Uh ... HUH.

You're not engaging in debate. The most one can take from your snotty (yes?) post about Dewey and Truman is that no polls ever should matter. Which makes you even more of a hypocrite.

You haven't responded substantively to my point that a head-on poll that gets results among the CURRENTLY-RUNNING FIELD OF CANDIDATES is a heck of a lot less "hypothetical" than one that fantasizes, "Well, what if one of them weren't running? Then what?"

If you'd been paying attention, you'd have noted that I came into this thread with the rather pro-Tom observation that the poll at least disproves any notion that "Tom never could have won anyway," and suggests that in the future he's a solid option for the GOP in a race that includes a PRIMARY. But apparently anyone not precisely toeing the McClintock campaign line is to be engaged with juvenile, non-responsive debating tactics.
