The really impressive thing... (Below threshold)1. Posted by Jim Addison | August 22, 2006 8:01 PM | Score: 0 (0 votes cast)
The really impressive thing is that he is pulling almost double McCain's support of 17.5%. Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist is third with 6.5%.
And Allen, Romney, Pataki, Brownback, and Mike Huckabee all trail some guy named "Margin of Error."
That said, we need to remember that a poll eighteen months ahead of the caucuses means little more than fodder for conversation amongst us political junkies.
It's soooo easy to wreck even the most promising campaign. Mitt Romney's father, then-Governor of Michigan George Romney, sank his with a single word: "brainwashed." If he had said the Generals "sugar-coated" the Vietnam situation instead, he might have given Nixon a run for it in 1968.
Ed Muskie blew his almost-certain nomination by crying in the New Hampshire snow. Gary Hart was riding high until he challenged reporters to "follow me." They did - to Donna Rice's apartment.
It's entirely possible someone we haven't even heard mentioned as a candidate will win Iowa a year and a half from now. Remember in 1974, they kept saying, "Jimmy WHO?"

Hopeful sign. I am so OVER McCain and have been for YEARS! He's another politician whose ambition far outstrips his abilities.
