Title: MO-Wilson Research (R): Republican poll shows Talent (R) far ahead
Post by: Tender Branson on December 31, 2010, 10:00:34 AM
It should be noted that Wilson Research is a very, very bad internal pollster, that showed Fiorina and Whitman winning by 3 points one week ahead of the election, when they actually lost by 10 and 13 points.

Ok, here are the results:

51% Talent (R)
40% McCaskill (D)

44% McCaskill (D)
44% Steelman (R)

Keeping in mind they are bad at polling, McCaskill will likely face a tough race.

Doesn't McCaskill have mafia ties?

Looks like this is gonna be a lost cause for McCaskill. Especially her vote on the HCR is devestating in MO.

This comment was made quite a while as you are late posting to this. I was simply stating that it will be a uphill battle for McCaskill MO has the highest unemployment rate in the nation and as Carnahan found out it may cost her, but nothing is inevitable.

I meant you. You did rather have a point in that McCaskill is going to be fighting an uphill battle.

Ehh no it does't.  Not even close.   Missouri 9.4%,  Nevada 14.3%.....

It's a Republican poll, don't worry. I still suspect it to be close, though, no matter which candidate ends up winning. True Missouri style, really.

How does he have a point? A R internal poll showing Talent leading in order to raise money for his campaign shows she's "a lost cause"?

No, a general point: McCaskill is in for a tough one. That's all I'm saying.

Ok, that's fine... there's just a world of difference between that and "a lost cause."

Perhaps I could have worded it better. Either way, that was what I meant. I certainly don't think she's definitely gone, but at her numbers(outside of this poll, even), she's a far sight from safe.

If McCaskill is "down" only 11 in an even worse than average internal poll during the troft (hopefully) that is Jan 2011, that's actually not too bad at all.

He didn't say that originally, of course. Something being a lost cause is not equivalent to something being an uphill battle.
