Interesting. I think there is a signiicant overlap between conservative bloggers and Tea Party and/or libertarian types; if so, this could be a better “tell” on Palin’s popularity than the major polls done on Manhattan/Jersey/Queens. (Don’t tell me they poll flyover country; I don’t know ANYONE who lives around me who has talked to one of the major telephone pollsters.)
Maybe its just that the blogs are talking about the candidates people are really interested in instead of the RINO’s the tradional media and GOP leadership want to jam down our throats.
Anybody that forced themselves to sit through TPaw on Hannity last night would have suddenly found themselves longing to vote for Palin, Paul or Trump.
Traditional media: Gingrich 14.7, Palin: doesn't say, Romney: doesn't say, Barbour/Pawlenty: 9.7.
Blogs: Palin 30.2, Trump 9.9, Gingrich 7.6, Paul 8.6, and Bachmann 6.7
That is about the most worthless reporting I have seen so far.
He wraps this garbage up with his real point, So the question is (again): Is the news you want also the news you need?
We "need" the lame stream media version? They decide what I want?
No.
The real questions are who will get up and go vote?
Newspaper reader or person on a computer?
Second question is how many e-version newspaper/magazine readers are there vs. how many are on "blogs" exchanging info?
.
Not one of them will beat Obama.
