Evidence of Rs peaking early?

Wow, Beck sold less than 10% of tickets for NJ event

This, on the same weekend he appears on the cover of the New York Times Sunday magazine, and again we're told he's a hugely important and influential figure in American politics today.


From the Asbury Park Press [emphasis added]:

A crowd of about 700 people, comprised mostly of Tea Party supporters, gathered at Six Flags Great Adventure on Saturday to help kick off conservative talk-show host Glenn Beck's "Restoring America'' tour.

And the kicker:

Although the crowd was well short of the 8,000 capacity for the arena, there was a large contingent of conservative media in attendance.

Experts say Rahm Emanuel not a legal resident of city
MAYOR'S RACE | Courts may disagree

October 4, 2010
BY ABDON M. PALLASCH Political Reporter/apallasch@suntimes.com
The first question isn't: Can Rahm win? It's: Can Rahm run?

Sunday, Rahm Emanuel announced in a video posted on a website that he is preparing to run for mayor of Chicago. But two of Chicago's top election lawyers say the state's municipal code is crystal clear that a candidate for mayor must reside in the town for a year before the election.


Rahm Emanuel owns the home at right, but he rented it out when he became White House chief of staff last year -- and the tenant refuses to break the lease.

That doesn't mean they must simply own a home in the city that they rent out to someone else. They must have a place they can walk into, keep a toothbrush, hang up their jacket and occasionally sleep, the lawyers say.

Another three election lawyers say Emanuel could be thrown off the ballot on a residency challenge. None says Emanuel will have it easy.
