It's ironic that people claim such things as "surprising that someone from the internet got people to vote for them *yawn*". If someone got enough people to vote for them regardless of what source they used and won something like... oh I don't know... Time magazines most influential person of the year, I believe that it''s probably because they're... well... highly influential. This wasn't Time magazines vote for the years most ignorant person, other wise someone who was ignorant might have won, like Obama. Seriously though, if citizens are allowed to vote on the most influential person of the year, the person who wins obviously influenced the 3million or so people who voted for them, Moot is influential, deal with it.
