Don't put any stock in these silly poll results. Since anyone can vote for the same politician as many times as they feel like it, and since the poll is deliberately rigged to give Ron Paul votes even when he wasn't the one voted for, it is just another Ron Paul propoganda tool.

I personally voted for Fred Thompson twice, Hillary Clinton once, Chris Dodd once, and watched three of those four votes increase Ron Paul's total. Only the vote I made for Chris Dodd actually increased Chris Dodd's total by one. It's just another typical Ron Paul Internet scam.

LOL, I'd love to know who these spammers/scammers for Paul are. I've never voted in any of these online polls that are supposedly rigged for Paul. What about the ones from the major networks, which get pulled down as soon as Paul pulls away? Are they rigged for Paul? Oh, wait, no, the Paul spammers hack those. Good trick, since those polls most surely limit users to one vote per IP address.

You have obviously never heard about alias IP addresses. I can manufacture thousands of valid IP addresses, each one allowing me to vote for whomever I choose. Even if you don't create alias IP addresses, most users use dynamic IP addressing from the ISP. So every time they connect, they get a different IP address, allowing them to vote again, and again, and again.

The most likely culprit behind these bogus Ron Paul web polls is the creator of the poll.

300 spammers contributed 6 million in one day and 4 million another. Ron Paul has no chance.

According to whom, Ron Paul? ROFLMAO! Certainly not according to the FEC, the ONLY credible source.

I guess we will see when the reports come out for 4th quarter. btw: you know the campaigns are responsible for what the FEC receives, right? Hillary knows.

Absolutely. I also know that what candidates tell the media varies significantly from what they report to the FEC. They can lie to the media and get away with it, but if they try lying to the FEC they may end up in prison.
