4. Edit your SL; the question is did it help the GOP chances...
Edited on Mon Sep-08-08 10:04 AM by blondeatlast
Confusing phrasing; typical of CNN.

6. What an inane question. They are a formidable and effective team.
I'm watching Biden now, by the way, on cnn.com live in Wisconsin. He's rockin'!

11. One of those EASY TO MISREAD polls by RW CNN.
Did Obama's selection of Biden as a running mate help the GOP?

How many people are going to "see" the last two words? They'll read Obama, Biden, and help and answer Yes.

13. Stupid question, poorly worded
I used to create online quickie polls for a news site, and it's trickier than you'd think, but day-um, this one sucks rocks. So much for the assumption that professional news outlets corner the market on all the talent and brains.

18. Done- What a dumb question CNN is asking!
That's the best they can come up with?

Biden never helped the GOP's chances-
they are very nervous around him for a
good reason.

:kick:

19. What the hell kind of poll is that???????????
Edited on Mon Sep-08-08 10:12 AM by TwoSparkles
So, CNN is using a poll to further the notion that Biden is so bad for
the Democratic ticket, and that it's helping the Republicans?

After nearly a week of this sick Palin-fest--we've got CNN propagating
the notion that Biden is a bad pick.

How in the hell!!!!

We've got an inexperienced, extremist "hockey mom" with no foreign
policy experience and a truckload of scandals---and Joe Biden--the
head of the Senate Armed Services Committee with decades of foreign
policy experience....and Biden is a bad choice?

Bastards.

21. Help them what? Make a cynical sarcastic choice for McCain's VP?
Lose the 2008 Presidential Election? Make themselves look like jack asses (please no offense to the jack ass)? Give them a reason to run on a personalities only/issues be damned platform? Ignore America and Americans in need for the next 58 days solely to play a numbers game with rabid pollsters and media morans?

Well, okay....I guess it helped. :banghead:
