Indeed, freep them big - vote Edwards. Show the world what a joke online polls are.
You are assuming that the Liberal Media Bigwigs possess the aggregate brain power greater than a potato bug; this is a dangerous gamble. I do not believe that the big media giants are intellectually capable of realizing satire, especially when they can declare themselves a winner by any means possible.
Remember the Florida election? They claim that Gore would have won, because the media and Democratic party stated that voters were too stupid to figure out a butterfly ballot. Pleading stupidity is nothing to be ashamed of, if you are a Democrat (which really makes a lot of sense when you think about it).
