Ok, I did a little bit of number crunching combining the straw poll results from here:

And the delegate numbers here:
http://www.uselectionatlas.org/MOCK/PRESIDENT/2008R/mock.php (Go vote there!)

These little straw polls are not exactly random samples. They are not a good judge of our standings, at all.

When are we going to get through our heads that most people still don't even know who he is and get outside and start doing something about it, by handing out campaign literature, etc?

Many of us have been doing that for months through our meetup groups!
