Poll question: Was Sarah Palin the reason that Saxby Chambliss won the special run-off election in GA?

1. Sarah Palin couldn't help herself to a bag of airline peanuts! n/t

[gratuitous]

2. Well, it WAS a stunning upset in Blue Georgia

Yeah. Right.

[Stevepol]

3. Why isn't there one option: "No, Chambliss won because of the voting machines"?

There's no way to know that of course, just as there's no way to know anything about the election at all since it all took place in cyberspace on Premier (read: Diebold) touch screens. It comes down to what you believe. If you think Chambliss won, well and good. No evidence to prove it. If you think Martin won, well and good. No evidence to prove it.

No evidence at all.

There's no reason to have the slightest confidence in an election that took place in a state that is no longer a democracy. Same can be said for AL and with almost the same truth of TX and many other states in our once democratic country.

5. Ya know

Some people here still think that elections can't/wouldn't be stolen, that's why there was not that option listed.

I wonder sometimes if the same people think that Bushco couldn't/wouldn't LIE to us about WMD in Iraq? It does ring with some similarity, eh?

8. Yes, you are correct, I should have included that as a choice. n/t

4. Osama bin Laden could have campaigned for Chumpbliss

and he still would have won.

6. non-filabuster proof congress was probably a bigger consideration

People were talking about the ability to filabuster undesirable legislation like a AWB reauthorization.

[BrklynLiberal]

11. The irony is that the Dems might get a filibuster proof vote on certain occasions

with the help of certain moderate Republicans. And not all the Dems can be counted on to help in some of those votes. Martin was not the breaking point of the filibuster vote. But that may have been used to get the "base" out there to vote.

7. seeing as to how Obama won by such a huge number in Georgia, I dont understand the Martin loss

[KoKo]

9. S**T! I'm the only one who knows it was Palin appearing 3 Times that Swung the vote?

That CRAZY/LIMBAUGH RW FUNDIE CROWD..is DEFINITELY RUNNING: Jeb Bush/Sarah Palin for 2010 and 2012...because PALIN GOT CHAMBLISS ELECTED FOR GEORGIA! FUNDIES GO CRAZY FOR PALIN!

:puke:

[ColbertWatcher]

10. LOL! n/t

[KoKo]

12. You KILLED THE THREAD...so ambiguous...who could know what you meant? n/t

[ColbertWatcher]

15. Why do people just post vague things when everyone else is contributing deep probing comments? n/t

[KoKo]

13. Of COURSE SHE WAS....down there in GA and SC they LOVES THEM SOME PALIN!

It keeps the GALS DOWN ON THE FARM SHOOTIN' GUNS and getting PREGNANT and The BOYS DOING THAT STUFF THEY DO! You must not know the DEEP SOUTH to ask that question. :eyes:

[Hippo_Tron]

14. Gee an incumbent Republican won in a red state and Palin thinks it's all because of her

That sounds like Palin.
