I was curious as to what the AA(L)RP (With a nod to Rush Limbaugh, that’s the American Association of [Liberal] Retired Persons) would say about the Virginia Governor’s race and guess what? Here’s the article and here’s a highlight: Virginia voters get a choice this year between gubernatorial candidates with strongly divergent views on issues important […]

I was there tonight (Thank the Lord!) tonight for the remarks of Robert Sarvis, Libertarian candidate for Governor to the Crusade for Voters and he was fabulous! He started by discussing the need for the Rule of Law – how we have to stop special interest perks and tax breaks from both parties. How we […]

Well, there they go again. Polls should measure public opinion, not attempt to sway it. What makes for a good poll these days? Well, the same as always. A good sample size, I prefer at least 1,000. And most importantly, a party makeup that realistically reflects the public at large. These days, I accept a […]

The McDonnell campaign has been very clear about the large lead in most polls. They don’t believe their lead is double digits. Public Policy Polling has some interesting and, I believe, highly partisan polls. The conclusions they reach in their explanations show their pro Democrat bias.
