The PPP polls border on the ludicrous (actually, well within). That the Dems lead or are that close simply doesn’t pass the smell test. Carter’s grandson leading Nathan Deal takes the cake. I’d expect in the end he wins by around 10%.

I also expect Snyder and Land to carry MI (Snyder won by 18% in ‘10, so anything below 15% would be a subpar performance — Land will be closer, but I think she’ll get in by at least 5%). Having been handed the gift of the rodents attacking a woman with cancer might make it closer to a blowout. Ultimately, I don’t think a lot of people are paying attention. The AG race poll is also ridiculous, that’s not an indication of Schuette’s “weakness”, but that the Dems don’t even know much about their own nominee. Schuette probably pulls it out with 60% and becomes the leading Republican to succeed Snyder in 2018.

Kansas is the only one I’m worried about. They’ve often flaked out with their Governors, electing RINOs and Democrats. Indeed, Brownback was the first non-liberal elected Governor since DINO Joan Finney in 1990 and last non-liberal Republican since Bill Avery’s single two-year term in 1964. Brownback will probably win, but barring a turnaround, by an unimpressive margin far below his 2010 margin.

Same with Florida, I think Scott will also win, but by a slim margin, which should drive the stake into the Orange Menace for good.

I’m also worried about Maine with its excellent Governor, Paul LePage. It’s imperative the left splits the moonbat vote, but if they decide to hedge their bets and swing hard to Michaud, they could regain the office. Frankly, I’d love to see LePage run for President. A tough-talking, non-PC, non-privileged candidate would be a breath of fresh air. This guy literally came from nothing, the kind of impoverished existence one would’ve associated with someone born in the 19th century (only spoke French, too). Our party should be promoting these kinds of working-class heroes for high office instead of garbage like Willard and Jebbie.
