Title: FL-PPP: Crist up 2
Post by: RogueBeaver on January 22, 2014, 06:44:36 AM
43/41. Scott's at 36/51 disapprove, Crist at 36/46. (http://images.politico.com/global/2014/01/21/flgovresults.html) Might a "who do you hate slightly less" strategy work for Scott? Mini-VA. :P

I'm not one to judge polls, but this seems off in comparison to the ones I've seen.

And actually this poll seems Democratic-leaning. What's caused such a fall for Crist?

He only has 66% of Democrats.

20% of them back Scott ? Laughable. Scott can be happy if he gets 10% of them in the end.

This poll actually understates Crist's lead by at least 6 points (assuming 81% of Dems back Crist):

The last Quinnipiac poll had Crist at 86% with Democrats, this poll has an abnormally low 66%.

With 86%, his lead increases by about 8 points to a 10-point lead.

Must be a weird Democratic sample.

It's gonna come down to MI, Pa and FL as well as ME as to which are the three most likely inc are gonna go down and we need MI more than FL to keep control of Senate. Crist is a turncoat, that might be reflected in soft Dem support.

Yeah, in the end no matter how many reservations partisan Democrats have regarding Crist, they will vote for him. Scott is just too hated by everybody to survive.

Looks like an outlier. 20% of Democrats will not vote for Scott.

Realistic approvals, however I expect Crist to be up by a little more.

People realize he's an opportunist.
