Does it win them new voters _ probably not, ... but it does solidify their bases.

It's not likely, but I can see the math.

I'm not terribly swayed by polls at this point.

I've dated some actors that you probably never want to go out with, but that's not because they're actors, but because we didn't connect.

We need to solidify that as much as we can.

Whoever said, ''It's not whether you win or lose that counts,'' probably lost.
