You gotta love the numbers.
You gotta love the numbers. Do you think Haslam will/can pay Google to get better numbers?
haslam & burchett
A recent article said that bill was leading in the polls by better than 5/1 and this wknd their poll showed that tim burchett was leading by 4/1.
I think that both of these polls were work in progress ( think tyler harber aka cas walker in recent elections) and the results in the above post are probably a true reflection of political landscape at this time. If their polls were correct they wouldn't have felt the need to bring in Tom Ingram in such a hurried fashion. I'm just surprised this article saw the light of day in the kns.bruce
