Wacky Rand

Gosh, I know I've picked on the poor guy a few times now, but someone needs to help Rand Knight come back down to earth ...

"We are winning this U.S. Senate race, period," Knight said. "We've got it in the bag. Saxby's going home. ... You better pick somebody who you know is going to go up there and work for you."

On one hand, I admire the idealism. But, then again, on the other hand, it's more than a stretch to suggest that the current crop of Democratic candidates have a chance to knock off Saxby Chambliss ... particularly based on the latest polling data.

Chambliss leads Knight 54 percent to 30 percent, the worst showing among the hypothetical matchups involving declared candidates. Compounding that, Knight ranks last among Democratic challengers in the infamous 'viewed favorably' category as only 21 percent view him favorably, compared to 42 percent who already don't care for him despite his low name recognition.

Better than Nunn polled 7 months before his primary...besides, ahve you personally ever been a guest speaker at a Democratic County Party meeting...do you know what they want to hear after every political pundit in the country beats them up...and Please...Strategic Vision is a Republican Polling firm...the better polls (not released publicly yet, data just analyzed yesterday) show Saxby at 43%...but whatever...beat up on Rand without looking at what background he brings to the table...you're just like the rest of the uninformed but need to be heard crowd.
