Per Rasmussen: 35% of CT Dems still support Lieberman

[WI_DEM]

Rasmussen officially released the new poll showing a "lively" race for the CT Senate. Lieberman up by five 46-41 over Lamont.

The biggest problem for Lamont is that the poll shows that 35% or slightly more than one-third of the states Democrats still support Lieberman. To win Ned needs to widdle that number down substantially given Lieberman's independent and republican support.

With nearly three months I think that Ned can do it!

1. It Won't Hold--They Will See the Error of Their Ways

Some people have higher denial quotas and inertia, but it's an avalanche, and they will move into the light.

2. Rasmussen

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:


Say no more!!!!!!!!

4. I will say more

He has Democrats ahead for the Senate in PA, OH, MO, Montana and RI and shows competitive races in Nevada and Tennessee. His polling this election season I think has been fair and even Daily Kos seems to trust it and it backs up most other polls for Senate and Governor races. So, the standard pat "It's Rasmussen" doesn't jell.

7. We'll see

I generally prefer that graph where they place all the pollsters in the mix, and the trend line, minus bias, becomes apparent.

Rasmussen has always gone out of their way to forecast the best GOP case whenever they can pull it out of their asses. I'm loathe to give them "credit" for not gaming the numbers 'this time,' but that's just me, I guess.

But then, perhaps they have a stinky finger in the wind, and they're adjusting their practices to be assured of continued work, in the event that power shifts at long last, and it's Democrats spending money on niche and specified polling?

9. i will never trust Rasmussen" i was polled by them in fla 3 times

before the 2004 election and they were the most skewed and tipped poll questions i have ever experienced..and i was polled all during the 2004 campaign time by Pew several times..and several others..

Rasmussen asked very slanted questions!!..thats when i realized they were nothing but bullshit for little lord pissy pants..

Pew was the most balanced questions!

11. Agreed. Rasmussen is a pollster for hire with definate biases

3. If fucking Leiberman fucks this thing up for us.

Mother fucker better not.

5. Lieberman IS the Republican strategy...

He is the perfect tool for their "cut and run" strategy.

6. I'm afraid they're going to install rigged machines by November.

My fear is that Rove will help them rig it for Lieberman -- they can't let their buddy go.

8. Horrible news for Lieberman, I'd say. Didn't he have 48% one week ago?

I mean, 48% of the Democrats. That's one quarter of his Democratic support gone in a week, isn't it?

[calico1]

10. 35% isn't all that hot for an 18 year incumbent.

Plus most of the Indies in CT are against the war. I think Lamont has time to make this up and gain Indy support.

[flyarm]

13. he already did get alot of indy support ..how many registered

dem for this past weeks election?? very telling!!
