Quinnipiac ils junk as always, nothing new

Encouraging numbers. I wish they polled Wisconsin t see what they would find LOL.

Not going to unskew here, but the fact that Burr leads by 6 in a poll that has Clinton up 4 and an electorate that is 64% White (in 2012 it was 71% white) is very good news for him.

Nice to see Toomey back in the lead. Still a toss-up race though.

Looks a bit Republican friendly, but I guess it does show that Hillary needs to win these states by more than a tiny margin to pull the Democrats over in these states

jesus

Likely R Ohio.

RCP moves Ohio to Leans Republican.

Strickland is done. Dems can win in AZ and IN though.

LOL, What's wrong with Strickland? He's collapsing.

Clinton is steady in VA Appalachian corridor and Toomey is outperforming Trump in Pa.

Toomey and Portman and Rubio may win. But, GOPmay still lose AZ, IN, WI, & IL falling

He's a bad candidate.

Agreed. That's why the Democratic senatorial committe suspended funding for Strickland. OH is a lost cause for Dems. Should focus on FL, NH, PA, IL, WI, IN and NC. And I'll give AZ a long shot, though unlikely as well.

Portman was never going to lose that race anyway.

You see this forum only goes gaga for corporate shill Democrats who pass themselves off as moderates. Corporate shill Republicans who pass themselves off as moderates need not apply.



This all you need to know, to understand the thought process "Bayh will definitely win, Portman will definitely lose".


Portman was always going to hang back, raise a crap ton of money and then bomb the Democrat into submission in the last half of the campaign. The man is a beast, and if the GOP had any brains he would actually have a shot at winning the nomination for President. But fortunately for the Democrats, a good kind providence always protects them from such a traumatic event.

But just like the KY gov race in 2015, GOP always comeback strong in Appalachia OH is no exception. Toomey is the perfect candidate to lose in a 272 CO, NV, Pa race.

Your posts make my head hurt.

Toomey was always gonna easier to beat than Portman, it's Pennsylvania😁
