I've been pondering who to vote for today - it was this that swung it for me:

I do hope so.
In the Second Age, Sauron turned many to his will: most of Numenor, the Nazgul, the Voice of Sauron, whoever he once was, the Dead Men (before they were dead). Those most vunerable to his lure were those who were attracted by the glamour of power, who could be persuaded that "might was right".
Now he's doing it to the viewers as well. You can see his influence right here in this thread. It's like that bit in "The Ring" (the Japanese horror flick, I mean, not Wagner or Tolkien) when the girl crawls out of the telly to get you. *shudder*
It's getting creepy and it must stop.
