I have been intrigued by the idea that there will be a national straw poll taken by Myspace
beofre the New Hampshire Primary. Over 50 million users a month roughly, over the age of 18
will be able to express a preference. Of course anyone can work at adding profiles, it only takes a few minutes to sign up.
Early consensus is building for an Obama, Edwards, ? finish...Hillary may be third...will it be meaningful ?
Yes and a yardstick for the upcoming Primary season. Right now I assume its not a l'similar election'
Read on with quotes from Blue Hamster Rep. Jim Splaine from Union Leader article
New Hampshire primary defender Rep. Jim Splaine, D-Portsmouth, called it a good thing.

New Hampshire law requires the New Hampshire primary to be held at least seven days ahead of any "similar election.'' Is an online primary a similar election? Of course not, says Secretary of State Bill Gardner.
He said it's more like a poll. But, he mused, "it doesn't end, does it? The power of the mind of man...."
