I do not believe in polls, but for someone that isn't even on the ballot to be a threat? No wonder I got that e-mail from Dick Armey.

Newser) – Lisa Murkowski isn’t on the ballot in Alaska, but she sure looks like the frontrunner—and that’s how she’s being treated, according to the New York Times. Though reliable polls are hard to find in the sparsely-populated state, Alaskan analysts say the incumbent has a strong chance. Her opponents clearly think so; in a recent debate, Scott McAdams and Joe Miller spent much of their time attacking Murkowski, even though she wasn’t there.

“Maybe we ought to debate Lisa for the rest of the night,” McAdams quipped at one point. Later, when the candidates were supposed to question each other, Miller said, “Scott, I’m tempted to just ask about questions Lisa.” Miller’s position on the ballot may still make him the favorite, but the handcuffed reporter incident hurt him, as did his recent admission that he was disciplined for an ethics breach while working as a Fairbanks North Star Borough lawyer.

Murkowsky is to Alaska as Kennedy is to Massachusettes and the populace is just as stupid in both states. Unfortunately their stupidity doesn't affect just them. It spills over to the rest of us.
