Gardner only leads Udall by 3 among Indies and Udall actually lead Gardner in the 3rd-party-less matchup. If Democrats and Republicans turn out in roughly equal numbers on election day, then it's a 50-50 race and not a 6-point lead for Gardner. 1) Without Shogun, Gardner leads 49-44 2) Lol unskewing Title: Re: CO-Sen, Quinnipiac: Gardner in the lead Post by: Tender Branson on October 16, 2014, 08:04:20 AM The poll indicates that this is a tied race.
Gardner only leads Udall by 3 among Indies (which is well within the MoE) and Udall actually leads Gardner among Indies in the 3rd-party-less matchup. If Democrats and Republicans turn out in roughly equal numbers on election day (which is not impossible), then it's a 50-50 race and not a 6-point lead for Gardner.

No, I'm pretty sure that's s six-point lead for Gardner. Title: Re: CO-Sen, Quinnipiac: Gardner in the lead Post by: DrScholl on October 16, 2014, 10:06:48 AM There is no way that Gardner leads by 6% and is only 3% with independents, those sort of numbers almost never translate into that big of a Republican lead.

No, I'm pretty sure that's s six-point lead for Gardner. Do you know anything about MoE? An honest assessment of this race puts this poll well within the margin of error. Gardner has had a consistent lead in all of the polls in the two-to-six point range this month. Unless all of the polls are wrong, it looks like it is Gardner's race to lose at this point. I'd even surmise to say that Colorado is now ahead of Iowa when it comes to which state is more likely to change control of the Senate in rank order.

If this goes as badly as the polls say it is, I think its time for new state party leadership...especially if Crist pulls it off in Florida.

How's that unemployment rate in the African-American community under the Obama Presidency? But I digress... It's amazing how your worldview changes based on your ideology.

The difference between candidates is clear here.

As with most two-term Presidents, that loving feeling is gone. It doesn't shock me that the marginal winners with D next to their names from the '08 class are: 1) vulnerable and 2) likely to be defeated by their Republican opponents. It's politics 101 at the end of the day. It's how George W. Bush lost the House in 2006.

This is the kind of seat Dems should expect to lose in a decent Republican year which is unfortunately what 2014 is starting to look like. Dem incumbents in more diverse swing states (VA, NC, even LA all things considered as a non-swing state) are holding up much better than Dems with much less diverse electorates (CO, IA) and for that reason I'm seeing Scott Brown as a surprise winner now.

Title: Re: CO-Sen, Quinnipiac: Gardner in the lead Post by: krazen1211 on October 16, 2014, 04:40:36 PM It's important to note that this poll is sorely lacking in the number of whites. Unskewing the poll to correct this would naturally further enhance Gardner's lead.

Though it's not like Colorado was ever a reliable Dem state, it's starting to look more and more like it's not that Hillary is particularly weak there, but that Obama was particularly strong there.

This is your natural corrective action in a sixth year of a Presidency. These Senators that were elected in 2008 no longer have the POTUS-elect's coattails/good feelings that got them elected and the electorate is tired of the incumbent. It doesn't matter what the party affiliation of the President is. The six-year-itch is alive and well.
