Overzealous supporters sometimes cross the line...
Permalink  

Was just perusing Meridian Magazine between phone calls, and noticed the following notice on their poll section...  Reminded me that we had had a conversation here a couple weeks or more ago about their then existing poll and how I was saying it seemed skewed compared to other polls they had held in the past. 

Due to Ron Paul supporters hacking into our account, the Poll has been changed: How often do you have FHE?

I suppose it is possible. It is equally possible that Meridian couldn't stand the idea that someone other then the LDS candidate was generating that kind of support and so it MUST have been hackers. There is just no way that so many LDS could possibly be supporting anyone except Romney.

Yea, cause we all know there is no mindless support of Romney by many LDS because he is LDS.

Your logic is flawed due to your desire to see your candidate in a positive light, Mirk. You can't have it both ways. Either we're all mindless supporters, or there were hackers.

Hmmmm.......your statement still doesn't make sense. Let's say that there really were hackers. How does that make "my candidate" look bad? He didn't do it. It's not like he said he was for hackers and then said he was for hackers. That would make him look bad. If he said it and not some supporter of his said it.

Nope...no chance at all that the support was really there. None. Zip. Nada. It was definitely hackers.

Hey...that means secret combinations.

Crackers vs. who is actually being voted for and by how many is easy to prove. It just takes the webadmins to peruse the server logs.

Note: the correct term is crackers not hackers, hackers modify hardware to do cool/interesting things. Crackers crack the security codes/passwords to do cool/interesting/annoying things.

Mirk: You're right. The logical inconsistency was Romney and Hackers, it was that there were so many Ron Paul Supporters among mormons, when mormons are mindless Romney fans... you suggested that Meridian would blame Ron Paul supporters on stacking the survey because they could never realize the truth (according to you) that there are so many who support him.

I'm glad to see that Ron Paul is making Americans squirm. In NH, 2 hand count towns reported 0 votes for candidate Ron Paul to the media, even though they did have votes for him. The town of Sutton reported zero, but had 31 votes; the town of Greenville reported zero, but had 25 votes. The two towns had misreported results affecting exactly the same candidate in exactly the same way.

At this point, both D and R candidates have requested recounts.

Overzealous is correct.

Ron Paul supporters have placed a Ron Paul sign over and under every freeway crossing I have come across in the Phoenix area and there are tons of 8X10 signs plastered all over.

They are ugly.

The signs are all over the place down here too...fallling off poles and littering the sides of roads...
