Today's Christmas Poll

"Merry Christmas" is still by far the preferred greeting this time of year:

When asked what holiday spirit they are feeling, a strong majority of voters -- 75 percent -- still answers with “Merry Christmas,” according to a Fox News poll released Friday, while about one in five voters (22 percent) say they feel obligated to say “Happy Holidays” these days.

Three in 10 voters say they would stop shopping at a store that refused to allow employees to say “Merry Christmas” and required them to say “Happy Holidays” instead, . For 65 percent, it wouldn’t make any difference and they would continue to shop at that store.

But nearly half of Republicans (46 percent) and white born-again Christians (48 percent) would stop shopping at a store that refused to allow employees to say “Merry Christmas.”

Count me among those who don't choose their stores based on greetings.  If they have a good deal on what I want they can say "Hail Obama!" if they wish.
