Note that it's online poll and certainly subject to people voting multiple times.

Surprising coming from the viewers of that particular network and his 60+% approval rating.

He still gets a bad grade even if you toss out the high and the low.

Boy you just know they HAD to throw the Ron Paul thing in there....My favorite memory of tje primary was Hannity squealing like a little schoolgirl that the RP people were spamming the polls. The bottom line is a "good" poll produces the results the poll taker wants and a "bad" one doesn't

No, the bottom line is an online survey isn't a poll and is subject to being freeped. In fact, I bet if you go to the freeper site, you will find a post urging people to go "vote".

He already gets and F and has lower approval ratings then bush did at the same time when he took office. looks like the stupid Americans that voted for him feel duped now.

I agree & the fact that anyone can vote multiple times makes the whole poll totally meaningless.

So the Obama people don't have a website? Or are they so busy redistributing my wealth that they didn't have time to vote?

Well I wouldn't go quite that far, I checked it and they must logging IP's of those who voted. It's not done through a cookie becuse I checked it with a separate browser, that would be trivial to get around. So someone could vote from work, maybe go to a couple wi-fi spots and vote again, do it at home etc. It wouldn't be an easy task to vote many times. The other issue is no one else from that wi-fi spot would be able to vote, if you're on a dynamic IP common on dial-up you could get blocked and never vote at all.

There's really no way to take a poll online and prevent a lot of fraud unless you recorded CC #'s or something like that.

I think it is funny how the polls were held in high praise when they were showing Bushes approval rating.
And now polls are very subjective and you can't believe a word they say when talking about Obama!!

THAT POLL SHOWS AN INVERTED "BELL CURVE" (OR WELL CURVE)

I think that indicates that he is LOVED by the same sheep that put him in office
and remains DISLIKED by the majority of others...

Those few falling in the center of the curve, the "well", weren't sure of the question in the first place :lol:
