US House Redistricting: Wisconsin

[DrScholl]

Polling suggest that at least two GOP Senators, Kapanke and Hopper are in trouble if a recall makes it to the ballot, a majority favors recalling them.

[DrScholl]

I'm reading that the polling will show two GOP Senators trailing, three in toss-ups, one leaning and just two completely safe.

[DrScholl]

So did Kos poll that race, or is he assuming, like you, that all Democrats will be safe because Democrats are all that is good in the world and Rethuglicans are pure evil?

By the way, please delude yourself into thinking that all other 2008 class Wisconsin Senate Democrats are safe.  2008 was a very good year for Wisconsin Democrats.  And there are three in the 2010 class who are vulnerable, should it come to that a year from now.

They only polled the Republican seats, because that's where the action is, no need to go off about it. The Republicans haven't even organized any recall efforts at this point and seeing as Republican stock is down in Wisconsin, the chances of any Democrats being recalled are low. You can't play a big offense when a big defense is the main event.

Incorrect.  There are recall efforts on BOTH sides.

Feel free to keep spewing uniformed, "Democrats good, Rethuglicans bad" Talking Points Memo talking points, though.

Anyone can file the recall, having the organization to the get the signatures is another. It doesn't appear that there is much of an organized effort to get signatures in Democratic districts.

Ryan is headed for a Portillo Moment, no doubt about it. Duffy is still marginal, there's very little that could be done for him and his far to gaffe prone to ever be really secure.
