Is it possible to add an additional "filter" for FR members who have been "active" for 4 or more years.. I believe the results would be more accurate.. my hunch is that a LOT of the votes are being cast by new members.. I also find it interesting to note how much "better" Giuliani / Newt are doing among NON-MEMBERS...

Give what up? I don’t think I am the only one curious about how cadidates are “polling” this early in the game... Is that not a fair question?

Look at McCain’s numbers.

That’s a good thing.

Why not just request a Hunter Vs. Thompson only poll?

I wonder, how many posters didn’t vote in the poll?

I doubt that I am the only “number cruncher” out there.. especially when the only arguments I hear against Duncan Hunter is that he can’t win because no one knows who he is.. to which I say it is too early to make THAT argument.. but it is NOT too early to discuss which way folks are leaning this early in the game... IMHO..

Polls at this this point in time are useless. It is far too soon for any poll to have any accuracy.

“..the only arguments I hear against Duncan Hunter is that he can’t win because no one knows who he is..”

We can get his name out to thousands or millions, if we call a talk show (depending on the show).

I’m getting my thoughts together, and am going to call a show.

Hunter is unknown. Once people listen to him, I think his numbers will go way up. He has plenty of time. Don’t waste your support on a “can win vote” before voters have even had a chance to take a look at the candidates. No one can win without their core party support. What you see now are the votes of strategists. They are not always right.

Oh the horror!

I think the filter should be for those who have been here over eight years.

David, you have way too much time on hour hands.

Gee, the only Duncan I have ever heard about here in Texas is the one that made yo-yo’s.

A point that I have made several times myself... Unfortunantly the only folks I can reach out and touch in Baghdad are other soldiers, most of whom tell me that they WILL vote for Duncan Hunter, but only after I asked them to take a look at him.. some of the "older folks" still tell me "He can't win because no one knows who he is" to which I reply well the primary is a year away and YOU know who is, and YOUR in Baghdad just like me.. Don't you think the folks at "home" are more informed than you are? LOL

FReegards,

David

David, you make, or at least imply, an excellent point about the "early adopters" of FR. I'd like to see that also (although my dividing line would be pre/post-9/11). Even if a lot of the pre-9/11 people are gone, I think there is a huge difference in the average attitude and tolerance for "RINOism" among the oldsters.

I also think the results might be even more conservative and against Guiliani or whomever than you do. But there's only one way to find out! Excellent idea.

No one outside FR has ever heard the name Duncan Hunter. If he is running, first thing he needs to do is get a new press agent.
