+CNBC’s managing editor Allen Wastler justifies taking down a post-Republican-debate poll in which Ron Paul got 75% of the vote, saying: “When a well-organized and committed ‘few’ can throw the results of a system meant to reflect the sentiments of ‘the many,’ I get a little worried. I’d take it down again.” Sound logic. Bush got just over 50% of the vote in the last presidential election. Since a little over half of all eligible U.S. citizens voted, that puts Bush’s electoral support at roughly 25 percent of the nation. What now Mr. Wastler? [CNBC, Wikipedia]
