Starting Point Polling (Week 4 September 07)

Democrats

Pink Daschle, Brown Warner, Red Richardson

Republicans
Romney 52.5%
Huckabee 25.5%

This national polling was done scientifically.
For the democrats I used the Dec 06 polls and times them by ten. (Because Warner and Daschle weren't included in the polls after that.
The Republicans were more simple, as I just multiplied Romney, Huckabee, and Tancredo's number averages from October 07 by 5.

Tancredo gains over 500,000 fans on FaceBook, MySpace, and YouTube. He gains crucial endorsements from Chris Simcox, Arizona Senator John McCain, and Texas Congressman Ron Paul. He has an Internet campaign in full swing, and is traveling all over Iowa:

"I hope to God that we can save this nation from illegal immigrants, suppressed economic growth, and radical jihad. People are coming to together in a grassroots movement, and are speaking out for the real change that they need. I am proud of my nation and I hope you are ready to maintain our greatness."

I don't remembr ever giving you those endorsements.

By the way, he still didn't remove the Grassley quote.

Seriously, take a chill pill. I forgot I wrote his name down twice. I edited it.

ElectoralJew, feel free to dock me a point or two for this to make Officepark happy. I really don't care.

Everythings fine. He just got them mixed up. I've done that myself before.

At a joint rally in New Orleans, Senator's McCain and Vitter both endorse Mitt Romney, citing his economic experience as the main reason for their support.

McCain endorsed Tancredo. Remember?

It was a mistake on my part.

[ej2mm15]

Mike Huckabee campaigns in Iowa, visiting Ames, Cedar Rapids and Des Moines. He appears with Chuck Grassley, Steve King and Tom Latham. He then goes to campaign in Oklahoma alongside representatives John Sullivan and Tom Cole.

Cole says, "This is a very important decision for the Republicans to make. While all of the candidates are very respectable, I think that Mike Huckabee is the best choice for the Republican party, and I encourage all Republicans to vote for him in the primaries. He has the conservative record and the experience to lead the Republicans in 2008."

He then campaigns in South Carolina with Lieutenant Governor Andre Bauer, and in Florida with Senator Mel Martinez and Lt. Governor Jeff Kottkamp.

I have Steve King. ElectoralJew just confirmed it.

Oh crap, TC's right. I missed it because it was really far back in my PM's. Sorry again.
