Okay, here's a conspiracy theory for you...

[brooklynite]

CNN, the Networks, Facebook all set up meaningless online polls to get the Sanders supporters worked up about how their candidate "won" the debate, knowing that the the rug would get pulled out from under them when accurate scientific polling came out.

Any less rational than some of the other conspiracies proposed here?

1. Your missing the blanket accusation of racism in your post.

Cmon, duh.

9. I know the feeling.

I sometimes read things I've previously posted and wonder...what the hell?! It is when I type on my Ipad, that auto spell corrector is killer!

3. So what's your angle here?

Are you pulling a ludicrous conspiracy from your backside just to make a random statement about the nature of conspiracy theories, or attempting to float the notion without owning it?

5. Polls aren't so scientific when the corporate media programs millions of people that never saw

the debate with only highly edited clips and self serving analysis.

Thanks for the thread, brooklynite.

7. I get a tenth of a penny for every online poll I vote in from the Illuminati. nt

8. CNN and Facebook are corporate entities....

With profits as the goal. I think most people could have told you that if Hillary did very well the pundits would say she won. Just as most of us could assume an immediate poll hosted by Facebook would come out with Sanders as the winner.

If these assumptions can be made, which I think a strong argument can be, then CNN and Facebook execs knew it as well. They played both sides of the fence and it worked. Go look at their valuations. People keep touting unscientific polls conducted by a corporation that makes CNN look like its playing with pocket change.
