2016 Congressional Primaries

[smoltchanov]

Am I alone as a Republican who is perfectly fine with Banks but who would have serious reservations about Hollingsworth if he lived in that district?

I think Hollingsworth/Yoder starts out as Leans R at best, by the way, and Yoder has a very real chance at pulling this off.

Frankly speaking - they are essentially the same for me. Everything to the right of Richard Lugar is a solid "no-no" by my standards)) Even Coats and Young are only tolerable because there is nothing better...

Yoder ran 5 points ahead of Obama in 2012, with Todd Young being a strong incumbent. Hollingsworth is a carpetbagger who moved from Tennessee last year.

The main problem for Yoder is even Richard Mourdock carried IN-09.

Stutzman is not a conservative (Young - is). He is a right-wing wacko loonie....

Stutzman is a conservative. Young is conservative but less than Stutzman. Neither are right-wing loonies. You're gonna love Banks.

I know that Indiana consistently supplies some of the best loonies to Congress...)))) Now it decided to try fanatic Banks....

Then in 2018 Rokita loses to Freedom Caucus/Ron Paul/Rand Paul/Mike Lee/Marlin Stutzman/Justin Amash/Ted Cruz backed JCL

Are you so proud to be in idiot's company?)))))

No idiots in that group.

For you. And - ultra-right zealots for me. Let's agree to disagree, respect each other views and end this discussion...

Hey, at least we got Banks last night.

[MT Treasurer]

Thank God Young won. Stutzman almost certainly would have lost to that moron Baron Hill.

[Maxwell]

Young's pretty much guaranteed, even if Trump loses Indiana.

[MyRescueKittehRocks]

Thank God Young won. Stutzman almost certainly would have lost to that moron Baron Hill.

Absolutely not. Stutzman would've destroyed Baron Hill. This seat is Safe GOP regardless.

No, he would have Akined, and lost the seat just like him.

Did you not know about the poll showing Stutzman-Hill within the margin of error, or are you simply choosing to ignore it?

No he would've Reaganed and landslid Hill. Indiana wants Tea Party Conservatives

Exactly.  There would've been a strong, fiscally conservative 3rd party candidate who would have sunk Stutzman and allows Hill to win.  Go Young!

Trey Hollingsworth is leading rn. He was the guy who had his dad donate to his super pac

Was that race polled?  What were the forecasts?  I'm kind of surprised he's ahead of the sitting AG.

How exactly did the sitting AG get third in a House primary? He must have run one sh**tty campaign.

[IceSpear]

I see JCL has learned nothing from last night.

He should've just sat out this cycle, raised money and build a campaign for the 2018 Senate Race.  Looks like his carrer is over.  Maybe Ballard will jump in.

JCL hasn't learned something from an election since ~~2005

That whole learning thing sounds pretty liberal to me.

smoltchanov, meet JCL. I don't believe you're acquainted with him.

Just like Ted Cruz as you repeatedly, unreservedly stated.

You are correct. But there is one difficulty: right now i spend almost all my time in Moscow because of family reasons. If i return - i will honestly try)))))). Though i have a cousin in Indiana)))

Mourdock hung himself on an abortion gaff. Something Stutzman wouldn't have done.
