I thought Luntz recently paid her some compliments and said that she would shake up the race, that she was a very gifted politician with a passionate following, etc.

The quotes on this thread sound totally different from what he said recently.

It would appear he's been gotten to... probaly someone telling him, "We were going to hire you for alot of polling, but we don't like you saying nice things about that woman... how about a little "good faith" damage control there, Frankie?"

Last Sunday on "This week" (the Disney News show), Luntz was a guest on their panel. I'm not sure what happened. Maybe he was just trying to fit in. Maybe he had too much to drink before going on the air. Maybe it wasn't really Frank Luntz, but a double that ABC hired to read their script.

Whatever the explanation, in between changing feet, some truly weird words came out of his mouth, including something about there being no room for Sarah Palin in the Republican Primary races because she occupies the same space as Michele Bachmann.

He was also pushing Chris Christie and Paul Ryan as potential additional candidates.

Maybe he thought they were making a movie for Disney and he was playing a part in it and had to read the script.

Yeah, I heard him say some really nice stuff this week. It is just that there is no room for any criticisam at all of Palin.

That said, it is perfectly okay to savagely criticise the candidates that are actually running.

So, everyone who dares offer a little criticism is added to the naughty list.
