Will Republicans hold majority?
Not a Chance part of George and Mitt Romney’s plan
CRUSH RINOS!!
Portman is a Republican from Ohio.
He was at the fancy ball with the GOPe off the island of Georgia this week.
Ted Strickland, ex Governor and old ass man is running against him on the Democrat side.
Scott Rupert is running as an Independent.
Earlier this week Public Policy Polling surveys found that Pat Toomey and Rob Portman were endangering their reelection chances with their opposition to even considering a replacement for Antonin Scalia on the Supreme Court. Now you can add Kelly Ayotte and Ron Johnson to that list. New polls in New Hampshire and Wisconsin find strong support for filling the seat this year, and that Ayotte and Johnson’s already dodgy reelection prospects could become even more perilous because of their opposition.Key findings from the survey include:
-Johnson and Ayotte are already both in trouble this fall because of their weak approval numbers. Johnson has just a 33% approval rating, with 50% of voters disapproving of him. Ayotte isn’t doing much better, with 42% of voters giving her good marks and 48% bad ones. Johnson and Ayotte also have to deal with the overall damaging brand of Senate Republicans as they seek second terms- Mitch McConnell is a remarkably unpopular figure with a 14/58 approval spread in both Wisconsin and New Hampshire.
rubios is up for sale. Maybe crist will run again...

Thirteen seats could possibly change party — Bennet, Kirk, and Johnson very likely.
Will Republicans hold majority?
Johnson definitely - he came in tea party favorite and sold out before he got to Washington. Running against Russ Feingold. I’m sure McCain cant wait to have his old buddy back in Washington.
Don’t forget murkowski.
Kirk rino Illinois has to go.
They were the Republicans seats to loose and they sure did a good job of increasing their chances of losing them. There should be an independent running for each of those seats.
People are so pissed, it’s likely the senate will change hands or lessen the republican majority. Hope the weasels in D.C. are proud of themselves.
Another GOP senate majority pissed away.
I remember Trent Lump with his power sharing “horsesh**.
Boy, this is a tough lineup this year.
Illinois and Wisconsin are probably gone.
New Hampshire, Florida and Pennsylvania will probably go with the presidential race in their states.
What difference does it make? Same results with either wing of the Uniparty. Supreme Court Justices - meh, Bush gave us Little Johnny Roberts. At this point, our best bet is to ignore the “law”.
Oh, I’ll vote; but I have no illusions that anything will get better. The Uniparty will fight a President Trump on everything from confirmations to legislation. A President Cruz or SWMNBN is a tool of the ruling elite. A President Sanders is the end of our freedoms. Pessimistic, but also realistic.
