It's a horse race

The Fresh Talk poll this week is fairly tight, with only one day of voting left. To the question:
"Should a radura symbol or any other labeling be required to inform consumers fresh produce was irradiated?"
The results so far 13 yes and 9 no - still close enough for a lead change down the stretch.


The news about Sen. Larry Craig still continues to capture a lot of media bandwidth. Here is a transcript from the O'Reilly Factor last night.
I'm intrigued as to what the industry's reaction will be: It could be quiet support, public disappointment or no comment. I have a call into United to get their reaction but haven't talked to Robert Guenther or Tom Stenzel yet. I will try to weigh in with Sharon Hughes of the NCAE as well. From all appearances, Republicans are quickly distancing themselves from Sen. Craig. It's hard to imagine the circumstance that Craig can before a forceful champion for immigration reform or any other issue now.

I'm thinking the next Fresh Talk Poll has found its topic.
