Good news in recent KCCI poll
While Braindead and Grasscutter are still leading, both are within striking distance and trending down rather fast.
If you can please help these guys out and throw them an anchor in the form of an LTTE in your local paper or a contribution to Culver or Conlin.
=======================================================

http://www.bleedingheartland.com/diary/3930/big-gains-for-conlin-and-culver-in-new-kcci-poll

In the Senate race, five-term incumbent Republican Chuck Grassley leads Conlin 49 percent to 40 percent. The last time Research 2000 polled this race for KCCI in mid-February, Grassley led Conlin 56-35. The firm has not polled Grassley against either of the other Democratic Senate candidates, Tom Fiegen and Bob Krause.

In the governor's race, the new poll found former Governor Terry Branstad leading Culver 48 percent to 41 percent. Normally those numbers wouldn't look good for an incumbent, but in Research 2000's February poll for KCCI, Branstad's lead was twice as large (54-38). DavidNYC of Swing State Project quipped that Culver's numbers no longer resemble those of the 1962 New York Mets but look more like those of the 1963 Mets. Culver led Bob Vander Plaats 44 percent to 40 percent and Rod Roberts by 46 percent to 36 percent.

If you want to send an LTTE but don't want to write one please PM me. I have access to people who want to write and all the paper's addresses.

1. grassley has improved his lead to 54-37
I want Conlin to win at least some counties in Iowa. Some I would want her to win would be Polk, Johnson, Scott, Black Hawk, Linn, Dubuque, Wapello and Story.

2. don't give up yet. Be sure to volunteer to make calls, write LTTEs and
knock doors. Grassley is very vulnerable. His approval is below 50%.
He is scared shitless right now.
So help us contact voters. Join up with your county party or contact the campaign. It will take an all out effort.
