Title: NH-PPP: Shaheen still ahead Post by: Lief 🗽 on October 22, 2014, 02:20:26 PM http://www.lcv.org/assets/pdf/nh-senate-poll-10-22-14.pdf
49-45 Looks like the good people of New Hampshire won't let Carpetbagger Scott take their senate seat as his consolation prize! Title: Re: NH-PPP: Shaheen still ahead Post by: New_Conservative on October 22, 2014, 02:21:18 PM We'll see in two weeks just how ahead she is.
Title: Re: NH-PPP: Shaheen still ahead Post by: Lief 🗽 on October 22, 2014, 02:22:15 PM We'll see in two weeks just how ahead she is. Probably something like 4-6 points. Title: Re: NH-PPP: Shaheen still ahead Post by: Anti Democrat Democrat Club on October 22, 2014, 02:24:00 PM We'll see in two weeks just how ahead she is. It'll be closer than I expected, but she's right on track for a W. I'd put her right about even with Kay Hagan as far as her chances go - people who for all intents and purposes should have lost, but went up against bad candidates.

But Shaheen is still the favorite to win. Title: Re: NH-PPP: Shaheen still ahead Post by: Miles on October 22, 2014, 02:25:09 PM It would be one thing if she was up by the same margin but leading 45/41. She's usually near 50%, which is why I think she holds on.
Title: Re: NH-PPP: Shaheen still ahead Post by: New_Conservative on October 22, 2014, 02:30:12 PM I don't think she loses by any means, but I think Brown is going to be really close, closer than a lot of people expect. (within 2 points), and I think he still has a chance to win.

They should have renominated Sununu, who would beat Shaheen, then Shaheen would beat Sununu again in 2020 because that's the schizophrenic NH politics the nation has come to know and love. Title: Re: NH-PPP: Shaheen still ahead Post by: Vosem on October 22, 2014, 03:39:36 PM I'd be willing to trade Georgia for this seat.

Title: Re: NH-PPP: Shaheen still ahead Post by: Vosem on October 22, 2014, 03:45:33 PM Shaheen would be toast if Republicans decided they wanted to contest this race, but they decided to nominate Scott Brown instead. Bass and Gregg are has-beens, and Guinta is damaged goods in the state's more right-wing half. Bill Binnie might be the best realistic possible candidate here, but Brown is a very skilled politician and is doing quite well -- better than, say, Mark Udall. Title: Re: NH-PPP: Shaheen still ahead Post by: Anti Democrat Democrat Club on October 22, 2014, 03:51:08 PM Shaheen would be toast if Republicans decided they wanted to contest this race, but they decided to nominate Scott Brown instead. Besides Bass or Gregg (who are out of politics anyways), Chris Sununu would have probably been their best bet. I can think of a bunch of state senators too (Jeannie Forrester and Nancy Stiles first come to mind, and of course there's Jeb Bradley), and Marilinda Garcia would have been much better off running here instead of NH-2. But coming from someone who's generally happy with the NHDP - we dodged a bullet.

I'd put her right about even with Kay Hagan as far as her chances go - people who for all intents and purposes should have lost, but went up against bad candidates. I'd say Shaheen is in a better position than Hagan. 1) NH is bluer than NC. 2) She's consistently close to 50, unlike Hagan who tends to stay around 45. 3) Unlike Hagan, Shaheen has positive approvals and favorability ratings. Title: Re: NH-PPP: Shaheen still ahead Post by: Maxwell on October 22, 2014, 05:41:41 PM Garcia or Innis could've won this, but Scott Brown's performance has been downright impressive considering he's gone from "moderate independent" to "republican hack" so quickly.

Republicans made a mistake not running one of those two and then running Scott for MA Gov. He would've been a lock against Coakley. Title: Re: NH-PPP: Shaheen still ahead Post by: Maxwell on October 22, 2014, 05:44:14 PM Jeanne Shaheen is the odd one out in these contentious races - she's still fairly popular with voters. Is the closeness just because New Hampshire is crazy?
