Cleland Could Win in Georgia

A new Public Policy Polling survey finds that if former Sen. Max Cleland (D-GA) could be coaxed into running for his old seat, Democrats might have a real shot at making the race competitive next year.

Of those named in the poll, Cleland "is the only person in the whole bunch who has more than 50% statewide name recognition, with 48% of voters rating him favorably to 29% with an unfavorable view... he would start out with a lead over every Republican we tested him against. He's up 1 against Price, 3 against Kingston, 5 against Gingrey, and 7 against Broun and Handel."

1. I hope he runs!

His was the first name I thought of when I heard Suxby Chambliss was retiring. I would love for him to get his seat back.

2. We can hope he runs

rove should be strung up for the shit he and his cohorts did to Max that caused his defeat. Simple as that

7. What a mighty fine day that would be.

Vindication would be sweet.

10. Would be nice, but there are a lot here who will only vote for bigots and Tbaggers.

The thought of having to listen to Price, Broun, etc., pandering to right wingers ruins my night.

But Cleland definitely has the best shot right now, if he has the energy to go up against those greedy, liars.

11. Service. Integrity. Courage.

Cleland, on 9/11 Commission "deals":

"They don't want any more eyeballs to see their documents than they can possibly get away with. It's a scam, it's absolutely disgusting."
