Q-Poll: Guess Who's Winning
A nice, big Q-Poll has Spitzer still way up, though Suozzi has ticked up a little.
New York State Democrats give State Attorney General Eliot Spitzer a 69 -14 percent lead over Nassau County Executive Thomas Suozzi .... This compares to a 72 - 8 percent Spitzer lead over Suozzi in a January 19 poll.
Also, John Faso seems to have ticked up in a real way against Bill Weld (22%-16%-8% for Daniels) with almost all of his gains coming among women. (And the GOP sample size is big enough for this to be meaningful. Don't know how to explain that.)
Please post another photo of Tom Suozzi meeting with people he dreams might possibly vote for him. Don't bother with a caption -- we'll take care of that.
Go to Room8 blog to see where Suozzi is today.
So Suozzi picked up 5 points in 2 months . At this rate will he win ? I don't think so.
WRONG. He picked up 6 points. AND he WILL win.
Well, Sozzi's support did rise by 75%; that's a veritable surge. I mean, the man now polls in the double digits.
6 points after announcing he's actually running and an ad blitz. Not encouraging.
Kim Devlin will have a hard time spinning this with a straight face.
Actually, it's 9% in 2 months, with Spitzer's number dropping 3 and Tom's rising 6. Not huge, but no one is paying attention in March. If these numbers hold through May, then Tom's probably dead. However, anything over 35% by June 1 could spell MAJOR problems for Mr. AG-who's-never-been-inside-a-courtroom.
6 percentage points in 2 months... at this rate, he'll crack 50% by this time next year.
Spitzer 9 years of labor and racketeering prosecutions in the Manhattan DA's office and argued in court on several occasions.
ANAGRAM FUN!
Eliot Spitzer = Prize Toilets
Kim Devlin = Mink Devil
Tom Suozzi = very unhelpful letters
Tom will be the next Governor of the state of New York . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . if before the primary Eliot is hit by a bus and Chuck suffers an aneurysm from his intense glee upon hearing the news.
"Mr. AG who has never been inside a courtroom?" He was an assistant district attorney in Morgenthau's office out of law school. I bet he tried quite a few cases inside courtrooms.
You can't be 38484 serious?!?
