I think this is a bad idea.
You are no better than them if you try to manipulate results. In addition, you end up with a "loss". To me, this is a lose-lose strategy.
I agree, this is a very bad idea.
People DO believe those online polls, and 19 days before the election is NOT the time to try to educate them.
So freep those online polls! Vote your true views, not a lie.
My view: Kerry handily "won" the first debate, though Bush was truer to the mark on the facts. In the Veep debate, Cheney beat Edwards thoroughly, even though Gwen Ifill was trying very hard to help Edwards. Kerry narrowly won the second debate, though Bush did better that time. Bush finally won one in the third debate, and he did so very convincingly, IMO.
