you mean “hugh”. its hugh i tell you
Read the whole article. Look, I pay no attention to the NBA these days, but it’s Bill Simmons. He breaks it down. Well, somewhat.
Yes....evidently, supporters of candidate “x” think straw polls actually mean something when candidate “x” wins one in CA.....but then they think straw polls are meaningless if candidate “y” wins one in SC.....or candidate “z” wins one in TX.
Lemme get an accurate definition of hypocrisy....
The only polls that have real relevance in attempting to predict a vote 9 months from now are those with 400+ pollees that have been methodically vetted so that only “likely primary voters” are included.
Even then, this far out, THOSE polls only show name recognition, not even how well a campaing is going. The best poll to judge how well a campaign is going at this point is the money poll. Who’s raising the fat cash....but all THAT shows is fundraising skills.
After the summer, when the campaigns start pumping cash into ads that interrupt American Idol or whatever else the People are preoccupied with, THEN the Rassmussens and Zogby’s will be more relevant.
Right now, it’s all fluff and tease (they fluff, you get teased)......and I can’t wait until the Fall when things get heated.
I just hope he declares his candidacy soon. With the earliest primary schedule ever--the nominations will be likely decided by next February (only 9 months or so from now!!). Fred needs to declare soon!!
Every day he waits--only serves to help JulieAnnie--as it delays the EXTRA FOCUS that is so badly needed on Rudy's liberal record.
Run, Fred, Run!!!
Gooooo Hunter! Hey, Hunter's my man.
Are straw polls more relevant when the other non-Fred candidates win them in SC? Or TX? Or NH?
Fluff and tease...guess some people like it.
I think Fred is the only man who can unite the Republican Party an lead it to victory in ‘08.
(Thanks for the link)
If you want to SPLIT and DIVIDE the Republican Party WIDE OPEN--
JULIEANNIE IS THE RIGHT MAN,,,,AT THE RIGHT TIME!!
Butbutbutbut I was told that the California GOP was solidly behind Rooty....?
/mockery
BTTT
Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeees
Was there something specific in your blog you wanted me to read, or are you just pointing to the Fred part of your tagline ? ;-)
NBA, that’s badminton, right ?
=running away=
“Fred is also going to be speaking to the Virginia Republican’s at the annual dinner on June 2!!!”
Where bouts?
But...but..... Nobody has ever heard of him. And he’s just an actor. And his momentum is gone. And he has no chance of catching up in fund raising. And......

/chuckles. The FRED part. LOL
But...but...I thought only Rudy can win the blue states....
So, since FDT is not yet running, Duncan Hunter won the California Straw Poll! Good showing! Hunter/Thompson!
Fred we're behind you whenever you decide. The check is ready...just waiting for an address where to send...
Sign the Fred Thompson for President Petiton
