Breaking: New poll shows Russell over Murtha, 48-35

A Pennsylvania source has just leaked me brand spanking new poll data showing GOP upstart Bill Russell leading John Murtha among over 800 probable voters by 48-35.
This comes on top of the Susquehanna poll showing Murtha ahead of Russell by 4 points, within the margin of error.
The new poll is from Dane and Associates, which surveyed over 800 probable voters, randomly selected to reflect the district makeup, on Wednesday night.

My syndicated column tomorrow will spotlight Russell’s conservative counterinsurgent campaign, which has been buoyed by grass-roots word-of-mouth and Internet activism.
Keep it up.
The Russell Brigade needs all the help it can get.
Conservatives can make a difference in this election. We do have candidates who will fight for us. So fight for them. Make your voice heard.
***
And yes, these new poll results do have implications for the McCain-Obama race in Penn, don’t they?
More to come…

Did anyone see the story I posted at #73 from yesterday? Thats the only place I’ve seen it.
Dem spin:
Robber was just trying to spread the wealth around when she provoked him with that McCain sticker, which also proves she is a racist and deserved to be punished. Obviously a hate crime on her part for which she should be prosecuted.
I think he’s the guy in charge of the Obama campaign’s fund raising.
Angry liberals. THey don’t realize they are digging their own grave. Prayers for the victim. A city bus to the cheek for the dark-skinned black man.
I’m sure Murtha will have plenty of job offers with the MSM as commentator if he loses.
Glock 40 behind the left ear……waste of good prison space.
I’ve never donated to a political candidate before. Until today. Murtha needs to be retired by his constituents. (I live in San Diego, not Penn…)
Now, if we can get Barney Frank in jail for his mismanagement of Fanny/Freddie…
Would that ALL our honest citizens be armed–the bad guys are. The surveillance cameras don’t really help–the bad guys have learned to work around them.
The Leftist have done their work well–just a case of moral equivalency here–Bush lied slice the Bitche’s face. Got to give that one to the trolls.
But we do have Breaking: New poll shows Russell over Murtha, 48-35

I’ve had the pleasure of interviewing Bill twice and he is a great man. GO BILL GO!!!!!!!
Too bad it takes several direct insults for the Democratic dope electorate in Pennsylvania to wise up and turn out Abscam Jack (if it plays out the way we hope it will). Apparently they could not do it on principle. Liberalism really is a mental disease.
Go William T Russell, from one of your old troops, a redleg from the 1ID ROC, Bamberg, Germany!!! We’re all pulling for you!
Just went to the Russell Brigade site and gave them another donation. Maybe some Johnstownies are not so insular after all!
My thoughts exactly.
Someone who has been taught from youth that they are victims, the “man” is keeping them down, the whiteman is the child of the Devil, their minister screams “God Damn America”, going to school is acting white, taking what you want is reparations, working is for Uncle Toms.
All in one sentence. Read BroBama’s book “Dreams From My Father”; it is all there. There will be, probably is, more such attacks. Let us see if Tingle Legs Matthews picks up the story. (you, I can’t watch the punk)

For one, after his most recent statements, I think he’d be a perfect fit as the Andy Rooney of Comedy Central’s Chocolate News
The Murtha race will say something about voters. Incumbents, across the board are arrogant in their belief that they will stay in office and in power no matter what they say or do. The Senate is worse than the House, but a 90%+ reelection ratio creates the problems that we the citizens are experiencing.
GO RUSSELL !
Go Bill! Bye Murtha! Frank, Pelosi and others too numerous to name need to go too!
When Obama loses, watch out for the riots. This crowd just can not be civil. The Palin rally in Philly had an unruly group of Obama thugs trying to harass people attending the rally. They know their guy can’t win on merits alone and they won’t get the “spread the wealth” checks if Obama loses.
I would vote for Russell but I don’t live there.
Where is ACORN when I need them?
No problem, they have you down as Daisy Duck.
I am sending Russell and Dole and McCain 25$.00 each. It may not be much but it is all I can do right now. It is time PEOPLE to put our money out there. We are talking a possible Democrat Supermajority, an Obama White house, and the possibility of Obama picking not only 3 Supremes, but numerous District and Appelate judges. Let’s do this. Never mind the other differences, these outweigh those. Linda in Chesapeake, Va. A state BTW that is probably going to end up with two Dem Senators. And a woman from who worked with Moveon.org that is trying to take Randy Forbes seat in the house. He is my representative. Help us out here…!!!!
Typical tactic of the left these days. They are well taught by their masters to emulate their heroes (Marx, Stalin, Castro, Mugabe, Chavez, etc.).
Are voters telling one thing for internal polls and something else to the national polsters? The Govs of PA and CO seem to think that something is going on under the radar.
The national polls seem to weighted the way they perceive the composition of the US to be. If there are more registered Dems, then more dems are polled skewing the results to Obama. What about the states where people register with a party just to have a say in the primary, but are not really solid members of the party? Is Obama having a false sense of security while he builds his massive stage for his election night party? Waiting for Obama’s Dewey moment. Anyone have a NYT for him to use?
All polls are BS. Personally, I think it should be against the law to do any political polling. Since polling is about as scientific as evolution or global warming.
Which is why the liberals love them so much. They’re not scientific but the liberals can claim the are.
Funny how the CBS polls all look like they polled each other around the water cooler.
Gee, can’t wait until Obama loses!
Can I please get a small shout out Michelle ? I sent you alot of stuff over the past year about Mr Russell keeping him in the news and on your site.
I’m very glad to do it but would be nice to say thanks to my small effort.
Woo Hoo!
Go Bill. Kick that traitorous, limp-spined liberal’s butt.
How about this as a reason why McCain supports are afraid to put a sticker on their car or a sign on their lawn in liberal areas… like me.
I’ll say it: “Thanks, William Amos“.

