Internal polling shows Lamm with lead
Well, here are those numbers I made a cryptic reference to a couple posts back. From a Peggy Lamm for Congress press release that just popped up in my inbox:
"Arvada, CO - A survey released today shows Peggy Lamm holding a double-digit lead over her competitors in the Democratic primary for Colorado's 7th Congressional District. Lamm's history of fighting for reform - as Co-Chair of the CU recruiting investigation, as a leading proponent of the do-not-call list, and as a concerned citizen fighting against a taxpayer subsidized Wal-Mart in Westminster - is attracting Democratic primary voters to her campaign."
The survey of 400 likely primary voters was conducted for the Lamm campaign by RBI Strategy and Research. The margin of error is just under 5%.
Lamm took the opportunity to blast the current administration, which I always think is fun. "President Bush and Congress are taking us in the exact wrong direction, and we need Democrats who will stand up for their beliefs, and focus on real issues - affordable health care, scrapping the Republican Medicaid plan, and investing in renewable energy sources that will create jobs, reduce our dependence on foreign oil, and even lower our home heating costs."
The numbers shake out like this:
Peggy Lamm - 33%
Leaning Lamm - 11%
Herb Rubenstein - 1%
Leaning Rubenstein - 1%
Ed Perlmutter - 17%
Leaning Perlmutter - 6%
The Lamm folks are, understandably, pretty happy. Especially considering that they just got a staff on the ground a couple weeks ago. I am sure the Perlmutter and Rubenstein supporters have their own views and they are more than welcome to post them on this thread.
I want to see the Democrats sweep the country and recapture the House of Representatives. (I originally wrote "take back the house," but I rephrased and a couple people out there know why. Ha ha.) So I'm anxious for the people in CD7 to get behind a candidate after the March caucuses. And I think Lamm would match up well against Republican nominee-apparent Rick O'Donnell.

Herb Rubenstein is against the war in Iraq. 80% of Democrats are against the war in Iraq.
Ed Perlmutter has no position on the war in Iraq. Peggy Lamm has no position on the war in Iraq. Watch Herb's numbers rise when his opposition to the war becomes better known
BFD! Sure, everyone is against the war. The question is how to implement a strategic withdrawl that doesn't leave the Iraqui citizens at the mercy of the warring factions. It would be absolutely unacceptable to have created this anarchy, and then just say..."oh, well, too bad, so sad, we're outa here!"
Saying you're against the war, is like saying you're against Cancer.
Just because Herb produces volumes of verbage doesn't indicate anything in particular regarding Lamm & Perlmutter. Of course they are against the war. It's a given!
