"No, they should not listen to media polls, they should listen to the voter that elected them."
I agree, and SOME of them do not listen to polls.
However, SOME of them do - like the waverers. If telling them about the Rasmussen poll gets them to do the right things, why not?
Those "moderates" need strong candidates facing them in the primaries and the RNC's backing of those challengers.
Any of them that vote against this should be made an example of GOP wrath. Fat chance of that.
