Too good to check: Warren in trouble in 2018?
Hot Air ^ | January 23,2017 | Ed Morrissey

The Left keeps insisting that unvarnished progressivism holds the key to future Democratic Party success. A new poll from WBUR suggests it might not even be the future of Democratic success in Massachusetts. Only 44 percent think Elizabeth Warren should win another term in the Senate, while slightly more say they’ve seen enough:

Over four years in office, Elizabeth Warren has staked her claim as the Senate’s liberal lion. And many Massachusetts voters like it — 51 percent view her favorably.

But according to a new WBUR poll, only 44 percent think Warren “deserves reelection.” Forty-six percent think voters ought to “give someone else a chance.”

“No one’s going to look at a 44 percent reelect number and think that that’s a good number,” said Steve Koczela, president of The MassINC Polling Group, which conducts surveys for WBUR. “No one’s going to look at it being close to even between ‘reelect’ and ‘give someone else a chance’ and think that that’s reassuring.”

How did it get this bad? WBUR’s analysis shows that Baker gets broad support across the political spectrum. Even among Democrats, Baker wins a solid +12 plurality for seeking a second term, 48/36, and 50/26 among independents. Warren, on the other hand, gets a 5/92 from Republicans and a 40/46 among independents — and a surprisingly weak 61/32 from Democrats. Talk about a lack of reassurance!

It’s time for Elizabeth to gather her little tribe and have a pow wow.

I suggest she double-down and push her anti-American agenda a lot harder.

Yup. It's not like we are going to get the second coming of Jesse Helms out of Massachusetts, though if Curt Schilling wants to take a flyer, I'm all for it.

All she does is rant. She questioned Trump nominee, Betsy DeVOS about her experience of running a bank, billion dollar budgets, etc. in the most condescending manner imaginable.

She may be in trouble, but remember that 46% of the people in Massghanistan wanting someone other than Lie-a-watha as Senators does not mean that the other 54% will not vote for her. It also does not mean that those in the 54% who want someone else do no prefer someone between War-Hen and Stalin on the political spectrum.

The other day there was an underreported story about Caroline Kennedy returning to the USA after “strengthening” US-Japan relations. One must ask oneself if a Senator Caroline would be an improvement over a Senator Dances-with-Fractions.

Here Elizabeth is with sen. Patty Murray. Patty was a middle school p.e. teacher before getting into politics. Her education was in physical education. When the democrats had control of the senate, they made Patty chairman of the Senate Budget Committee. I don't recall Elizabeth questioning Murray's experience. What a freakin' hypocrite.
