Direct from the left wing media to us per the HuffPost. One of their writers analyzes the Gallup Poll released 8/29 showing a 31% decline in the Democrat brand since 2008. Don't shoot me I'm just the messenger, along with those right wing idiots from Huffington Post...

Rubio: not ready for national stage; great speaker; conservatives would like the pick; has potential "baggage" that could distract and get Team Romney off message; Florida is leaning Republican and don't need Rubio to carry the state if Romney stays on track Christie: two Northeasterners on...

Not exactly where I thought the race would be at this point. Romney is doing better earlier than expected. Most people, including myself, expected majority of polls to show Romney 5 points down at this point given the negativity of the primary season. If it had dragged on into June, still...

Now that we know Buzz is staying, here are my concerns about his coaching and would like people with more bball knowledge than me to correct or fill in the blanks of my average perspective. I cannot stand the "product" put on the floor the last two years, save the 110% effort of a few players...

Sorry but it's time. Trustees need to step up and take control of this situation before it does more damage. Get the coach to resign or fire him, make Wellman accountable for the hire, and replace them both. Any potential risks to a mid-season change went out the window with the team's...

Two of the most reliable (not infallible) indicators of a President's reelection chances have been the "right track, wrong track" polling data and the Gallup Daily Job Approval Tracking. 1) Gallup does a 3 day rolling average. Each day they poll 1500 registered voters then average the 3...

sorry if this is on wrong board. Looking for some tickets to Notre Dame game and ticket office doesn't sell single game tickets to that one. Guess 4 is ideal but whatever works. Thanks.
