4. You are right....sorry

I just like stuff I can see in one or two pages, but what you posted is exactly okay

Attention spans aren't what they used to be before the microwave oven, when one waits for 45 seconds vs put it in an oven for 45 minutes.

6. No problem

[Aha]

3. Poll driven voters has no clue

what they are missing out on /actual/ issues.

5. I guess you don't like the poll results?

Polls shouldn't influence voters any more than the score of a football or basketball game should influence which team the people in the stands are pulling for.

Polls are score cards which measure how members of the voting public are to reacting to the candidates' stands on the issues. If a candidate is behind in a group of polls it is either because the majority of the voting public disagrees with that candidate on his/her stands on the issues or because he/she has not communicated those stances properly.

10. They also give candidates an opportunity to adjust and fine-tune their campaign...

... and many campaigns do that to their advantage. Other more "inflexible" campaigns choose to ignore the polling data at their own risk.

7. So tomorrow Michigan and Mississippi.

Both heavily Hillary. Do we have a projection for how they may split the delegates?

[CajunBlazer]

8. No, because states do the proportioning differently...

.. but I have noticed that the winner usually gets a higher percentage of the delegates than the percentage of the votes he/she managed to win.
