19. I voted yes, but somehow the question seems to be slanted toward the answe

answer should be no. I can't put my finger on what is wrong with the wording of the quesion, but something is not quite right about it. IMHO

I voted for the Abromoff scandal. It will be the most damaging to Washington.

[leesa]

26. They changed the poll, but isn't it interesting that people think Delay's

conspiracy is the biggest news. Shows people know something's up with this. I would so LOVE to see Delay end up with a conspiracy to commit murder charge...along with the multitude of others, of course.

[Catchawave]

29. Yes they did.....

I voted for the troop cuts one, though I know I should be just as concerned with GM's layoffs...oy.
