BUT he's one of the best in the business. I know he wouldn't release it if it wasn't favorable, but he also would not put out garbage.

I have seen it be light blue or light pink. it's never been strongly leaning democratic, apparently it's swinging blue

and there are a lot of Ron Paul aficionados, most of whom (of the ones I know and talk to) are sitting out this election as they can't bring themselves to vote for Robme.

For the life of me, I can't believe anyone would vote for Dean Heller. He sounds like Dean Martin on crack.
