Things ain't going good for Rooty lately. In fact 'his people' are now resorting to outright lies about poll results..

PA Leadership Conference Straw Poll Winner Fred Thompson:
The writer behind the blog "PA for Hizzoner, Rudy Giuliani" put the best possible spin on the results of this weekend's presidential straw poll at the Pennsylvania Leadership Conference, a key barometer of GOP activist sentiment in the state. The headline was "Rudy Leads All Presidential Candidates," but the blogger had to confess the headline "may be a little deceptive," since theformer mayor actually got 16% and tied for second with Newt Gingrich, who spoke at the conference. The winner was non-declared candidate Fred Thompson, who "slaughtered the field" with 35% of the total vote.
Mr. Thompson was a non-candidate on a roll this weekend. He also came out on top in a straw poll on the other side of the country conducted at the California Republican Assembly, the state's oldest and largest Republican volunteer organization. He won 25% of delegate votes, topping local favorite Rep. Duncan Hunter of San Diego. For his part, Mr. Giuliani won 7% of the vote, although admittedly he was not expected to do well among the very conservative CRA membership.

An aside, is your Rudy 'Ping List' now down to three? It was a bloody weekend wasn't it (snicker), even yesterday more bit the dust.

Hmmm, maybe you should make it a 'Rudy Pong List'.

Straw polls are being investigated this year. There have been some very bad signs or corruption in them. The South Carolina ones especially. I would not put any stock in straw polls. I’m going to post some info on what is going on in SC with the straw polls. Very bad corruption.

Some very good people have left or been shown the door. That's not something I think is a cause for celebration. IMO.

And you think that was a good thing? Getting rid of long time Freepers just because they happen to like another candidate than the one that was assigned to FR? I'm glad you find that amusing.

When you have something intelligent to say rather than snickering like a five year old who just pulled a girl’s hair, let me know.

Interesting that the informed people are much higher on Thompson than the uninformed
