Great news out of New York; the GOP is poised to take Weiner’s House seat on Tuesday. It looks like we will win both congressional special elections on Tuesday (the one in Nevada is pretty much a sure thing given the huge GOP turnout among early voters).
Fantastic! Just fantastic!
What’s the race in Nevada about?
i aint driving down thare to ‘elp out. staying home.
That would be a nice stick in the eye.

Democrat pollster PPP just released poll of likely NY-09 voters showing Bob Turner leading Weprin by 47%-41% (with 4% for the Socialist Workers Party candidate and 8% undecided) despite a Dem turnout that approximates that of 2008 (Obama got 55% in the CD in 2008 and 55% of the sample reported having voted for Obama). And the internals are even worse for the Democrats: Turner gets 72% of the vote among those for whom Israel is very important, Turner carries the Jewish vote handily (even as a Catholic running against an Orthodox Jew), and Obama’s approval rating in the district is an abyssmal 31%. We need to keep working hard to help Turner across the finish line, but it looks increasingly as if we’re going to win this race tomorrow.
