Watching Bush-bashing Gold Star mom Cindy Sheehan's press coverage, you'd think she has won the hearts and minds of Americans by universal acclamation.
But a massive poll by America Online suggests that Sheehan is actually losing the public opinion battle by a landslide.
Asked: "Do you agree with Sheehan's views?" Cindy's supporters trail her critics, 56 to 44 percent, with nearly 290,000 Americans responding to the technically unscientific survey. Asked, "Do you agree with Sheehan's tactics?" Cindy faired even worse, losing that contest 59 to 44 percent.
Other, much smaller "scientific" surveys also show Sheehan losing support, but by smaller margins.
Geeeee...if the pools weren't rigged...folks would realize she never had much support to begin with.
HAHAHHAHHHAHAHA...pools=polls.
The circus is not fun anymore when the clown goes home.
Cindy who?
On-line polls are about as dependable as Tarot cards. Sheesh!
How do 59 and 44 add up? Something is very strange in this poll!!
What do they mean.....fading. She never ever had the support of the American people.
103 % is normal. ; )
Oh, so a self-selected poll is a "technically unscientific survey".
I suppose the St. Louis Cardinals lost the World Series last year on a technicality. They merely lost the first four games.
The MSM is soooo pathetic
If the numbers were reversed, showing support for Cindy, they simply would have said, "with 290,000 Americans responding to the survey. However, since the numbers don't jive with what the MSM would want them to be, they add the little "technically unscientific" disclaimer.
What a bunch of losers.

Seems that it is really hard to intellectualize grief.
It's Million Mom Math.
Today they no longer are.
The counter-culture movement is recognized today by more and more Americans as a silly, iconoclastic tantrum, unrelated to the nobility of the Civil Rights Movement, its devotees tiresome old worn-out hippies and other loosers who have nothing to do with the idealism and basic human decency that fired the assaults on racism, no matter what their wearisome, shallow, self-aggrandizing claims may be.
You got it. Glad to see people can see through the bias of the MSM writing so well.
I am stunned beyond words, just stunned. She is now old news since she went home and is not on the front lines of protest anymore. No longer matters.
Is the sideshow still there? The fat man is always good for a few laughs.
That grafting happened when communists got MLK Jr. to hop onboard their income and housing protests. Moved the goal post beyond racial discrimination to class politics of "rich" vs. "poor".
What support?
Hell, the media was her primary support. You can only sell something worth nothing for so long...
