THE PUNDITS QUERY
« on: January 03, 2008, 12:14:04 AM »
Well, you've read the notes, the notes told the tale, and now it is time for you to post until the cows come home - they're waiting for the pundits to query just like the rest of us.

Today's Iowa Democrat Straw Poll:

RCP Average Polling Data:

Obama 29.0
Clinton 28.6
Edwards 26.0
Richardson 5.0
Biden 4.5

So, if we assume the Ricahrdason/Biden camps will fail to attain the 15% viability threshold, they can easily control which of the" three standing" candidates wins!

If these same folks want to keep the Democrat primary "open" for a while longer, they need to deny either Clinton or Obama  back-to-back finishes  in both Iowa/New Hampshire, so they should throw their votes to Edwards.

Add this to the fact the Edwards' polling data has been trending up, I give him a better than even chance of taking IOWA.

My favorite Premingers are Exodus, Anatomy Of A Murder, Bonjour Tristesse, and Advise and Consent - and I really like almost all his early Fox films starting with Laura.

bk, thanks -  I did not realize about Shire's "recycling."  Although that tune did sound strangely/vaguely familiar.  I'll have to give "Shire at the Movies" another spin!  :)  

It should be noted that I have not seen Take Flight on stage; my comments are strictly related to how the score plays out on disc [for me].

On a related note, I was very pleased to see that in your hopes for the New Year, Kritzerland may entertain the notion of producing some new CDs.    :)    :)    :)

And someone got paid to write that - probably with our tax dollars!  And probably spend a good amount of time doing it!!    :P

"What will tomorrow bring?"
The pundits query.
Will it be cheery?
Will It be sad?

Will it be birds in spring
Or hara-kiri?
