Is your vote influenced by candidates' appearances on late-night comedy shows?


Lord, give me strength...

1. Of course it is.
I have no mind of my own and am desperate for media to tell me what I think.

i wonder if there is one guy who gets to write these questions, i would like to meet him/her and ask him a few poll questions. "when did you quit beating your wife?" (well, assuming he is male)

Let's encourage George to visit John on the Daily Show. That would be a laugh.

5. well it's not like CNN gives me a huge alternative these days
Anytime a candidate has a platform to discuss what he/she believes, they have the opportunity to influence potential voters. (duh)

I would rather have candidates on shows (whether it's a comedy show or a news show) than unimportant mouthpieces on either side yelling and screaming at each other for "entertainment" value (Crossfire, Hardball, Hannity and colmes, etc)

6. 90% say 'no'
Is your vote influenced by candidates' appearances on late-night comedy shows?

Yes 10% 1592 votes

No 90% 13575 votes
Total: 15167 votes


I hit the 'contact us' on the CNN start page to send 'negative' feedback on their Tabloid Journalism, i.e., what kind of asinine question is that? etc.
