The Overrated One reads a poll, which matters mostly because it's Yepsen. Most interesting bon mots:
Blouin appears to be in reverse gear... proving the rule that you can be a big shot inside the Statehouse, but you're still a statewide election loser because no one outside the building knows who you are. (See former House Speaker Donald Avenson for details.)
And Blouin's been tripped up by the abortion issue. He's pro-life but now says he wouldn't sign any pro-life bills into law. In other words, Blouin is still a pro-lifer but won't do anything because of it. It looks wishy-washy.This poll didn't measure the respective primary contests, but the results square with what Culver's strategists have long thought — that Patty Judge, not Mike Blouin or Ed Fallon, is the person they've got to watch.
A quick look at the poll numbers themselves: Nussle is pretty steady against the four main Dems, between 42 and 45. But look at how the Dems fare:
Blouin loses over HALF the Democratic support, even more than the "extreme" Fallon. You can't write all that off to "lower name ID than Culver."
