Clinton campaign did polling on Streisand endorsement.

[geek tragedy]

Is there anything they don't poll?

Still, the singer’s value to Mrs. Clinton shouldn’t be scoffed at, another Streisand associate said on Wednesday.

“We would’ve low-keyed it,” the associate said. “But the campaign says it’s a net plus. They polled it. Among Democratic primary voters, even in places like Iowa, they love Barbra. By the way, she just sold out concert tours around the world. And she’s great for fund-raising. In fact, a fund-raising letter signed by her went out this morning.

1. To the Hague with her

Off with her head!

2. GK, do you think the Obama campaign didn't poll about Oprah before sending her out as a surrogate?

[geek tragedy]

4. 9 million daily viewers is the only poll they needed. n/t

[rinsd]

6. C'mon now.

There is now way she is going out there without the Obama campaign unless they known which demographic & regions she will have the most impact and therefore target.

[geek tragedy]

7. Is that any secret?

She has the most famous demographics of anyone.

[blm]

20. Do you think they would HAVE to? The woman tops so many lists it would be a waste

of time and energy polling - especially since it was known that Oprah carried weight positively FOR Obama before Obama even entered the race.

3. Is there Anyone Who Does Not Poll Everything, Sir?

You might as well wonder if there is an army anywhere that does not employ bullets and explosives....

5. I doubt Edwards poll-tested Jackson Browne and the sexy

plumber from Desperate Housewives.

[maddiejoan]

11. why do you doubt that?

I don't.

Of course they poll this stuff.

Good for them! That's what you do on a campaign.

[benny05]

12. Not necessarily

Clinton has too much $$ to burn. The new pollster-in-chief. Edwards would not poll about that stuff. He's too busy creating plans, not copying others either.

[maddiejoan]

13. I'm sure he also spends a lot

of $$ on white-out for his Senate voting record.

[benny05]

18. You may very well think that

but you don't know him. I do. He's not like that.

8. Whoop de dooo what a bunch of bush type shit

but then we can expect this type of thing from you know who supporters. Hate Hillary bash her about any little tiny tiny thing.

10. Polling is wrong. Sponsoring a homphobic gospel tour is wonderful

:crazy:

[emilyg]

15. go figure.

9. Streisand has sold 100 million albums worldwide.

Very successful and very popular, not just with the reich wing (Armageddon kooks).

[TeamJordan23]

14. I wonder if she has a poll about what to wear each day. nm

[cuke]

19. The horror!

[beaconess]

16. Horrors! A candidate is polling during a presidential campaign!!!

What is this world coming to? Next thing you know, the OTHER candidates will start polling, too!

Lawdy Lawdy! What's we gonna do?!

[ClarkUSA]

17. I thought this was an Onion headline at first

Mark Penn must've polled whether people like pantsuits, too.
