The Poll is first interesting in that there is eaelntislsy no Poll difference between Hasner and Lemieux, with McCallister doubling their position. What makes this more interesting is that McCallister has the poll numbers but he can't find much financial support among his numbers. He's raised little more than gas money to get to his speaking engagements. That in my opinion means soft support that is not really committed to his candidacy, yet. We know he gets strong marks from the Tea Party groups who cheer his blood and glory speechs and swoon at his endless and I do mean endless chatter, but in real numbers fail to attract far too few broad base Republicans to indicate he could win over Nelson. McCallister will need to get to the left of the radical unrealistic Tea Party Idealogs and closer to center to win. The more the Connie Mack numbers are curious as few know who he really is. I suspect the large response is more reflecting of peoples curiosity at this point in their response to his recent entry and this poll. Perhaps it's much more reflective of the peoples notion that they don't see a candidate that has magnetically drawn them to support, leaving voters wanting and looking for new entries. The message to Hasner and LeMieux might well be, get their message more focused and clear. Today neither candidate is getting through to the Republican base in a way that singles them out for positive exceptional consideration. In the Senate race, the beat goes on and with such lackluster poll results.
