Is Chuck Schumer In Trouble? (Lets Hope So)

The Lid/Marist Poll ^ | 2/1/2010 | The Lid

Chuck Schumer is an embarrassment, every time he starts to open there is an involuntary gag reflex. The man does not care about the United States he is 100% partisan. If Elijah the Prophet showed up to announce the coming of the Messiah today (Please God), Schumer would ask Elijah if he was a Democrat or a Republican. And party is only Schumer's second priority his first priority is Chuck Schumer.

New Yorkers may be growing tired of the Schumer act. Rather than listen to the will of the people of NY, Schumer the most hack of political hacks has forgotten who put him in office. Schumer knows that Harry Reid is in trouble, and wants his job. In his quest to replace Reid after his likely loss in Nevada this November, Schumer has abandoned the interests of his state.

New Yorkers may be liberal but they are not stupid. According to the latest Marist Poll Schumer’s once rock solid approval rating has dropped significantly

It is time the American voter woke up.

Although I’d love to see this Nazi pig tossed out on his butt, I don’t see it ever happening.

[Tzimisce]

I would LOVE to see Chuck U gone.

I just don’t think it’s going to happen.

[Ann Archy]

He’s Jewish.....he could KILL someone and the Jews would still elect him......no different than the Irish and Kennedy!

[Freddd]

I think it IS going to happen.

I will be donating to help it happen.

[Steelfish]

Agree 100%. Pataki should do the patriotic thing and challenge him.

Those that say he’s doing a good job should be asked ‘what has he done for NY’. I bet they couldn’t answer!

[Mr_Moonlight]

The only problem with all this is that the NYS GOP is so ineffective, cowering within their own sewer of incompetence, that it can't even raise a credible candidate to challenge Schmuckie's easily beatable sock-puppet, Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand, much less the Schmuckster himself ...

But I agree ... Schmuckie Schumer needs a good smackdown or two, the man is a legend in his own mind and needs to be taken down a notch or two with a decent challenge. He'll win of course, but maybe a bit bloodied for once

May Kudlow give ChuckieBoy a BrownOut.

[fightinJAG]

Exactly!

To all tweeters, tweet Kudlow v. Schumer and let’s get this going!

We have two Senators and a Governor up for re-election this year and no one forcefully stepping forward to say, yeah, I'm running.

Peter King has taken himself out of the race because he believes that the GOP will take the House this year and that will give him some seniority.

I've heard names tossed around by other people -- Pataki, Lazio -- but I haven't heard much of or from them.

[circumbendibus]

Pataki, Lazio

I saw Lazio on TV (Cavuto on Fox News I think). He's definitely running against Gillibrand.

We need Pataki or Kudlow to take on Schumer.

Lazio is taking on Paterson for Governor.

Ford will take on Gillibrand in a primary; this is necessary to give Cuomo cover (against the race card which Dumocrats LOVE to play) to go after Paterson in a primary. It could be a very interesting year in NY politics. Schumer’s vaunted war chest could take a serious hit if he has to finance 5 campaigns (1 for him, 2 for Gillibrand and 2 for Paterson).
