This is excellent to see. Gardner's lies aren't working, Udall is staying above water.
Excellent.
BTW, Pols, the site is running much better now. It's been basically down since this morning. Damn hackers…
Yep. Most of the day I either couldn't get on or got on and wished I hadn't because it was so glitchy. Seems to be working fine now.
Well, not exactly. "Recent Comments" are back for me but now when I click on "My Comments" I don't even get an empty "My Comments" page. I get sent to a blank page, not even an error message, and have to sign on again. If anyone directed a question or pointed comment to me and I'm not answering it's because I can't get "My Comments" and haven't done a search of all the more recent recent threads. I'm not ignoring you on purpose. If Piss Ant has responded to any of my recent comments, ESAD ought to take care of whatever he said.
Seconded, Jeffco. And those Rove and Koch dirty-money ads against Senator Udall are some of the stupidest, most inept attempts at false demonization I've ever seen. I've witnesed numerous apolitical non-partisans laugh out loud at them because they're so cheesy, childishly transparent and poorly proudced. As one put it, "that's so early 2000s."
Perhaps those are the only ads they can run with their money.
Cory Gardner has NOTHING on his record to appeal any but the ultra-right voter. His own advertising efforts have been dedicated to projecting a totally distorted picture of who he really is, and what he really stands for. Why? Because he knows he is not in sync with the majority of Coloradoans. His campaign is dedicated to tricking enough voters to fall for this made-up-persona.
Precisely.
By the way, something may stink in this poll.
IIUC, it shows Udall leading Con Man by only 2% among hispanics — what a pantload that is! Not possible, no matter what spinning distortions and shameless lies our Koch trolls will try to push shortly. CO hispanics — like Dems in general — are often notoriously underpolled in CO, and I suspect this is another example of that.
Still, the top line is looking good for Senator Udall!
dp, when you brak a poll into subsets, like hispanics, the small numbers sharply incresase margin of errors. no hanky panky here, just statistics.
Not so sure. CO polling has gained notoriety over the last few cycles for underpolling Dems in general and hispanics in particular. That's why so many polls indicated incorrectly that Buck would handily beat Seantor Bennet, and that Romney would best Obama.
those points are valid, dp, based on general results. But when you go off because the resilts in any subset are not to your liking, you ignore reality. If a poll has 600 people, it may have a margin of error of 5 percent. But if only 20 pct are hispanic, then that is just 120 people and margin of errpr there would be much higher. Same for seniors, etc in general subsets aren't reliable and often vary far more from poll to poll than the overall results of those same polls.
and I dont think any legigimate poll predicted buck over bennet in the closing days. polls are a still photo of a moving target, not propocies of things to come. I agree, btw than hispanics are sigificantly underreped in many polls. But that would affect results, not a given subset. in other words a poll underrepresenting latinos should still show 60/40 to Udall — if that were the case — while underestimating the contribuyion of that vote to Udall victory.
These overall results are reasonable and while the latino subset should be stronger, it is so small it is vulable to sample size errors. So go back to worrying about better things. fyi. I once spent a lot of your tax dollars on a govt grant at northwestern studying scientic polling techniques.
Of course, I defer to your polling wisdom and experience, Voyager.
But a lead of just 2 points for any statewide Dem candidate among hispanics will continue to sound very "Fox Newsy" to me, as in completely divorced from reality.
Pretty sure Voyageur knows his stuff, DP. Though the typing is a bit of a challenge.
My 30ish, very smart daughter thinks Gardner is CREEPY. I'm guessing she won't be voting for him. Seriously, with many of these young women all you need to say is "personhood". Udall may not be as slick tallking as Gardner, but he is sincere, cares about Colorado, and doesn't look like he's been polished up with snake oil like Gardner does. Guys like Gardner make you want to count the silver after he leaves.
Miss Jane, I'd say your daughter is a very intelligent person and an astute judge of (the lack of) character!
And you're spot-on about Con Man's slick, smarmy, used-car-salesman persona.
Nothing from Skippy and Zippy on this topic yet? Koch, Inc. must still be downloading their talking points.
I'm sure the Clown MoPed is on it's way.
