Okay, but what is Drudge's source? Chances are it is a liberal media source determined to paint Jeb as a "candidate in trouble"...plant that doubt in voters' minds, right? Like Mr. Subliminal...Negative advertising, truthful or not, can be very effective, as the Democrats know.

I'd bet it was another Howell Raines hit piece in tomorrow's NYT.

Could be a democrat, as you suggest, or perhaps a Billy Kristol/Jack Thompson/Bob Smithiac type(the kind who believe suicide is the path to political success.)

I gather it is Zogby-apparently the Zog shows that Jeb and McGroom are in a dead heat. Chris Matthews is about to bust a gut, hyping the fact that Jeb is in Big,Big,Big trouble.

I disagree. This smells like a setup. Nobody inside the WH or with any real knowledge is going to leak this if true. This is probably some diversion to keep money and resources in Florida and not elsewhere. Drudge has simply become a useful puppet to leak stuff to and make sure it gets out.

I always like to see these stories. It means the Dims are scared and it makes sure that Republicans don't shirk their patriotic duty.
