I think we would be wise to stop linking to and voting in various web polls with the plea to "Please DU this poll."
Why are we doing that? It simply serves to make their polls look fairer than they are. Most of the time, their questions are so poorly worded as to make a cogent response almost impossible.
I'd rather see DUers avoid supporting these polls entirely. Let their hit count drop in half. Let the polls show a 100% "Yes" response to "Do you think GWB is actually Jeebus?"
The smart thing to do is to ignore them and let their credibility sink under the weight of their idiocy.
Stop enabling the enemy.
