4 New Polls Show Incumbent Dem Senator Leading GOPer In Arkansas
Talking Points Memo ^ | April 15, 2014 | Daniel Strauss

Posted on 04/16/2014 3:22:36 PM PDT by Clintonfatigued

Four straight polls of the Arkansas Senate race have found Sen. Mark Pryor (D-AR) leading challenger Rep. Tom Cotton (R-AR).

Although some of the polls are from Democratic-leaning groups and each of the polls find him with a razor-thin lead, the fact that a rough handful of surveys found Pryor in the lead is notable given that Pryor is considered one of the most endangered Democrats in the 2014 election cycle.

The worst polls are from ‘Rat-supporting groups, but Tom Cotton recently called for five debates. That indicates that the race isn’t in the bag yet. I personally rate it a tossup, perhaps a very slight Republican edge. Pryor and his allies have gone on the attack and it’s having an effect.

Just keep telling yourself that, TPM. Cotton’s still getting his name out and has six more months to do it — while Pryor keeps burying himself by admitting he’d STILL vote for Obamacare.

Oh, it won’t be a landslide, but my prediction is Cotton by 7 in November.

Alex Sink is a sure win from her poll numbers.

Clinton supporters, EBT freeloaders, illegals, Obummer cult members , and dead voters are hard to beat. Dems fight dirty and win at all costs. They have no real morals and no ethics so it’s no problem for them. Wish it were otherwise but it’s like Dart Vader and the forces of darkness are spreading over the land. This country is in deep kimshea..

I hope not. I’d rather NOT have McCain’s endorsement — particularly so because McCain, to me and most conservatives, means “loser” and “AMNESTYbanana,” while Cotton is anti-amnesty and a winner.

Of course, Cotton has to “play ball” and would never publicly say “no thanks, McCain.”

Tom seems to have dropped his profile in the House of late....

Is he listening to Rove & ilk in this race?

Good news — Pryor is under 50% in all of those polls.
Caution: Agree with you...Cotton asking for 5 debates indicates that their internal polls show there is work to be done...

Amazing that Pryor is still in the game...Man our country is in trouble...

According to Congressional Quarterly’s 2013 analysis, every single embattled 2014 Senate Democrat voted the Obama line at least 90 percent of the time including Sen. Suckup Mark “Obamacare’s an amazing success story” Pryor.

A hotair.com video records the dramatic Christmas Eve roll call on Obamacare, in which every single Democrat in the chamber cast the deciding vote.

That kind of lock-stepping party loyalty has not been seen since 1940's era Europe.

Kinda reminds me of Peter Sellers trying to subdue
his natural instincts to salute smartly to der leader.

Big Dem donors are being scared to death and whipped into submission, writing huge panic checks. But the reality of Obama Care, the Bundy ranch, the IRS, Lois the wicked witch Lerner, etc, is much bigger than their checkbooks.

.....that panic list gets bigger as we type......

We must never forget:

<><> lawless Holder

Fast and Furious gun-running enabling savage drug cartels' killings of US border patrol agents,

DOJ labels journo Rosen a criminal--seizes AP documents; snoops USSC/Congress' blackberries,

DOJ asserts "global Christian terror" rivals worldwide Islamic violence threats

<><> stumblebum Obama's Ukraine, Syria, Benghazi,

<><> the parasitic Obamas' non-stop luxe tax-pay vacays,

<><> NSA snooping; Snowden; govt wiretaps rose 71% last year alone, 9 million govt factotums now have top secret clearance,

<><> Solyndra and other green money-laundries

<><> sucking up to gays/perverts/predators; forces Boy Scouts to admit gays,

<><> Hillary's State Dept missing $6 billion; covers-up sex scandals; scrubs investigations,

<><> IRS steals 60 million private medical records,

<><> IRS sends $45 Million/32,000 EITC refunds to illegals at ONE address,

<><> billions to empower Planned Parnthood's abortion savagery; PPhood genital-sniffers now O'Care navigators.

SHOCKEROO the RNC joined in this week, suing the IRS on behalf of targeted conservatives..

They had her way ahead right up until election. Closing a little toward the end but still supposedly a slam-dunk for Sink, heh heh, pun intended.

I look to see this happening more and more. In order to cheat these foul dem Senators back into office, the dem crowd needs to make it look like a horse race.

I disagree, Pryor may not get gobsmacked like Blanche Lincoln was but he’s going bye bye.
