Hmmmm. I just found this, a blog hosted by the guy who put this poll on line: http://wgnradio.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=39654&Itemid=465
He complains about the pro-gun crowd gaming the results of an earlier poll, but it appears that the anti-gun forces actually may have resorted to poll-bots that were posting up to 200 "no" votes per minute!

It's climbing in the right direction: 67% and change in favor, $32% and change against. The mayor had better get speed-dial if he wants to stem this tide.

Final results: 73% in favor of concealed carry.
Oh Dear.... 
This will not be well received by King Richard the Second. First there was that upsetting business about the now-former governor, then people started asking questions about his stooge in Washington, and there are even problems with the most recent appointment to the U.S. Senate.
You people should be ashamed of yourselves.

LOL!
That Obamaforum (as someone already mentioned) is a parody, none of it is serious. It's a joke. It's not real. The posters there are made up characters. The posts are all purposefully over the top. I don't know how else to say it, yall are pretty gullible.
Think of it as reverse trolling: the forum is the troll and those who come there out of seriousness are the victim.
Same concept here: http://www.landoverbaptist.org/
It's a brilliant idea really, I'd never heard about forums like this until recently.

I voted to change it so that no one under 12 gets into an R rated movie.

These kinds of so called "polls" make me want to puke. The problem is a lot of people are uninformed enough to take them seriously.

Citation that this a parody,Mr.Brilliant?
I thought that it was fairly obvious that theobamaforum.com was a satirical parody?
ex1: http://www.mikehuckabeeforum.com/ - Read the posts, seriously, and tell me that it's serious. Look at the mast head: crosses, star of David, and a crescent and star crossed out.
ex2: http://www.landoverbaptist.org/ - "Where the worthwhile worship. Unsaved unwelcome!" C'mon now, it's a parody of modern evangelicals.
like I said, I think it's a hilarious concept: usually trolls mess with the board, but in these cases they're troll boards and the people who aren't in on the joke get on and post thinking it's serious.
I just love your FHYB.
You're right, the site is a joke, it has to be. I went through and read some of the threads and there is just no way that people who are that completely stupid could manage to work a computer and post on the forum, unless they started making keyboards with ebonics.
