2. Ummm, I hate to ask, but what's the "answer"

You could rationalize yes or no and it's win-win for Obama.

3. The answer would be no

The reason is, the worse Keyes does in this election, the better Obama looks to the nation.

I want Keyes to set an all time low for the percentage vote he takes in a Senatorial race. His current high is 38.2% against Paul Sarbanes in 1988 (Maryland). He MUST do worse than that. Preferably lower than the 29% he took against Mikulski in 1988.

4. He is a slimy bastard, isn't he?

Check out the Trib's coverage of this whole thing; it's pretty damning.

8. I wouldn't really know how to answer that.

I mean, I think he's an excellent choice because he's going to get creamed by Obama, and contribute to the humiliation of the RW.

On the other hand, as someone to seriously consider sending to DC as a Senator, he's a terrible choice.

Well, I'm not registered on that site, and it's too much of a pain to bother, so I won't try to respond to the poll.

9. I said 'Yes'

Because I don't want them deciding to suddenly shift to Oberweiss who could have had a slight chance. All they have done with Keyes is supress their own vote.

Keyes is a very good candidate if we want Obama to win.
