Comment on Careful with those poll numbers … Rasmussen on O’Malley and Ehrlich by Thomas the Tank Engine

Tom, PPP’s poll showed a 3 point lead for O’Malley with a robocall which is the same as Gonzalez’s poll out today. The issue is not so much if a call is live or automated, it it the sample they take from. 500 versus 1,000 is irrelevant in statistical purposes. But if you assume 30% African-American turnout over 25% over 20% that may greatly impact your results (22%=2006, 25%=2008). Or if you assume a great Dem then Rep or great women than male, etc. And that part of polling is a guessing game.

Comment on Updated (yet still belated) Friday Blogger Roundup: Every good political campaign is built on insinuation … by Kim

Please do not consider the election of 2010 just to be about repealing health care. Wargotz has the inside scoop on health care from the “delivery” standpoint, but he is weak on everything else. Furthermore, huffington post shows him donating countlesds $$ to Democrats from all over. His actions scream RINO. He is not the complete pkg, with all due respect. He will not do any more candidate debates and he has performed poorly on the ones he did attempt. Jim Rutledge seems to be the only candidate who is not invested in the culture of corruption and is a true Conservative. The US Constitution is his guiding principle and he has authenticity, integrity and courage of conviction. He will be able to withstand the mob like environment in the Senate unlike Wargotz who demonstrated himself to be weak enough to be a yes man. Donating $ to Kathleen Kennedy Townsend (D)- his heart is a liberal. He seems to be an opportunist.

Dr. Wargotz donated $200 to STENY HOYER and $22,000 to a Democrat in PG County. As a conservative, he will NEVER get my vote. I advise you to do the same.. Wake up, if we get more RINO republicans like Wargotz, then America is lost..

Tom,

In my best Bill Lumberg voice:

“Ooooh yeah I’m going to go ahead and um disagree with you there” on characterizing my characterization of SAC as a “fraud.”

We can have a nice argument over SAC, but fraud conjures up an connotation of the committee that I don’t think I quite made.

cheers
