In the last 48 hours I've received about 10 different requests - to my work and personal email accounts - to challenge the Right (capitalization email's, not mine) by voting in a PBS poll asking if Sarah Palin is qualified to be Vice President. It's easy enough to click "No" (and to do so over and over again since it will let you do that) but I can't figure out why it matters. Why am I being asked to participate in this completely passive way in an online poll? Will getting more "No" than "Yes" votes somehow beat the Right?
Most importantly, does anyone besides Left-leaning liberals pay attention to PBS polls?
This seems about as significant as voting for America's Favorite Dancer during the two hours after an episode of So You Think You Can Dance that phone lines are open.
I think instead of sitting around endlessly clicking "No," I'll make a donation to the Obama campaign.
