1. MD is just one of a three East Coast gov seats we can nab.
We can get it along with NY and MA fairly easily it seems. The Republicans in these states are polling very poorly.

3. Which gap do you doubt?
The gap between Ehrlich and O'Malley, or the gap between O'Malley and Duncan?

5. I dunno
the same polling company(?) did the Steele/Mfume/Cardin polls, which showed Steele doing better than Ehrlich. I would think the Steele questions were asked during the same poll as the O'malley/ehrlich/Duncan questions . . .

6. Personally, I think both polls are off.

They is no denying the Sun's bias. They despise Ehrlich. They are actually in the process of suing Ehrlich.

Ehrlichs approval is at 45%. The chances of him polling below 40% in head to head matchups is pretty slim.

I put much more confidence in the Gonzales Research pull conducted a couple weeks ago.

9. Do you think Steele can sustain his numers or even improve...
by simply using his looks and charisma? Or will he take a huge hit once issues become more important?

10. I don't think
Steele has a lot of room to grow. He has higher name id than the others and people don't know his record. I think we'll end up winning the Senate race by a larger margin than the governor's race.

11. I agree. Cardin is the next Sarbanes.
Both are strong character and integrity that is impecible.

12. The Sun contracted it out
Potomac Inc. is a good operation and its results would not reflect the Sun's own issues with Bobby E.

I was surprised by these results -- and the Mfume - Cardin results -- but I don't think the Ehrlich - Sun feud has anything to do with it.
