CNN poll: Should the US postpone the election?

[grasswire]

My God. Shameless!

Should the U.S. postpone the presidential election in case of a terrorist attack?

1. 97 percent no

with more than 1600 voting.

2. I didn't see a "Hell No!" option.

but I voted anyways.

5. Postponing the elections would be a

lose-lose situation for the American people: Bush would stay in power just long enough to find a way to perpetuate himself permanently, and the terrorists would win because they stopped the democratic process in America dead in it's tracks!
:puke: :puke:

15. Not only that but it would suggest that

Bush is "in charge" of America's destiny and a lot of sheeple would vote accordingly for Shit-for-Brains.

3. As usual, Bushco backing off crazy idea

when something doesn't poll well, they back down. Flip flop. I think they do it just to see if they can get away with it.

4. It is really such a vague question.

Attacked where? When? Postpone how long?

[RC]

6. Why don't they ask

in one one of these polls how many years these criminals should get in Leavenworth?

Yeah, this one should have had HELL @$%^& NO!!! selection.

7. I'd like to meet the 62 people that said yes

And ask them for forced sterilization so they don't pass their ignorant DNA into future generations

[RoeBear]

11. I think you are jumping to a conclusion...

If the 'terrorist' attacks where held in key Democratic strongholds I'd say that there might be a case for postponing the election; for a very short time period.

8. How about

'This is a stupid question, you media idiots!" option.

[Jack Rabbit]

9. I see its 97% no with 2000+ votes cast

I don't know how that would look in a scientific poll, but I'm sure the figure opposed to a postponement would remain high.

That has got to reflect the distrust of the Bushies that has been present since the coup d'etat of 2000 and probably means there is an increasing distrust of him for allowing this kind of talk.

10. I don't think we need to worry about this one being freeped.

Freepers think it's an awful idea as well.

[flordehinojos]

12. HELL NO!

Plain and simple: Hell No!

[Anwen]

13. Still 97% NO with 2292 votes n/t

[Generic Other]

14. I am always surprised when we Americans are able to agree about anything

97% suggests we are fundamentally inflexible about the importance of elections. I'm glad.

Now how do we get that percentage of those eligible to vote?
