I have a hard time accepting the premise that I can't have the candidate I want because he's lagging in the polls. If we like someone we should start working our butts off to get their numbers up. We've proven over and over again we can win when we commit to a goal.
Oh, how I agree with you, Kenny! I only wish we could make it happen.
But......there are too many pockets that want to be stuffed, every where we turn!
Vote your convictions during the primaries; vote for the nominee in the general.
Herman gets great responses from the crowds at these debates. They like what they hear. If all who like him vote for him in the primaries, he stands a chance.
He's my only choice at this point. I can't, in good consciense, vote for any of the others. If he doesn't get the nomination, well - - I guess I'm stuck holding my nose to vote for whoever gets it. ANYbody but Obamarx.
As for polls, who knows how much they're dummied up? My guess is, more than people think.
