Caller:  I'm calling from the Republican National Committee with regard to the Michigan Republican State Convention.  Would you be willing to participate in a three-question survey?

Me:  Sure

Caller:  How do you intend to send your state delegation to the Republican National Convention in Tampa:  Mitt Romney, Ron Paul, or Uncommitted?

Me:  Uncommitted

Caller:  In the contest for Michigan's Republican National Committeeman, how do you intend to vote:  Saul Anuzis, Dave Agema, or G. J. LaRouche?

Me:  Dave Agema

Caller:  In the contest for Michigan's Republican National Committeewoman, how do you intend to vote:  Holly Hughes or Terri Lynn Land?

Me:  Undecided

Caller:  Thank you.

Me:  Um, real quick; did you say call is from the RNC?

Caller:  Yes

Me:  And where are you calling from?

Caller:  Nevada

Me:  Okay

So let me see if I get this straight:  A live poll relative to Michigan's Republican State Convention, originating from Nevada, using a South-Central Michigan area code, is claiming to have been paid for by the RNC.  Is the RNC now calling into Michigan trying to shut out Ron Paul?  Am I the only one here who smells a fish?