Bill Russell’s is the only out-of-state campaign to which I’ve donated any money. I’m glad you helped bring him and his righteous effort to our attention.
Exactly!!
The real shame is I told the GOP and RNC over a year ago how to win. And they all ignored me except for Mr Russell’s cmapign which did hear me out.
Grassroots GOTV is the wave of the future. The media driven campaign is dead.
Proverbs 16:18 Pride goes before destruction,
a haughty spirit before a fall.
Buh bye, Murtha. Come back when you can’t stay so long.
I understand Okinawa has job openings for has beens.
Thanks Michelle! Just sent him some money. Would love to see Jack Murtha lose.

Hilarious – almost choked on my soda laughing.
nah nah nah,
nah nah nah,
hey hey hey,
goodbye
-
AND Watershed with her clothing fetish interjects meaningless drivel once again. Way to go watershed, once again proving that the left is suckage over substance regardless of the conversation.
This could be the reason Obama & McCain have moved into a vitual tie in the state!
When Murtha loses it will kick off his campaign as a talk show pundit. Tool!
I have a friend that has been contributing to Russell’s campaign for months. I love that Murtha’s mouth has ended up being more effective than any amount of money! I have been praying for his defeat ever since Haditha.
YES!!!! I want to see this old dog go down!
I hope Murtha gets his a$$ taken to the woodshed and handed to him. Plus, that EVERYONE in the world sees what happens when you mess with those Bible and gun clingers!
Now, if only this attitude would catch fire and spread across America…
While I was clinging to my guns and strange religion….I found the time to send a little help to Col. Russell. Since he’s in Pennsylvania…I figured something with a picture of Benjamin Franklin was appropriate.

Best news I hve heard all day! Can’t wait until all the rednecks and racists vote Murtha out the door.
Term Limits
No guarantee against stupid reps but might prevent senile reps.
Voters often seem to have frustratingly short memory spans; I hope the ‘redneck racists’ don’t forget what Murtha said between now and Nov 4th.
oh, one more thing..
OINK OINK OINK OINK SQUEALLLLLL!
nb: I hope I’m not the only one that thinks Murtha looks like a piglet.
AH! Finally some good news to sleep on.
Thanks Michelle.
Sent my second donation in on the website tonight – I don’t live in PA, and I had no idea until tonight that there’s still a chance!
I’m doing the happy dance because Russell is out front, but I want to be happy like this because Pelosi is loosing!
Well, at least the folks in Johnstown will have someone on the ballot they can trust in some position of government. Obama: socialist. McCain: moderate socialist. Either way, Americans lose. At least with voting for more folks like Russell (from what I can gather about him), McCain or Obama will have a tougher time enacting more socialistic economic policies or amnesty or…
Please God, let this Russell guy into Congress! More good and decent people in DC, please!
Thank you so much, this is such great news! I hope it keeps up and Russell wins. Prayers and fingers crossed this will happen.
Wonder if I can still register in Pennsylvania and vote there instead.
Thanks for the GREAT NEWS MM… I hope his polls continue to rise, and he kicks this piece of HUMAN WASTE to the curb… GO COLONEL RUSSELL!!!
I’m concerned that with the additional political muscle of Tony Romo, Marion Barber, Terrell Owens, Patrick Crayton, DeMarcus Ware, Wade Phillips, Jerry Jones, the cheerleaders and their accompanying votes, that Murtha may eke out a win here.
