1. Fuzzy Math......maybe but

Clark + Lieberman + Gephardt + Kerry + Edwards = 44

Plus if you add half the Note Sure which is 9 = 53

2. and your point is…

:shrug:

3. All the other candidates throw their delegates to Lieberman

at the convention, robbing Dean of the nomination.

Just kidding. This is a great poll result.

4. The sad part is

Lieberman may actually think that's true.

5. Wow

That's great. :)

6. wow a 2-1 lead

nationally with Lieberman the candidate in second place!! maybe his sympathy grousing over Gore won him a few votes.

10. Naw, Lieberman's about-fifteen-percent is solid

It isn't going to go up or down until he drops out. Can you imagine any of the other candidates dropping out and throwing support to him?

7. dailyKos

Would have more credibility if he'd link to the poll results. There's no way to examine the methodology, the actual question asked or even to know the date the poll was taken.

I don't consider the dailyKos as a primary source for poll results.

8. I found the info & updated my original post

:)

[HFishbine]

12. Donkey

shine.

13. Now, why it matters

Being able to examine the original source is important. For example, we now know that this poll was taken on the first three nights following the capture of Saddam.

These tidbits are also interesting:
---------

"Among self-identified liberal Democrats, Dean attracts 35% of the vote. Clark, at 13%, is the only other candidate to register double digit support among liberal Democrats.

"Among moderate Democrats, Dean attracts 22% of the vote compared to 17% for Lieberman, 14% for Clark, and 12% for Gephardt."

9. kick

:kick:

[ErasureAcer]

11. last quarter sharpton and braun raised $120,000 each

their supporters 11% in this poll...sure don't like to give a lot.

I somehow doubt they have that much support.
