Rasmussen's logic: "Let's see ... it's looking like there's a possibility our guys might lose or go to a runoff, so it's probably ok to beat that fraud drum now! Maybe we can pull out a win in a re-do!"

EDIT: My apologies to my fellow frens and to Rasmussen. I didn't realize Rasmussen was one of the good guys. That's what I get for assuming rather than doing my homework!! Thanks @Meme_war_ii_vet for setting me straight!
