Harry Reid Uses "The New Math" In Responding To Polling Numbers

I try and refrain from posting the works of others but this was too good to pass up. Harry Reid, despite trailing in all polls I could find, touting that he is 'polling well' in his re-election bid.

If anyone can find a reputable poll that has him winning the general election please feel free to correct my blog but I couldn't find one in the land of Google.

Reid: "All of my polling numbers are good"

Harry Reid, who in a tough re-election fight, was asked today if he thinks his recent focus on health care in DC will cost him his job in Nevada -- and responded with the surprising assertion that his poll numbers are "good."

"I don't answer hypothetical questions. Everything is going well," said Reid, despite recent public polls showing him trailing potential GOP opponents Sue Lowden and Danny Tarkanian by a significant margin.

"As far as all the work we've done, all my polling numbers are good," said Reid, speaking in the Capitol. "All my polling numbers are good, and I'm doing the best I can for the people of this country and the people of Nevada."

A Mason-Dixon Poll released last week found Reid trailing Lowden by a 49-to-39 percent margin; and trailing Tarkanian by a 48-to-43 percent margin.

Reid might have been referring to unreleased internal campaign polls that reportedly show him leading all comers.

Come on Harry. Do you actually think that people are THAT stupid?

If the GOP can find a true strong challenger they can take him out.
