Stevens.
Oh nonsense. As if voters care about some senator from Alaska. And noway a poll reflects something so fast as yesterday’s news anyway.
A little bit of a non-sequitur perhaps, but if you think Ted Stevens is hurting McCain in the polls — this may encourage you...

Sarah Palin Statement on Stevens Conviction
From a State of Alaska press release
Governor Sarah Palin today released the following statement on the felony convictions of U.S. Senator Ted Stevens:
“This is a sad day for Alaska and for Senator Stevens and his family. The verdict shines a light on the corrupting influence of the big oil service company that was allowed to control too much of our state. That control was part of the culture of corruption I was elected to fight. And that fight must always move forward regardless of party or seniority or even past service.”
“As Governor of the State of Alaska, I will carefully monitor this situation and take any appropriate action as needed. In the meantime, I ask the people of Alaska to join me in respecting the workings of our judicial system. I’m confident Senator Stevens will do what is right for the people of Alaska.”
