Title: Re: MO-R: PPP: Brunner 35% Akin 30% Steelman 25% Post by: RogueBeaver on August 06, 2012, 07:33:55 AM IMO: 1) Brunner 2) Steelman ... 3) Akin.
Title: Re: MO-R: PPP: Brunner 35% Akin 30% Steelman 25% Post by: ShadowRocket on August 06, 2012, 03:57:37 PM I'll probably be wrong, but I've getting the gut feeling that Akin pulls it out. We'll see tommorrow.

Title: Re: MO-R: PPP: Brunner 35% Akin 30% Steelman 25% Post by: RogueBeaver on August 06, 2012, 04:00:54 PM Why is Akin surging now, he was in the teens. Same reason Fischer did, the other 2 pummelled each other on the airwaves. Difference is that Akin is the weakest candidate in this field and Fischer wasn't. Title: Re: MO-R: PPP: Brunner 35% Akin 30% Steelman 25% Post by: tmthforu94 on August 06, 2012, 04:22:45 PM Akin is 65. Brunner isn't a spring chicken either. Originally I supported Steelman in this race, but seeing how they're all pretty conservative, I'll go with the most electable, which I believe is Brunner.
I also believe Brunner will narrowly edge out Akin on election day, as this poll indicates.

I also believe Brunner will narrowly edge out Akin on election day, as this poll indicates. Also indicates that Akin has late momentum. We'll see how this turns out but like WI next week it'll be a long night.

Same reason Fischer did, the other 2 pummelled each other on the airwaves. Difference is that Akin is the weakest candidate in this field and Fischer wasn't. Quick question: Did McCaskill's ads calling Akin "too conservative" help him surge with conservative Republicans? It could be an interesting ploy as a last-ditch effort to save her seat.

Perhaps, but I think "above the fray" will have a lot more to do with it if he wins. Right now I'd put Akin as a slight favorite since per PPP he appears to have momentum. McCaskill will still lose regardless but it'll take longer with Akin as the nominee. Title: Re: MO-R: PPP: Brunner 35% Akin 30% Steelman 25% Post by: RogueBeaver on August 06, 2012, 07:57:31 PM McCaskill is trying to do what Reid did 2 years ago- help pick a weak opponent. Akin's a Berg, not an Angle, so wishful thinking on her part.

Title: Re: MO-R: PPP: Brunner 35% Akin 30% Steelman 25% Post by: RogueBeaver on August 07, 2012, 10:35:50 PM Well they barely caught Akin's late momentum... :P Title: Re: MO-R: PPP: Brunner 35% Akin 30% Steelman 25% Post by: Tender Branson on August 07, 2012, 11:39:19 PM Well, interestingly, Mason-Dixon which showed McCaskill down by about 10 was the biggest junk poll out there ... :P |
