I was on CNN this morning and saw a poll asking “If you had the chance, would you want to go to the Olympics in Beijing?”. I thought to myself, “If someone gave me a ticket and said go to China and watch the best athletes in the world perform, would I go? Well yeah I would go, in a hearbeat.”  So, doing something I don’t normally do I clicked yes and then submitted my vote.  Then I saw the results.

You are kidding me!  69% of readers would not want to go to the Olympics if they had the chance.  I know the poll isn’t scientific, but still, I would expect at least a 50/50 split on this.  Do people really thing that by not going to the Olympics we are really going to change the Chinese government?
