Katherine Harris has a good shot, but other Republicans would have a better shot.

[frankjr]

I'm not much for polls of any kind. I think Harris could win.
I resent the GOP leadership trying to squeeze her out.

[Brilliant]

Unfortunately, Jeb is the only one who can beat Nelson. Harris has no chance. On the other hand, Jeb's not running, so what does it matter if Harris is the GOP nominee?

[yoe]

DO THEY EVER POLL CONSERVATIVES?

Only the left are polled and only the left goes by polls a-la Clinton, he governed by polls and it is all Propaganda!

President Bush continues to do the heavy lifting and doing it very well indeed regardless of what the detractors want you to think. Polls are PURE PROPAGANDA!

[neutrality]

Even this republican polling firm is part of the huge conspiracy

"10. Would you like to see Secretary"

Depends. Is she good looking?

By the way, Nelson will vote for Judge Roberts. The Dims will forgive him and he needs every other vote he can muster.

[ken5050]

Has Nelson announced his position on the Roberts nomination?

"10. Would you like to see Secretary"
Depends. Is she good looking?

Didn't she win the Triple Crown?

36. Do you have a favorable or unfavorable opinion of Katherine Harris? 
Favorable 36% 
Unfavorable 39% 
Undecided 25% 

37. Do you have a favorable or unfavorable opinion of Bill Nelson? 
Favorable 41% 
Unfavorable 12% 
Undecided 47% 

Those favorability numbers are disastrous.

"Didn't she win the Triple Crown?"

Oh, that Secretari-at!

Yeah buddy. He was something worth seeing! ;)

[Soul Seeker]

I wouldn't charge conspiracy.

I would state this polling unit did not do well in 2004.

It is, therefore, off the list of polls I give a mind to.

As I have been saying right along: wooden head nelson is a gonner. Harris will clean his coo coo clock.
If W.H. can't do better than this in a poll of 1200 "registered voters" who are obivously old media consumers by their other answers, she will make splinters out of him. When real voters, the new media people, get focused on this race it will be over and the rat party in the Sunshine State will be on its way to Whigdom.

Numbers like this show us a few things. They say that in this era of the new media, asking "registered voters" anything has been proved to be useless. The ONLY way to explain Harris's high unfavorable number we are being led to believe, by the ratmedia, is the 2000 election. Let's look at how ridiculous this is. If that election was held last year we would have no data to either prove or disprove this "theory" that voters are "angry" and spoiling for revenge. But we have had several intervening occurrences since 2000. First, in 2002, just 2 years after that election, Jeb Bush, a guy with the same last name as the so-called "selected president", blew out his rat opponent, a man with unlimited money ( his campaign finance chair was lil terrie mcbullshit's father in law) lil terrie swore a blood oath to "get little brother". Blacks in Fla who were told everyday for ten months that THEY WERE ROBBED, turned out at just 1% higher than Whites. Also Harris herself was elected with 55%. Next all but a handful of Florida's counties are totally controlled by the GOP.
Next, 800 new people come to Florida every day. The reason that number is high (unfavorable) for Harris is an absolute reflection of old media consumers being polled. These people don't vote. Imagine the debates between wooden head nelson and Harris! If W.H. votes wrong on either Roberts or the next one, Harris can phone it it.
