I swear CNN runs more polls on any given day.

Anyway, I freeped it.

Yes 44%

No 47%

Not far enough 9%

I CANNOT believe they put the negative answer as NO, THE BENEFITS GO TO THE WRONG PEOPLE

Well, for anyone who voted NO, screw you! I do not like being called the "wrong people."

Totally intentional. A sure indication of bias, imo. They do this all the time.

Also, notice how some polls stay a long time and others are gone in half-a-day? They pull the ones that have "conservative-friendly" results asap.

I would LIKE to see it go further, but voted "yes" because that's how people will judge favorability in W's plan vs. the 'Rats.

This poll...and probably all CNN online polls...is bogus. I voted yesterday and copied the result page (voted yes) and our fellow freeper nicarlo did the same thing, within a few minutes of each other and the vote total for both of us came up as 2162. We both votes Yes and the vote total didn't change..could it be that CNN isn't properly recording Yes votes?

Gee, I wanted to vote No, but for none of those reasons attached. To stimulate the economy, government should cut spending, not increase the deficit. So my answer would have been No, cutting spending along with taxes benefits the economy. But since I didn't have that choice, the closest choice was to vote Yes.

http://www.vote.com has virtually the same question and they use cookies to control multiple votes giving their results quite a bit more validity.

Yep, that's true; we posted within a minute of each other, after voting, and came back with the same totals. Something's rotten in Denmark.
