Gov. Neil Abercrombie below 50% in Democrat primary in Hawaii, trails ex-Lt Gov. Duke Aiona by 8% in general election rematch. It's worth noting when they first faced each other in 2010, Abercrombie beat Aiona by a wide 17% margin (58-41%).

Would they reverse gay marriage if a Republican became elected?

Could it be because he forced homosexual marriage on the island?

Communist DemocRATS are never in “trouble”. Yeah, their polls may look bad three months out but come election day, freeloaders will repeatedly walk over broken glass to vote them as many times as they can.

How do you figure? Even states with republicans governors and majorities of Republican voters can’t stop it. If Utah can’t stop it, how can any state? I don’t see anyone out there who has a viable plan to stop it.

He’s a close bud of Zero’s. Interestingly, two former Democrat Governors have endorsed his opponent in the primary.

No. There’s virtually no Republicans in the legislature. Even if they did, we all know leftist tyrants in robes are right there to stop it.

That Aiona leads by this wide a margin is remarkable. Four years ago, he consistently trailed Abercrombie.

Ex-Lt Gov Duke Aiona (R) needs to be careful about which planes he flies in.

There were large ongoing and righteously ANGRY demonstrations last year when the Hawaii state government imposed homo marriage after the populace had repeatedly demonstrated they wanted nothing to do with it. It doesn't hurt that Duke Aiona is a good looking local boy and Neil Abercrombie is a weird looking little haole boy. We can only hope there will be a revolt in the aloha state.

With rats predicting they’ll knock off Kasich and LePage, and with Scott looking very shaky in Florida, it would be very good for us to pick off the Hawaii governorship to even the odds.

Ohio, Maine and Florida for Hawaii is not a good trade.
