Another Poll At RightWingNews.com

by @ 8:55 on October 27, 2008. Filed under Politics - National.

John Hawkins at Rightwingnews.com has put up another poll of Right-of-Center bloggers.   You’ll find the poll here and my responses below:

1) Who do you think is going to win the election?

A) John McCain
B) Barack Obama

2) Do you think Sarah Palin has been a plus or a minus to the ticket?

A) Minus
B) Plus

3) How do you feel about Sarah Palin as a candidate?

A) I really like her!
B) She’s so-so.
C) I’m not a big fan!

4) The Republican Party did poorly in the 2006 election and even if McCain wins is on track to do poorly again in this years Congressional races. If you had to choose between these two options, do you think that’s because they were

A) Too conservative
B) Not conservative enough

5) Do you believe the mainstream media’s coverage has been…
A) Relatively fair and even handed.
B) Slightly biased in favor of Barack Obama.
C) Slightly biased in favor of John McCain.
D) Heavily biased in favor of Barack Obama.
E) Heavily biased in favor of John McCain.

6) Do you think Barack Obama is…

A) Honest (Yes or no?)
B) Patriotic (Yes or no?)
C) Qualified be President (Yes or no?)

Probably no real big surprises in the poll’s answers.   Yes, I want McCain to win and while I think it can still happen, if I had to put money down today I’d have to say he won’t.   That’s not defeatism, just an assessment.

I had problems answering the honesty question.   There have certainly been things I would consider dishonest answers from Obama.   However, I don’t know that they were in his mind and if I were honest I’m sure I could find equally equivocated answers from McCain that if I was partisan left, I would find dishonest.

I do like Sarah Palin.   She strikes me as genuine.   I don’t get the smarmy meter running to extremes when I hear her talk, unlike nearly every other politician I’ve ever met, left or right.
