Not only is it the holiday season, it is also the “poll” season as well, with new Republican presidential polling data seemingly being released almost every hour.  So it’s yet again time for another totally unscientific Shark Tank poll, as we’re only about 40 days removed from the Republican Primary here in Florida.

In the interests of sanity, we have no choice but to exclude Congressman Ron Paul from one of our presidential polls.  As most of you are aware, Paul sweeps to victory in virtually every online poll, as his well coordinated base of support quickly puts the word out about new Internet polls that include him.  His supporters quickly flood these online polls which then severely distort the true level of his support.

In lieu of including Ron Paul in the first poll, we’ll do his campaign and his supporters a solid by announcing that Ron Paul would have won our latest poll going away had we bothered to include him in it- but we’re not.

But don’t get too discouraged, Ron Paul supporters. We will add an extra poll that will include him, as you will see below.
