I'm surprised to see that McMahon is actually doing better than the two Republican candidates that actually are fit for office.

most people already have an opinion of McMahon, so her support numbers are much closer to her ceiling than is the case for the other candidates. McMahon has a net unfavorability rating, Shays has a net favorability, and Simmons is even.

The test of its substance is the right to differ as to things that touch the heart of the existing order."

McMahon isn't doing better than Shays.  There's a typo in the original post.  Murphy leads Shays 43%-39%, not 49%-39%.

PPP also polled hypothetical Bysiewicz and Tong races.  Both would be a disaster for Democrats.  Bysiewicz loses to Shays and Simmons and only beats McMahon by 1 point.  Tong gets beaten by all 3 - though an obvious lack of name recognition explains a lot for him.  Voters just don't like Bysiewicz - she is fairly well known and her favorables are more under water than McMahon.

I think it's important to note here that Susan Bysiewicz, despite all her faults, only trails Murphy by only 6 in the D Primary.

What's wrong with her again? Also, how do you pronounce her last name?

Let's run down her greatest hits:

In 2010, she ran for CT Attorney General despite not having the minimum qualifications for doing so -- ten years' active practice of law. She wound up getting disqualified and removed from the ballot.

The day after the 2010 election, she declared Malloy the winner of the too-close-to-call Governor's race. The AP used this information to make their official call, but all were embarrassed when the count actually showed Foley to be ahead and the call had to be pulled.

Isn't a Pixar voice actor supposed to run as a Republican?

He won't be running either. He was elected Pope a few years ago.

And you're a fucking asshole. How about you try actually contributing something to a debate at some point, or are you too busy kissing Rick Santorum's ass?

She's actually down from PPP's last poll, which only had Murphy leading 40-38.

Linda McMahon is leading Shays 60-27 in the Republican primary.

What I'm saying is that it makes no sense for people (and polling firms) to post Murphy vs. [3 Republicans] numbers as the major toplines when it's the Democratic primary race that's in doubt, not the GOP one. Except, I guess, to further a "GOP will nominate the wrong candidate" storyline.
