To: deport
The polls in Ga did not support a Perdue win for governor, nor did most of them suggest Saxby's win, at least no where near as strong a showing as it was. Lesson, polls in Georgia are ify at best. This state is leaning farther and farther to the right and Johnny, in my experience, is a nice guy to talk to but many actives in the party are quietly saying he is not conservative.
My personal view, for what it is worth, is that Johnny will not get the 51% needed and that Cain, armed with this initial upset, will beat Johnny handily.
For as many establishment supporters as Johnny has, he has also pissed off a lot of people who think he is much too impressed with himself.

Yes it is relative to the entire spectrum but in the GOP primary it is much less Conservative.The GOP primary growth is coming in Metro Atlanta.More than 60% of the vote will be cast by people living within 50 miles of downtown Atlanta.These people will be heavily influenced by Isakson"s Television Commercials.Collins has not run TV yet and Cain just started.Only ad I have seen for Cain was on a Sunday morning talk show.Not his best target market.
To a large % of the voters Cain is just a name they have heard mentioned.in early June he and Collins together had less than 35% of the vote.He needs a turnout about 1/2 of that in the 2002 primary to have a chance.

Was it in GA that Bush had a snub after his "willing (illegal) workers for willing (illegal) employers" this winter? I seem to remember that a fundraising stop has some embarrassments and unsold tickets--to protest this position .
