If it's a given that polls favor repukes, how bad does it have to be for a repuke candidate to tell
supporters to "ignore the polls"?

That's exactly what Meg Whitman and Carly Fiorina are doing in California.

Sorry, ladies, but it looks like you're both toast....

1. I hope Angle is toast too, but it doesn't look like it.
Here's a graphic representation of Nevada voters:

2. Ask the garden gnome in the work refrigerator. Only he will know.

5. But he ain't talking.
He's surprisingly quiet.

3. Loony right wing candidates are leading in races across the country
But even after pissing away bazillions of dollars of her own money, Whitman is falling farther and farther behind. If she really was the skilled CEO she claimed to be she would have given up on the ridiculous notion that she could get elected to anything.

We have received a stack of fliers in the mail from her almost two inches thick.

BTW the whole pile of fliers from all candidates is about six inches high. We get at least ten a day. Never read a friggin one of them.

4. Well, to know Meg is to loathe her.
The more exposure she gets, the lower she sinks in the polls.

It's called total market saturation. Even Amway realized this at some point and changed their name.
