GA: Undecided Leads Georgia GOP Primary by Wide Margin

From Bludgeon and Skewer:

Perennial favorite, Undecided, clobbered his competition in the latest Insider Advantage/WSB TV-3 poll released yesterday. This unsung, unfunded and non existent candidate picked up 8% from his April poll position which pegged him at 31% to a dominating 39% in this latest survey.

Undecided's surge to the lead over actual republicans John Oxendine, Nathan "Stinky" Deal and Karen Handel was attributed to the increased TV news presence of candidates causing concern and confusion among likely republican primary voters. The more they see of the choices they have, the less they like it.

ME: Maine Independent's Website Inadvertent Victim of Virtual Streaking

From the Washington Independent:

I’m not sure Maine gubernatorial candidate Steve Abbott meant to couple his new campaign commercial, austerely titled “Prosperity,” with a video on streakers, but it appears he’s doing just that on his campaign website. . . .  No response yet from Abbott’s staff.

Update: Abbott Communications Director Felicia Knight said she first learned of the streaking video from TWI and said the campaign did not compile the video staff picks. “These are not our staff picks,” Knight said, adding that the campaign was “certainly not pleased” to find this content on its site.

Knight suspected that the “staff pick” was actually compiled by BlipTV, the video reader the Abbott campaign is using for their website. Knight’s suspicions were confirmed when she found the “Streak to Win” video listed as the number one video on BlipTV today.

“We are taking out the Blip embeds and adding YouTube,” Knight said, adding that this could serve as a warning to other people who are using BlipTV.
