Rudy winning in SC is big news!
At least you say IN SC instead of "winning SC". It was one county. A county that is not overwhelmingly comprised of (despite your claim) "diehard conservatives" at the structural level, which is what this is about. I don't need to spin this. It was good for Hunter to get that close to the favorite.
I am most certainly not saying that this proves Hunter will get the nomination. Not by a long shot. But it doesn't prove Giuliani's the guy either. There's a lot more of these straw polls to go.
Isn't enough to say that this is good news (yet not to much to go on) for both teams?
A straw poll in one county is major news!
And only winning by 18 votes to a virtual unknown is really bad news for the wealthiest RINO in the race.
Rudy winning as the frontrunner is news but Hunter coming in second is bigger.
He beat 4 other guys who should have been ahead of him.
