Christy Swanson of Richmond speaks at the Republican National Convention
Tyler Whitley reports from Minneapolis:
Pollster Frank Luntz told Virginia’s delegation to the Republican National Convention that voters think the GOP’s vice preidential choice, Sarah Pallin, is not qualified to be president, but “when they see her speak they love her.“
Luntz, who has written a book,“Words that Work” based on his polling experience, advised the Republicans to say “deep sea exploration” rather than offshore drilling. They should say “tax relief” rather than tax cuts, he said.
Polls show that 30 percent of Americans don’t trust capitalism, but 90 percent like free markets, Luntz said.
Luntz, nolw a commentator for Fox News, was Ross Perot’s pollster when he ran for president in 1992.
