Political bits

The Republicans have been complaining that the polling is undersampling Republicans. Maybe that's because only 31.5% consider themselves Republicans, down from 37.2% two years ago.

House Republicans abandon three more House races. (Weldon, Bob Ney's seat, and Beauprez's seat.)

Corker puts in another $2 million of his own money, and launches two new hit ads on Ford.

The Republicans are throwing $1 million against Stabenow +14? That looks an even longer shot than the Dems throwing money against Kyl. (Pederson doing better than expected in early voting?)

This is great, RCP tallied and tabled the spending on House Races yesterday.

New DCCC ad focusing on Iraq.

And, Ann Coulter has refused to cooperate with the investigation of her voting in the wrong precinct, so it's being turned over to prosecutors. (I would guess her refusal indicates guilt, no?)

****I'll update this post throughout the afternoon.

  • Bouchard is too linked to Bush to win Michigan. We hate that damn Texan bastard up here and laugh at you when you try to drive in snow we don't even bother plowing.

  • Mike, I still have trouble in a non-compulsory voting system figuring the split.
    To me 14 - 16% is significant, in a national poll. And it does seem to reflect broadly across the country, give and take. Is there a way to reconcile it with probablr voter turnout?
    I know when I did my own campign polling here in Canada 2004 the figures were nearly spot on with the result - unfortunately :)
