I’m sure polls have been taken.

If a Democrat was ahead, we would’ve heard about them.

But we have have heard nothing.

Hmmmmm....

Colonel Russell is a fine man, I’ve had the good fortune of meeting him and talking with him a couple of times.

Any idea how many installments to the interview there will be and when they’ll be available?
