Rasmussen: KB Hutchinson(R) still lead big over Radnofsky

[adam]

This is actually not half bad considering the following:

A) KBH is the most approved of Senator in the Country
B) Radnofsky is a nobody
C) Who happens to be a Texan Democrat.

Considering that, I would say she should be hovering around the 20s.

Whoever (Vlad) says that any Democrat in Texas other Chris Bell is going to pull in the low-20s is an idiot.

In 2000, Hutchinson ran against a "real" nobody, Gene Kelly, the perennial candidate who runs, but doesn't campaign.  He got still got 32% of the vote.

Radnofsky will probably get between 35%-40% of the vote, same as most other Democrats in Texas get in other state races.

Is calling me an idiot nessecary (don't answer that, I am not in the mood for smart ass bantering)? Just because I have a different opinion than you doesn't mean you have a right to be a complete prick about it.

All I am saying is that Radnofsky is not exactly an outstanding candidate and is running against on of the most highly approved of senators in the country. I think she is doing suprisingly well.

Your saying that Radnofsky is doing as well as a candidate who runs but doesn't campaign for himself indicates that she is doing well.  Confuses the hell out of me.

She is doing well in the sense that she is actually picking up ground, though little bits at a time. The fact that she is doing this, against KBH is impressive I think. I also believe that she is working quite valiantly considering that she isn't going to win most likely. She has made over 500 campaign stops and is calling KBH on all of her weaknesses (one of which being her debateophobia). In other words, I think win or lose, we can take a little pride in Barbara Ann.
