I know many here like Gallagher. I don't know either man, but I really don't like Gallagher's campaign. It is obnoxious and makes me wonder about his honesty.

Gallagher hasn't been running nearly as nasty of a campaign as the Democrats have been against each other.

Just a few things to point out in this article.
1. Connecticut-based public opinion research group. okay.. i'll leave that alone....
2.includes voters who identify themselves as ''born-again or evangelical Christians.'' - How many of the 317 folks surveyed???
3. surveyed likely primary voters in Florida Aug. 23-28, including 317 Republicans
57% of 317 is what???

Guess Dobson's endorsement has not exactly borne much fruit.

Guess Dobson's endorsement has not exactly borne much fruit.Either that or the survey managed to miss Dobson's vast audience, or was not able to find them at all (as is the case in with the broadcast ratings).
At 57% Crist, 32% Gallagher, one has to have really swallowed the Kool Aid to think Gallagher will win. Another three point slip would put Gallagher behind by a two-to-one margin.
Had Gallagher not run such a nasty campaign against Jeb Bush for governor (that people very well remember) he might not be in such a bad position. He got really trashy in the campaign....something his ardent followers choose to overlook. Way too much denial.

45% of the 317 surveyed described themselves as "evangelical" or "born again."
If you don't like the Qunnipiac poll because it is based out of Connecticut, then what do you think about the other two polls that came out this week? Strategic vision (a Republican polling firm) showed Crist up 16, and Mason-Dixon poll which came out today showing Crist up 22 points.

His advocates here have shown themselves to be fairly clueless all around.

More from Quinnipiac:
It will take a political storm a lot bigger than Ernesto to give Gallagher much chance to defeat Crist in the GOP primary, said Peter Brown, assistant director of the Quinnipiac University Polling Institute. It would be hard to think of a candidate who has blown that large a lead with so little time remaining until the actual voting.
Fifty-one percent have a favorable impression of Crist, compared to only 11 percent who view him unfavorably. By comparison, 32 percent view Gallagher favorably, with 17 percent unfavorable.
Only 18 percent of Crist voters, compared to 27 percent of Gallagher supporters, say they might change their mind before going to the polls Tuesday.

and me too. THEY DIDN'T CALL ME! And they didn't reach people who were on the internet who don't have DSL. Think about it. They are calling people who are NOT WIRED.
GO, GALLAGHER! This is the age of the internet and lots of people are not on line waiting for pollsters to call them.
That IS A FACTOR!
GO, GALLAGHER!

Yes, if you ignore the bad news, it will just go away.
Doesn't anyone find it odd that not one single poll has shown Gallagher ahead in the past few months?

They also didn't call me, so it all evens out.

I am opposed to judicial tyranny. Charlie Crist aided and abetted judicial tyranny and Terri's Fight is going to have a lot more pleas for help because the death lobby will be completely in charge.

How many undecided voters vote for the candidate that is ahead in the "polls" 5 days before the election. My experience tells me that undecided voters do look at the endorsements.. and in this case, I think that favots Gallagher... IMHO

Crist didn't do anything for the same reason that Gallagher didn't do anything: The law did not provide a remedy for the situation.
Are you suggesting that Crist should have exceeded his authority as Attorney General to save Mrs. Schiavo?
If you are, why is Gallagher off the hook for not doing the same thing?
To: Happy Valley Dude
Charlie Crist had a civil rights dept. He slammed the door in Terri's face.
Tom Gallagher spoke out on Terri's behalf before Crist's friend Judge Greer and Judge Whittemore carried out the order to torture her until death.

They didn't call me, and I voted (absentee ballot) for Crist.
