Blanche Lincoln in Trouble in Arkansas

Lincoln in Trouble in Arkansas


Two new polls provide plenty of evidence that Sen. Blanche Lincoln (D-AR) is very vulnerable in her re-election campaign next year.

A Rasmussen Reports survey finds Lincoln trailing four possible Republican challengers while a DailyKos/Research 2000 poll finds Lincoln barely edging each of her possible GOP opponents and a potential primary challenger.

1. Good.
That cow needs to go down in flames.

I just hope the state party can find credible opposition to unseat her in the primary and win in the general.

2. Who's the primary challenger?
Couldn't possibly be worse, but are they actually any better?

5. That's not good

I think Charlie Cook has six or seven Democrats in more trouble than Lincoln.

If we lose Arkansas, it's almost certainly going to be a tough year. Here's hoping that Halter gets into it.

Just a thought... was it by any chance a push poll trying to sway her on healthcare?

7. I wonder what effect her stand against HCR has had on her numbers?
