  the logic to check if a user has voted uses a loop, its better to just let the db to it...

      def vote_for?(user)
        vote = Vote.find_by_user_id_and_voteable_type_and_voteable_id(user.id, self.class.name, self.id)
        return false = vote == nil
        return true
      end

  I found this after writing an almost identical plugin myself. One difference is that I used validatesuniquenessof :voterid, :scope => [:voteabletype, :voteable_id] in my Vote model to make sure that a particular user can't vote more than once, which I think is a good way to do it. Stop them at the model in case you accidentally leave a hole in your controller.
