The Maverick Conservative

I could take it as another example of this blog's influence, and this blog being RIGHT.  Just about a week ago I endorsed Mitt Romney for President (being braver and more in tune with the fabric of the universe than Rush Limbaugh, who has continued to talk all around who he favors or who will win).   Not only that, but I CALLED the nomination, AND the general election, for President-elect Romney ("President-elect" because of my early projection).

Today, an NBC poll puts Mitt Romney tied for the NATIONAL lead for the Republican nomination with a FADING Rudy Giuliani.   As to Rudy Giuliani, this blog told you MONTHS ago that he was unlikely to win the Republican nomination.  He is too liberal, and when you combine that with his baggage (marriages, etc.), it has always been doubtful that Giulliani could win the nomination (despite his obvious talents in many areas).

Now let me be clear:  This proves me right on POLLS more than it proves me right on Romney (although I am right on Romney--especially for the Republican nomination).  Notice that the POLLS are the only way that the media knows how to cover political races (along with the "politics of personal destruction")--from Sean Hannity to the mainstream media.  Yet, it is proven all of the time that polls are USELESS and STUPID. 

Romney was below 10% in ALL national polls two months ago.  Yet, this blog was telling you at least 4 to 6 MONTHS ago that the Republican nomination would come down to Romney versus Thompson (as it would have if Thompson had entered the race with an effective campaign).  Huckabee inherited the Thompson support (see yesterday's entry as to whether Thompson can make a comeback).  But, as this blog predicted, Giuliani's support peaked early, and was unlikely to ever increase. 

So do I "believe" this latest poll.  NO.  Since it is a poll, and since I reject the idea that polls are an effective way to analyze a campaign (a crusade of this blog is to ELLIMINATE polls by the public rebelling against them, and refusing to cooperate, which would be the BEST thing that ever happened to American politics), I refuse to gloat over a poll result.

However, my ANALYSIS has always been based on a correct view of Republican and national politics.

Thus, I look at it this way:  Whether this NBC poll is accurate or not (and I maintain my position that, as a poll, it is manufactured "new" of NO value), polls will eventually catch up with ME. 

This blog alerted you to the SUCCESS of the Petraeus troop surge in Iraq long before it became obvious to most others.  This blog analyzed the Republican dynamics long before anyone else was telling you (including the ppossibility that the February 5 super primary might lead to a DEADLOCKED Persidential race (going into the convention, if more than two strong candidates remain going into February 5--which applies to the Democrats as well, even if somewhat less likely). 

You even get a lecture in criminal law and media irresponsibility almost daily (see my series on "Drew Peterson and the Evil Media", as well as my exposure of the EVIL of "anonymous sources" in my entry on Albert Puljous).

What else can you ask of a blog?  (Okay, some of you may not like my anti-feminist lectures (correct as they are, or my misogynistic view of women--somewhat tongue in cheek that it is--but you can pass over that stuff, if you want to, to get the analysis that you get anywhere else).
