when they are sending emails that they are leading in polls based on a social networking site. Just received this from the Rand Knight campaign:
In a poll being conducted by www.adonkeyandanelephantwalkintoabar.com, Rand Knight is leading his announced primary opponents, proving that he is the only progressive Democrat running for U.S. Senate and the party's best hope of beating incumbent Saxby Chambliss.Rand Knight: 16.28%
Dale Cardwell: 11.63%
Vernon Jones: 0.00%
Rand, precious, Donkey and Elephant is a social networking site...precious, Donkey and Elephant is not a blog. Its like MySpace or Facebook, but only cooler because our favorite Georgia Democrat, Angela Trigg, designed and runs the site. Bless his heart.
UPDATE: that dang Internets just keep things like this around forever. Here's the full poll as it was written and tallied (many, many moons ago):
If the Democratic Primary Election were held today, which of the following candidates would you support to face Saxby Chambliss for the US Senate in 2008? Never mind if they haven't declared:Wyc Orr: 25.58%
Rand Knight: 16.28%
Dale Cardwell: 11.63%
Vernon Jones: 0.00%
Jim Marshall: 46.51%
Ouch... the desperate thermometer has grown...

Odd, I gave him my card ages ago, and never once have I gotten an e-mail from this campaign.

I wonder how many of the people who voted for Marshall are now busy spilling his blood?

Chris,
I know of at least 4 people who voted for Jimbo who would like to spill his blood. They voted for him because they had no other alternative (other than to not vote at all and that's just un-American). Hopefully, they will have some sort of choice next year.
