National Review Poll: Do you believe Ron Paul supporters spam NRO polls?

[GeorgiaAvenger]

If we did, we suck at it .

This from yesterday

This from two days ago

This is getting desperate.

 

[ChrisDixon]

If we didn't matter, this poll wouldn't exist. Clearly we're doing something right!

Not sure if you are backing me up or not, haha. I am just saying, if we were spamming we would be winning by huge margins. No one that I have heard of is clearing their cache and voting more than once. I am sure there is a few people who do, but they act like we all do. That's a bad assumption.

I was just pointing out that we haven't really flooded their polls the past two days.

Right. Because those polls didn't get much attention. Now that all you people are voting in this one, it will get attention. If you really wanted to 'prove' to them that we don't spam polls, you'd either a.) leave the poll alone or b.) vote 'yes' in the poll. If 'No' starts increasing rapidly, they have their 'proof.'

I'll say it again and see if anyone catches the irony on this:

There's a poll for this.

So, if Ron Paul supporters spam their polls, and the poll makers get the answer they want, then are they wrong? Are they right? Doesn't that, in some way, affect the credibility of their polls? lmao

Trying to side-step the truth is a dangerous biz.

That's stupid. If we DO, we'll just spam this one too and say we don't, and so it'll be NO.

If we don't, then it'll probably say yes because we didn't hear about the poll and everybody else did.

This reminds me of those "liers and truthtellers" town brainteasers.

Uh no. Spamming means that idiots repost a poll all over the Internet to get people to vote in the poll, far beyond the typical vote response and readership of the original source. Thus, why it is so incredulously stupid for us to post these meaningless polls all over the place. If you typically read NRO, vote in the poll. If you don't, then don't vote.

I don't get this. How is it cheating to tell other supporters about a poll they might want to vote in? Supporters of other candidates do the exact same thing, as a matter of fact I have seen it happen many times on other political forums. Other politicians simply don't have enough active supporters to beat us.

What's wrong with this? Shows we are organized. Using this logic we shouldn't organize voters to vote in elections and caucuses? It's the same idea.
