Once again.....early polls are historically meaningless, even if they are true (PPP is an liberal polling group btw)
These polls are keen to pre-season college basketball polls - they don’t mean anything until you play the actual game (primaries, general)
1.Guliani had a whopping 40% among a crowded field in early polls in 2007
2. Paul Tsongas was the guy in 1991, Bush Sr had a 90% approval, Clinton was in the middle of the pack
3. Reagan got so much bad news, that he was going to lose his own primary in CA, He would lose to Ted Kennedy - People wanted Gerald Ford instead of Reagan in 1980 because they bought the MSM lie that he was another Goldwater disaster - 8 months before the general elections polls had him losing to Carter by 25 points
Excellent points. I remember ‘92 well, no one thought Clinton would get anywhere near the WH. Look at McCain in December and January 2008, would anyone have thought he would be the nominee?
PPP is Daily Kos's pollster.
