The Upoc poll goes to approximately 100,000 subscribers with a 10-20% response rate.
This is of course a non-scientific poll, but is interesting nonetheless. It shows almost an exact 
split between a positive response ("Explained everything" and "Satisfied") and the negative choice ("Explained nothing"). Since two of the three possible answers are positive, I would have to admit that the poll structure had a positive bias. With that bias and the significance that this speech has been given by the campaigns and the media, our result would clearly indicate that this issue will not fade away in the near future, and that more explanation from the Obama camp will be necessary.
