			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Got this e-mail today from the <a href="http://www.devalpatrick.com" target="_blank">Deval Patrick campaign</a>:</p>
<p>&#8220;Please ignore the polls. I know it feels good to see that, despite the onslaught of attacks from the Healey campaign, our campaign has become even stronger and is leading in opinion polls. But there are two more weeks yet, full of opportunities for more games and gimmicks by the Healey campaign <em>and mistakes and missteps by me</em>. [Emphasis added] It&#8217;s not over until the polls close on November 7.&#8221;</p>
<p>We all know politicians are imperfect. At least this one admits it. Maybe that&#8217;s part of why he&#8217;s ahead by 20-something points.</p>
