Hey it's a opinion poll from Bernie. Yep those Florida ****s are headed up by an ex-Utard.

The folks at USN&WR are going to be thrilled beyond word to find out that the responses to their confidential poll can be obtained by FOIA request. That will suck quite a bit of the candid nature out of their results.:rolleyes:
