“Democratic Senator Arlen Specter “

I recall Jorge Bush telling all of us what a great conservative Arlen was when we were trying to run a real conservative against him.

“The far-left Daily Kos commissioned a Research 2000 poll...”

Everything after that is a lie.

Frankly no one should believe this poll any more than if FreeRepublic commissioned one that showed Toomey up 30 pts. When partisan groups comission polls, they might get the result that they want to hear but it is not always the truth.

Arlen will use this poll to justify even more arrogance, on his part.

Glad he moved out of Kansas, long ago!

This guy should be running for Chief Undertaker or, at least, Coroner. Never liked him and like him even less in his new incarnation.

Research 2000 is a joke outfit. Their polling numbers are always way off; because they over sample the “wishful thinking” demo. Their state by state polling during the 2004 & 2008 elections wasn't even close. They make CBS polling look respectable.

And when Cornyn supported Spector, I sent Cornyn a piece of my outraged mind...a few days or a week later, Spector jumps ship. Not even a sputter from Cornyn. Meanwhile, Cornyn sits on the Ethics[sic] Committee and gives Brothers Dodd and Conrad passes. What a bunch of whores.

Research 2000 is COMPLETELY discredited, and is only good for Push-polling for Democrats.

They maintain that Obama’s Approval has been holding at 60% for weeks, but they get there by saying his approval in the Northeast US is 85%(!!!!!)

Here’s the “Actual” (ie. made up) KOS numbers today:

NORTHEAST 85 10 5
SOUTH 32 64 4
MIDWEST 67 29 4
WEST 65 32 3

Is the Republican National Committee still supporting Arlen Specter?

Actually, Research 2000 is a very good private polling company with very accurate results in 2008 election polling. I would not blow them off just because they took Daily Kos money. One would need to see the questions asked and internals of the poll before making a final judgement.

That's why this poll is bogus.

Forget the poll results—when was the last time you saw a newspaper headline an article like this? Awesome!
