I also like the ideas of polling online gambling support in Nevada, and seeing how Nevada voters would feel about Sandoval appointing a senator for the vacancy.

I have seen that old conspiracy (that he is the son of her daughter or something) pop up again. Would be interesting to see if democrats are as likely to believe anything negative about Palin as Republicans are likely to believe anything negative about Obama (I think birtherism is really just an expression of great disappointment in the president). Seeing as Palin is as unpopular among Democrats as Obama is among Republicans , I'm thinking the number of "trig truthers" is likely to be shockingly high.Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13368456662911294140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2799451770086337664.post-46307135086238199342011-04-21T01:53:44.571-05:002011-04-21T01:53:44.571-05:00Gay Marriage
