vitter is down 47-43. here’s he can pull an upset. morning consulting did a poll of governor approvals. brownback is the most hated at 27 percent approval. jindal is second most hated: 35-6Ø. everybody in tn loves bill halsm. his approvals at over sixty. dana perino recomends him as a veep. bruce rauner is at a 42-45 approval. pence is at a 48-41 approval.
Haslam’s “popularity” is a mile wide and an inch deep, similar to his predecessor, Pharoah Phil Bredesen. He’s a leftist twat, to be sure, and the only thing that keeps him from implementing his leftist agenda (he badly wants to expand ZeroCare) is that the GOP supermajority won’t let him (a simple majority in the legislature overrides a veto). If he were allowed to do his worst and pursue his instincts, his approvals would be in the toilet.
For the record, I never voted for him either time he ran. I voted 3rd party in 2010 and left the office blank in 2014 in order to vote for a pro-life initiative on the ballot (as we were instructed to do).
