Yesterday's diary pointed people to a poll and 205 people took it. This poll should show deeper information than the usual straw poll because instead of being limited to picking a favorite this poll allowed for a -10 to 10 rating of each choice and two write-ins. To some extent the results still convey the general trends observable in other DailyKos straw polls:

I'd like to thank the DailyKos community for coming out and putting in those 205 votes. You also helped me find a couple bugs in the BetterPolls.com software. I'm not posting the link to the full results because I might not get those bugs fixed until later tonight. (No votes were lost, just mis-counted in one out of the four independent counts. I'll fix the bug and they'll be counted right. Also, I do give away the source code to the counting functions.)
Update [2006-1-16 16:24:34 by bolson]: bug fixed. 111KB html table results here.
