I always poll better than the the Dem index in my district. As I said, I got the highest percentage for a Democrat against an incumbent in over 50 years in my Congressional district despite being outspent $2 million to $14,000 by a popular 20 year incumbent who was a pork barrel champion. So, I don't think it is my attitude.
It's a tough job and mincing words won't help.
