Freeps are busting their asses on CNN's poll of the day....
How bout some DU Action?

"Will allegations that former Republican Rep. Mark Foley exchanged sexually explicit e-mails with a 16-year-old congressional page make it less likely you'll vote Republican in November?"

1. Be sure to vote several times, as I have been doing.
Really good indicator - not.

2. well to be honest - it was highly unlikely I was going to vote GOP
this November anyway - so this poll's question doesn't really have a good answer. If it was asking does this confirm most of the rotten things I've said about the GOP in washington, then I would vote yes.

4. It is a push/pull poll in it's wording
Democrats should stay away from answering this poll

Will allegations that former Republican Rep. Mark Foley exchanged sexually explicit e-mails with a 16-year-old congressional page make it less likely you'll vote Republican in November?

Yes 56% 34777 votes

No 44% 26985 votes
Total: 61762 votes

5. Well I'm not voting either way, but if I were I'd say no because
there ain't a chance in hell that I'd be voting Republican either way.

13. Actually it would be 'No' since there was a 0% chance of me
voting Republican to start with.

10. I hate Binary Polls.
CNN Loves them. Ugh.

I wasn't going to vote Republican in November, or indeed, in any month, year or decade that I can imagine. Foley's Follies has no impact on that one way or another.

11. one dimwit finally gets it. . . . almost
"Yes, it will affect my vote. As a Republican I am utterly shocked and disappointed at my party's hypocrisy: we are the party of personal responsibility - in name only appears. To put party politics above the safety of children is inexcusable. I can't bring myself to vote democratic, but I can't vote for the current people in power either. I'll have no choice but to stay home.... embarrassed for the GOP.
