Of all the Republicans up for reelection or election this year, why are only Collins and Graham and Smith NOT in trouble? Ugh. "The World Turned Upside Down."
This is similar to a Rasmussen Reports survey taken a couple of days ago. Hopefully, some conservative groups will support Conley and boost his name I.D.
This is not a great showing for Graham, considering that his opponent is unknown.
Seriously, we lose a great man like Rick Santorum and are stuck with this POS???
We can’t afford to have any one lose this year. I don’t see the ground troops out there to elect new conservative Senators in New Mexico, Virginia, Illinios, West Virginia. So we are stuck with some wishy washy Senators and we really can’t afford to lose them. We have outselves to blame. The Talk Radio, the national party, our friendly media aren’t doing much at all to help here in Virginia. They aren’t helping Steve Pearce much either in NM but he’s managed to make the race competitive. The Senatorial campaign has absolutely no vision. Ensign may be a good guy but they have planned to throw this election from the beginning. Where is the leadership? It is like if you don’t keep up in these guys faces they forget that they are supposed to lead.
Better than the alternative, I guess...
Not if Conley (a conservative ex-Republican) wins.
Electing the same; expecting a different result.
Never has happened.
Never will.
RINO Lindsey .
Get rid of him.
Crap (of both parties) rise to the top in the Senate these days.
Leadership ? What dat ? I think we had that for 5 minutes in the ‘90s. It’s extinct on the GOP side now.
