Has DFA announced the results of the poll yet? if not, WHY NOT?
Dennis was leading solidly all the way through the last couple of days, his lead was growing at the end. Did somebody powerful tell them to make sure to rejigger it so that Dennis doesn't actually win in the end?

Wouldn't surprise me.

8. Well, the voting was already over by the time that was introduced.
I wonder if that had anything to do with when the voting deadline was set?

3. But how could they not be ready? All the votes came in last night!
Sorry, but I just don't trust this.

4. Because DK was in the lead.
That's my guess.

Wouldn't surprise me one bit. MANY are deeply invested in the status quo.

6. Maybe it was Gore's definitive comment yesterday
that made them say WTF?

They'll have to run another poll without Gore in it.

Kucinich will win by even more, IMO.

9. Which definitive comment?
Is that the one where he said he 'certainly had no plans' to serve in a cabinet post... while still maintaining only that he had 'no plans' to be a candidate?

:crazy:

10. I didn't say it was *certainly* definitive.
Just definitive.

11. I know you didn't...
I thought maybe he'd made an actual definitive statement.

To be honest his waffling around on it is really starting to get on my nerves.

12. Like my Aunt Margaret used to say when we'd play Canasta....
"Crap, or get off the pot."
