I don’t believe Ryan-O has a big lead, why, we here hate him.

You don’t believe that a sitting congressman, who was the VP nominee 4 years ago and is the speaker of the house doesn’t have a big lead in his district?

Sorry, but Ryan is not Cantor folks, as much as some here might wish ill for the guy, he’s not getting taken out in a primary challenge, he will win re-election quite comfortably.

Don’t let your excitement over Trump being the nominee turn off your frontal cortex. Ryan may not be popular here with some folks, but that doesn’t mean he’s on par with Cantor in terms of being tin eared and out of touch with the people of his district.

WI has a very well organized and battle hardened machine, the GOPe was able to mobilize it and give Trump a major defeat there. Ryan is in no risk of losing his seat because he hasn’t just jumped on the Trump Train.

National moods and money won’t take out Ryan, WI has shown through the recall elections and other things, that it is not going to just roll over to outside money and influence, and if anything is more likely to dig its heals in against it.

Ryan is safe. National mood and organization could cost him the speakership, but that’s about it, and frankly even that is a very long shot... just not as long as thinking Ryan will go down to a primary challenger.
