After reading the
Minnesota Poll on Kennedy v. Klobuchar, I have to wonder if they've hired Baghdad Bob as the pollster conducting the MP. They're that outrageous. Here's some of the outrageous lies that they're peddling:
Kennedy does only a little better among men, 35 percent compared with Klobuchar's 53 percent.
People, that's the type of stuff I'd expect to find in Pravda. When Bill Clinton won re-election in 1996, Bob Dole got more votes amongst men than did Bill Clinton. Now I'm supposed to believe that Ms. Klobuchar is maintaining an 18 point gender gap amongst men? That isn't just a lie. It's stuff that would make Baghdad Bob blush.
She has 92 percent of DFLers, 85 percent of liberals, plus 27 percent of conservatives.
Right. I'm supposed to believe that the people who've identified themselves as conservatives are actually conservatives? I don't think so. I'm supposed to believe that 27% of Minnesota conservatives are supporting a tax-hiking, soft-on-crime liberal who wants us to set a timeframe to abandon Iraq? That's pure Barbra Streisand. Minnesota conservatives wouldn't vote for her if they were paid a 7-figure bribe.
Kennedy also has improved his standing among Republicans, 77 percent of whom support him, and conservatives, where he draws 62 percent.
Again, conservatives give Mark Kennedy higher marks than they give Gov. Pawlenty. Yet this Minnesota Poll says that Mark Kennedy draws support from only 62% of conservatives? This isn't just insulting, it's pure propaganda.
Here's the ultimate pile of horse manure:
Most notable to Duffy is that Kennedy has a favorable rating of 44 percent but voter support of only 32 percent. "He's losing...people who view him favorably," Duffy said. "That's hard to do, and it's rare. It tells me that people are looking for change. They like him, but they're looking for something else."
Ms. Duffy should know better than to think that. Did it ever dawn on Ms. Duffy that this makes no sense whatsoever? Saying that "he's losing...people who view him favorably" is like saying "I like him; that's why I won't vote for him." Only a liberal could believe that. Thinking people wouldn't make that analysis. That'd set off all kinds of red flags for most people. Ms. Duffy's statement is insulting to thinking people.
Then again, her statements are the same quality propaganda as the pollitorial.
