Totally unscientific, but almost dead on

7-11 Coffee Poll

I saw on CNBC this morning that it was based on over a million cups of coffee per day that were sold. I couldn't find anything to backup that. I get my morning coffee from the 7-11, I only saw the cup there starting a few weeks ago

It's now more accurate than the Redskins-playing-at-home predictor.

I drink 7-11 coffee too almost daily. The funny thing is for weeks I paid no attention to whether I was buying a Bush or Kerry cup. They looked almost identical and the little sleeve to keep your hand from burning off completely covered the candidates names.

So God only knows how many times I voted for Bush inadvertantly Shocked

About the sample--At my 7-11 the only cup with the poll on it was the 20 ouncer. So I think this demographic was skewed heavily towards the seriously caffeine dependent like myself.

LOL

At least it wasn't skewed toward the females like all the other exit polls apparently were. Wink

I normally drink 16 oz, but when I saw the 20 oz. Bush cups, I had to support my candidate
