You'll have to do better than that to make me mad and if you think my SAGE advice to a stalked poster is playing a little game, then I can only LOL "at" you.
The lack of polls therefore may be due to a media blackout about the race. Rasmussen would have polled there but he only does statewide races, not districts (The only House race poll I've seen from him was Barbara Cubin in WY-AL).
Ellsworth, just for the fact that he was and still is extremely popular in the Vanderburgh/Warrick/Gibson County areas. I don't know how well known he is a little farther north of here, but in this immediate area, it's hands down.
Knock it off!
It is alright to call me a Stalker?????? Where are my rights???
Mom, I heard a while back that Ellsworth was under fire for not protecting a 14 year witness in a murder trial who was Assasinated.
Any truth to that story?
Also will Nancy Pelosi and a Ellsworth possible vote for her as Speaker be a liabilty for him?
I really have not heard anything about the assasination thing, to be honest. With Pelosi, they have been really playing that ad a lot. There have been numerous ads on TV with Ellsworth going on and on about how he is his own man and he is not going to let Pelosi tell him how to vote and all that. They have been really trying to play that particular issue down. I'd have to say that Hostettler is in deep trouble here, but then, he managed to pull the last election out, it was close, but he did manage to win. He has a real conservative base and if he can get them fired up and out there drumming up votes, he might be ok. Hostettler has been right on a lot of things that look bad at the time, like the Katrina money, he voted against the initial aide package, which they really nailed him on here, the democrats were on TV constantly during that mess, but John came out being correct on how it was all handled wrong and the money was wasted. Of course, you never here them coming back and saying he was right.
