The views presented on this site in no way reflects those of my employer, family, friends, acquaintances or distant cousins as these generally fall into three categories: the smart ones that agree with me, those that tolerate me because of my wit, charm, great intellect and modesty, and those who think that I'm a raving wingnut who's one Kennedy away from going medieval on the next vegan moonbat that barks.
I do not do links for the sake of reciprocity. I link only to those sites that I read and I only read RSS feeds. Feel free to send me a link to your site and I'll take a look. If I like it, and if you have a feed, I'll add you to my blogroll.

While straw polls are rarely meaningful, especially ones that take place 20 months before an election, Mitt Romney must be feeling pretty good right now.
Consider this: a Yankee governor from the state that saddled America with Ted Kennedy, with little name recognition, comes to the South and Midwest and wowed everyone to the point where he took second in a straw poll. Further, he bested popular candidates that have high name recognition in the South and Midwest: Arizona Sen. John McCain and Virginia Sen. George Allen.
