Absolutely right. I think all this was gamed out ahead of time by the 'Rats. Their initial gambit was to keep Torricelli viable by keeping the scandals buried by their friends in the media. When this scheme fell apart you can tell by the smooth transition to Lousyberg (the Pallone and others scrimmage was just a smokescreen) that this was their fallback plan. Lousyberg is well-known in Jersey and has a lot of money. They just did their bait-and-switch, and now what was a potentillay lost seat is theirs for the picking, assuming the USSC doesn't throw a wrench into the plans. But even if they do, what do the 'Rats have to lose by trying? Torricelli was going down anyway, so why not roll the dice and pull the wool over the sheeple's eyes one more time?

Yep. Add to that the turntable effect this poll has. The Pubs have been saying that the Rats motive was their fear of losing--polling. Now watch the Rats use the same argument against the Pubs case before the SCOTUS.

And they will say "this poll proves the will of the people of NJ." Watch them use this poll as evidence. I wonder if we can find out if they ran this poll last week too.
