What she said.

(I've felt a little differently about that quotation ever since I realized how clearly it applies to Al-Qaeda, but nonetheless...)

Yeah, I love that they tried so hard to skew the results and found out that they can't quietly slip this one by.

Yeah, it won't change any minds, but it won't be used against us either.

[minnehaha.livejournal.com]

Instead, we get to skew the results. Just as unscientific, but much more fun.

They're not based in somwhere in Florida -- that'd be too cool -- but apparently they're in Tupelo, MS, the birthplace of Elvis.

So... I think they had it coming. :)

Yeah, I know it's not representative, it's the two more militant edges without the moderates weighing in, but I like it.. a lot.

If present trends continue...

I'd love to see the expressions on the faces over at the AFA...

[intelligentrix.livejournal.com]

I wonder if they'll still send the results on...

[hal-obrien.livejournal.com]

Yes, that is the big question, innit? They still say they will, on their home page.

To cook the results...

[fearsclave.livejournal.com]

...not to cook the results, or quietly suffer a massive and convenient hard drive crash; that will be their question.

right on

That's some Tupelo honey right there. Woot!

[yonmei.livejournal.com]

Oooh, nice one.

They were trying to skew the results a day or so ago - removed 3000 votes from the pro-legalization - but I think they must have got a bunch of complaints with screen-shot evidence.

I'm impressed!

It gets better!
