Poll question: Should Poll Posts Be Banned from DU?
Edited on Wed Jan-09-08 09:55 AM by rocknation
After watching both Hillary and Obama's predicted double-digit primary leads disappear, I don't know how much more proof you need that their only use is for generating false hope. I say that polls should be banned from DU until after Super Tuesday, at least. Are you with me or against me?

2. I don't know - you could just, you know, not look at them.

5. If posting links from "certain" sources is banned, polls should be banned
Neither offers anything resembling useful, reliable information.

6. You post a poll to make an argument that polls should be banned?
Is that like saying, "I have to take special interest money to run, but that money will not affect my decisions?"
