A tautology if ever there was one. :-}
Let x be the amount of "competetive" races, not that this looks at all competitive mind you.
Let y be the ones where the Dems are leading and z be the ones where the Pubbies are leading.
This guy only posts the y's which is y I want to know y?
Simmons did fine in the debate, he made it clear that he was the breadwinner for the southeast corner. That will get him votes. He's already got our votes despite his foolish notions on PBA being a "choice".
Prior to the debate Dem internals had the race a draw. I haven't seen either side totuting any internals post debate which kind of tells me the status remains quoa despite that later poll showing Simmons trailing by a bit.
It's actually the same pattern as Simmons first two campaigns. Behind or tied with Gejdenson and Courtney. Such is life in RINO central.
Maybe Lieberman will come and campaign for Simmons on a "stay the course" brotherhood thing. (evil grin)
y oh y. :) Simmons only mentioned the glorious pork aspect (maybe necessary pork and thus un-pork and low fat beef) in his summation. Obviously, that has more salience to the plebs in New London than it does to me, although I doubt the plebs were watching the debate (but no doubt they will get targeted mailers). The rest was about Iraq and health care, with Courtney apparently in the health care industry somehow, and thus had a lot of detailed trivia to offer. If Simmons previous opponents have been as articulate as this one, he is a mensch indeed, to slay them on hostile ground.
In my defense, I do post polling from competitive races where R's lead. Problem is that's kind of a rarity of a race this year.
A couple of days ago I posted one with Wilson up 5 in New Mexico. A couple about Senator Kyl in Arizona. A couple about Allen in VA. I've posted several showing Kean leading in NJ. Yesterday there were some M-D polls about the Nevada House districts that I posted. The point is, though, that in the competitive races, Democrats are leading by slight margins in a lot of them (this is true especially in the Senate) and the competitive races where we lead are smaller in number.
Maybe I will join my atheistic WASP breathen (eg my brothers) and become a Leftist. Each has about an equal likelihood. :) Ya, I know, some around here think I am already there. They must miss the well, subtleties. :)
