    Well no, it's a poll AOL put up.

    I doubt that they have allowed only conservatives to vote on it.

    I voted on it. Anyone else who managed to come upon this page can cast their vote, as well as many people who still use AOL as their main home page. I would tend to think that AOL users are not politically motivated one way or the other and represent the usual spectrum of conservatives, liberals and independents.

    Perhaps, but it's not a statistically valid sampling like the Opinion Research poll that you cited as a source. As the note right under the poll states . . .

    Opinions differ . . .

    U.S. recession over, unemployment seen at 10 percent

    Moody's Economy.com report: Recession over in 79 metro areas in U.S.

    Recession over? Five signs Bernanke may be right
