there were 7% more Republican viewers.

Among registered voters who watched the debate, 43 percent said Cheney won, 35 percent called Edwards the winner and 19 percent called it a tie. One factor is that more Republicans tuned in — 38 percent of viewers were Republicans, 31 percent Democrats, the rest independents.

Just ridiculous. That's like a football game where the "Donkeys" score 10 points more than the "Neoconvicts", but the Neoconvicts are declared the winners because they had more fans at the game.

Unbelieveably poor journalism by ABC.

Plaster them with feedback.


p.s. Here's the ABC poll report...

7. They'll give this poll 30 minutes..

to swing to VP OilBaron, if it doesn't, they'll just pull it again.

Typical NeoCon behavior.

Rush warned his listeners about this today. Said MacAuliffe sent out a mass email telling Dems to do this.

[Occulus]

17. They must REALLY have marching orders

their vote button takes you to a blank pop-up and a weather page!

[anarchy1999]

16. Effective way for CNN to monitor the effectiveness of their spin

throughout the day.

If you haven't voted in new poll, please do so ASAP.

[RebelOne]

18. I e-mailed CNN and asked them why they wiped out the poll

and put up a new one. It will be interesting to see their reply if they reply.
