Does the big guy need any more help from his friends?
From the start, it was pretty obvious that the big guy was doomed to failure in November anyway, given that if he'd made it to the ballot, he would be running against a popular and well-reputed incumbent.....a red incumbent in a red city.
However, he might have had a chance to get on the November ballot, compelling the DUmpster to track the campaign another six months, which could get old and stale. Me, personally, I'd just as soon wrap up Omaha Steve on May 15.
There's four candidates running in the May primary, and the two top vote-getters advance to that ballot.
There's two (R)s running for that seat, and one (L), which could split the red vote three ways, enabling the big guy to come in second on May 15.
That is possible, one supposes.
But I suspect most would be content with the two (R)s on the ballot, or one (R) and the (L).
So this question about the big guy: does he need any more help from his friends to keep from coming in last?
Or is the work of his friends done?
This poll is simply a "yes" or "not sure" or "no" thing, nothing more than that.
And the usual disclaimer; conservativecave and the DUmpster, and individual members of conservativecave, have no connections--personal, social, business, political--with the two (R) candidates and the one (L) candidate. The DUmpster is following this campaign as a public service, for the Good of Humanity, no other reason. As for the friends of the (D) candidate, their only dog in this fight is the big guy.
