article on this in Saturday's paper. Inez's campaign even claims to have polls showing her to be in the lead, but I haven't seen a publicly released one that does so. The Fair Tax is killing DeMint. He desperately needs to get the campaign shifted onto some other issue. If not, then Inez will win this November. Inez's recent ads on this issue are very clever as they quote a number of prominent Republicans who over the years have said that such schemes are goofy, thus helping to turn this into an Inez/DeMint race instead of an Dem/Rep race.
