Holy, Shmoly! 26%? What is up, Kentucky?

    I'm not a big SurveyUSA fan (automated pollers bother me for many reasons).  I know it is a "red state".  I know Sen. Obama is ahead in pledged delegates, etc.  I know the demographics thing.  I know it is only one state.  I know Sen. Clinton lost states like this, too.

    I know all of these things.  But, HOW does the Democrat's front-runner trail 62-26% in a poll for the upcoming primary?  If our nominee is that clear, he - or, she - should not get blown out like that in any primary.

    I've NEVER been a fan of "draft" efforts - potential candidates should get in and be tested.  And, I'm still not saying that we (Democrats) should look elsewhere.  But, this is certainly an argument against declaring the race over and/or compelling super delegates to vote for one or the other.
