Gasp! Pollster says Tancredo wins it by 2
Denver Post ^

Posted on 10/30/2010 10:20:59 PM PDT by Chet 99

Reading through the political blogosphere earlier today, I came across a post so shocking I had to check it out.

The post’s assertion?

“Tom Tancredo, John Suthers will win; GOP will retake Colorado House, Senate.”

I admit it – the Tancredo prediction sounds far-fetched, given the polls we’ve been seeing. But after researching the methodology behind the assertions, I felt like it was worth adding to the conversation, even if it proves to be an outlier.

The blogger, Donald E. L. Johnson, wasn’t referencing an actual poll, but an interview with David Flaherty, the president and chief executive of Magellen Data and Mapping Strategies in Louisville, Colorado.

I beleive Tom Tancredo will win. Some Democrats will vote Tancredo once in the privacy of the voting booth.

Thanks for the post.

If only the GOP was, also, ahead in the U.S. Senate races in: New York (both of them), Maryland, Vermont, and Delaware. There’s, still, way too much “political ignorance” and way too much “political stupidity” out there on the leftist side and on the moderate side, in too many political races, of all levels.

Why couldn't Giuliani have run against Schumer?

‘His family life is in the toilet’

Are you talking about the pre-2008 situation, or something new.

“Wow. This would be a tsunami if true.”

TEAnami!

Or...super wave, if true.

Obi Wan specifically mentioned a super wave.

“FREEPER prays up!”

Absolutely, my FRiend!

New York is a lost cause. There is no Republican Party any more at any level in the Empire State. The Rockefeller liberals have finally voted Democratic.

It would surprise me if Leahy or Schumer lost.

Anything else would get a response like “wow, I guess the wave WAS big”.

I think I heard somewhere that the generic ballot was 55-40 Republican. In 2008, it was -8 Republican. We’re 23 points ahead of 2008, according to that.

If we’re 23 points ahead of 2008, and we very well may be, we win pretty much everything.

So, I’ve factored that possibility in. It’s also possible that we end up with less than that 23 point swing.

Leahy and Schumer losing would really surprise me though, apart from the pleasing and predictable results of a huge wave election.
