Rush: Minnesota is now a dead heat again

Rush Limbaugh | Nov 1, 2002

[John Jorsett]

Rush has just reported on his show that internal Republican polling now shows Minnesota to be a statistical dead heat once again, Mondale having dropped 7 points. He cites the Democrat funerally (my borrowed term from another talk show) for Wellstone as one reason, particular among independent voters who were turned off by the tone of the event and Ventura's walking out.

A 7 POINT DROP on MONDALE, thats a FREE FALL. Republican Tanks are moving forward on all Fronts, Take no Prisoners!

[hobbes1]

Yes, you are correct. I confuse the two all the time.

Wednesday morning Coleman's campaign had 25 and 50 dollar donations coming in so fast they couldn't keep up with it.

Good thing I donated via the website then!

Bill-"What was the last thing to go through Pauls mind?"

Mundane/Carter-"What?"

Bill-"The PROPELLER!"

Bill,Mundane/Carter,SheDevil-"BWAHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHAH...!!!"

Pray for GW and the Elections

[Aeronaut]

a bit of schadenfreude would be if mondale and lautenberg won but the libs become the minority (tee-hee)

NOOOOOOO!!!

[wordweaver]

I agree. In most cases, I am embarrassed to admit that my State elected this Doofus. In this case, however, the Doofus did good. (I believe in the sanctity of the Governor's office - and was offended when former-Governor Perpich was referred to as "Governor Goofy". I have, however, never accepted Jesse as my Governor.)

Not Butts.

Mondale said "Asses", he said "Asses"!

Just reporting the facts.......

[BlackRazor]

Further internals as per Rush

None of those numbers are encourgaging in the least, when one considers the 3-5 points (minimum) of fluff that usually exists in this type of internal polling.

LOL you have Zogby down to a 'T'.......LOL

Nita Lowey?

"Today Cheney is there; Saturday is First Lady Laura Bush; Sunday is President George W. Bush; and batting clean-up is Rudy on Monday!"

Sweeeeeet!!!

[hobbes1]

LOL, yes, as I sauid b4 I confuse the two spur of the moment..

I know what you mean. I'm glad he did the right thing. And the clip of the interview with him on Wednesday (which FNC kept showing over and over) was really something. When Jesse talked about the crowd booing Trent Lott, his disgust was almost palpable.

Agreeing with him is a first for me.

Bill to Fritz: Your daughter is SPICY.

Lips that have touched Bill Clinton's [pick any body part] will never touch mine, SPICY or not.

[Dusty Rose]

It is ghoulish how the pro-abort, pro-euthenasia party seems to benefit from dead candidates.

Wow, that comment deserves repeating. I shivered when I read that.

[Gunder]

Partisan internal polls are only released if they reflect favorably on their respective candidate. That's why we heard much about, but never saw, those Democratic polls in New Jersey showing him trailing by double digits. Still, I concur -- you have to take these things with a big grain of salt. Tho I'm not sure the so-called "independent" polls (i.e., the ones put out by newspapers and television stations) are all that independent.

[Gunder]

Sorry, by "him" I mean Toricelli. But you probably already knew that. :)

The Party of the Dead!!!!!!!!

[The Raven]

There was a post the day after the rally/funeral that said the poll with the 7 pt lead for Mondale was skewed Democratic.

[montag813]

That runoff could decide balance of power and Racicot has said if that is the case the GOP will pour between $30-$40 million in there in a month.

If Racicot himself had run instead of wasting his time at the RNC, we would be looking at a Chafee-free majority in the bag. Perhaps he has a "hairdresser" past also?
