Latest poll: Bush 49, Kerry 2

America Online is conducting a state-by-state straw poll of its users. Currently, Bush holds the lead in 49 states, while Kerry is ahead in Vermont and the District of Columbia. If this were an actual election, Bush would win with 532 electoral votes, to 6 for Kerry.

Ah, if it could only be true.

America Online.. there's a representative sample. People who are willing to overpay for dialup.

No other poll agrees with that. Interesting.

ALL polls at this stage are useless and meaningless.

LOL. Wow. AOL is truth!

You have to admire AOL users though, I mean, they get shafted month after month from this company and yet, they remain loyal. After all, AOL is the intarweb.

Isn't consistently getting shafted and remaining loyal one of the bastions of working-class Republicanism?

Oh, but of course!

What's even worse? The people who think that the Republican tax cuts are going to actually help them, when in fact they're simply in denial about being working-class. To me, they are the NADIR of intelligence.

I think it was supposed to be NADER. But, NADIR, NADER, what's the difference?

"Isn't consistently getting shafted and remaining loyal one of the bastions of working-class Republicanism?"

No, it is the bastion of Democrat loving/voting:

1 - blacks
2 - teachers unions
3 - other unions

What have the Dems done for these groups, who consistently vote about 80 - 90 percent Dem?

One could also ask what the Republicans have done for these groups.

I just feel like stirring stuff up to entertain me at work...
