Second, the (now very old) polling numbers have driven the drumbeat of "she's way behind".
Perhaps she's not. Perhaps she's gaining.
Just saying.
well, I haven’t seen any polls from SC either. Probably for the same reason.
Has the O’Donnell campaign done any internal polling of its own?
Same thing going on in Georgia with the governors race.The rat bastard barnes is throwing everything at Nathan Deal including the kitchen sink but to no avail.The polsters says it tightening but that may be the hype.
What's up wid dat, Scott??
No polls of New York, either! A dozen pollsters polled within a couple days of the primary... then nobody has conducted a poll since. Since the primary days’ pollsters’ results varied from the Democrats leading by only one, to leading by twenty-six, you’d think someone would want to find out what’s going on, wouldn’t you?
My real suspicion: Most of these new pollsters (Rasmussen, SurveyUSA, Zogby, Research2000) aren’t really basing their results on just their own poll data, but are looking over their shoulders for clues to interpreting their poll data. When they get data from other pollsters, they’re happy to chime in. When that data is lacking, they clam up. It makes it even tougher for them when their unofficial sources go berzerk (Gallup, Siena), silent (Mason-Dixon), or get pressured to produce left-leaning data (PPP, IPSOS, AP, etc.)
Maybe no one is paying to see the results in DE.
It's such a small state, rather than take a small sample, you could poll the whole damn state... just kidding, don't get your Delawareian knickers in a knot.
Well they had Rachel Maddow in Delaware for last nights show. Why would they go there? They tried to enter O’Donnels campaign center for questions.
What is there about the O’Donnell supporters that they see EVERYTHING as a dark conspiracy?
It would seem peculiar to open a thread on Wednesday complaining it’s not Saturday. Saturday isn’t due on Wednesday.
Likewise it’s been less then a month since the last polls were released on Delaware. New polls aren’t quite due yet either.
The last regular Rasmussen release was 9/26/10. The last CNN/Time was 9/17-21/10. The last PPP was 9/11-12/10.
Not that this is likely to stop additional “what are they hiding” threads. Rove and dark forces everywhere, right ?
Wonder how her “I am You” ad is playing out in Delaware. It is very different. Sugar sweet and a pleasure to watch - but how will the undecided see it?

I liked the ad. Rush didn’t and others didn’t care for it.
It came off well because of her charm and personality.
Now that she’s gone there, maybe she should put that behind her and concentrate on issues.
Actually, there is a new poll out today-bad news for COD. Don’t know how reliable the poll is-hopefully not reliable at all.
