1. Oh, I dunno if it's being heavily freeped.
It's at 40/60 against him winning. Taking into account all the usual freep votes, plus your average non-political junkie who thinks "What did the guy do? I mean it's just a movie for God's sake," plus people who vote no because they think someone else should win (Sheila Watt-Cloutier, maybe, or the Save the Children Foundation), and I'd say the vote is about where I'd expect it to be.

6. And some are only going to base their votes on whether or not he is running if he receives it
I mean, that is the perception put into peoples' heads by the media and others, so the polling is already skewed because it isn't on the whole based on people voting who will base their answer on the merits of his work, but on political speculation. Polls. blah.

10. Wow ...
That must have started going bad for them in a hurry.

The poll has been replaced by a different one about "What stresses you out ?".

Cheers

13. Just because ...
