My opinion has always been....on football polls do not rate them until they have played at least six games.......how many years equals six games..a lot !

I apply the same philosophy to those who rank Presidents !

take your pick:

sub·stan·tial
   [suhb-stan-shuhl] Show IPA

2.

3.

Hmmmnnnn I wonder if there is a specific for "considerable"? I kinda thought substantial was relative....eh? Considerable would mean one thing to a poor person VS what it might mean to Warren Buffet. Last I checked....substantial works the same way!!

Maybe I should have said:
a bunch
a lot
maybe a whole bunch

But they too are all relative.

And it would not matter since I was not praising Obama it would come under fire...no matter what.

...and a very "substantial" number of American voters believe that the current Republican slate of candidates are not worth a bowl of warm spit.

I'll accept that as a back handed concession!

Can you provide a source for the "Warm Spit Poll"?
