1. 40 percent is higher than i would have thought for Romney

maybe collector types who think it will be worth more later ?

2. It Would Be Interesting To See Their Previous "Polls" ?

4. i found some info, and they do seem to predict actual results

even the closeness of the 2000 and 2004 are similar to how actual results were close. the 2008 seem similar to this year.

< In the past two elections, the 7-11 poll has practically mirrored the final national results. In 2000, Bush cups outsold Gore cups by 1% and in 2004, Bush cups were preferred to Kerry cups 51% to 49%.

Current tally on 2008 cups sold:
60% Obama
40% McCain>

9. SKEWED!?!

It's common knowledge that LDS members in good standing are not permitted to partake of coffee and other caffeinated beverages. Is the "Missing Mormon" quotient being factored into this poll by 7-11??? But wait! I see that my own state of Idaho is one of only two "Red Romney" states, the other being West Virginia where moonshine appears to still be the beverage of preference but sadly doesn't garner any blue votes. The sizable LDS population here must have been granted some sort of "dispensation" (a primarily Catholic term meaning "go for it&quot , in order to overcome the somewhat saner and bluer political enclave centered in Boise. However, look, even Utah is blue? Hey, I'm getting confused but I sure like that big picture!

10. Interesting part about TX is that Killeen is a military town (base, etc..) and POTUS

is waaay in front (62-38) And it is in the heart of TX, not one of our urban areas/counties. So much for certain pundits/repukes/articles, etc.. that have tried to say that the military population is leaning towards mittens and his b.s.

Only area in TX where mittens leads is Grapevine, suburb to the north where alot of mitt-like people live.

12. i believe active troops are mostly for Obama, it's the older vets that might lean romney

but even then i question the numbers.

11. Nothing else matters.
