Media REFUSES to say the words "Edwards won"

I've heard exactly the same words from different talking-head-bots on MSNBC (mebbe I should switch channels, eh?)

Their online poll puts Cheney at 41%, Edwards at 59%. Decisive Edwards win, no? No.

They say instead:

"41% of you say that Cheney won the debate, while 59% think that Edwards made a stronger showing."

"Cheney won the debate"
"Edwards made a stronger showing"

Assholes. They just can't bring themselves to say, say, "By a 59/41 margin, poll responders say Edwards won the debate". Jackasses.
