Peter King (NY-02) has drawn a challenger which is well-funded. Businessman Tim Gomes has loaned his campaign 1 Million Dollar to become King's first credible challenger in ages. Might King retire instead?

Heartily endorsed. The last thing King needs is to face a self-funding political outsider in a terrifically bad year.

BOLD PREDICTION: Flake will be forced to retire and Mcsally will run.

McSally's waiting for McCain to retire and hand her the torch.

538's generic ballot average now has D 48.6, R 35.5.  These are the highest D and lowest R percentages to date.

Doesn't this create at least some level of cognitive dissonance for olds plugged into Fox? They hear Hannity talking for hours about how Trump is doing an A+ fantastic great best job and that Democrats are incompetent, and then are shown a poll showing the apparent opposite.

I guess it feeds into the "congressional Republicans are hamstringing Trump" narrative?

I imagine that depends on how much they talk about that poll. If it's shown/talked about for collectively, maybe, 5 minutes or so over 2 days, then the amount of people who see it, let alone those who truly digest it, is not significant.

Plus, we all know how polls are treated, especially for some Trump people who spent 2016 looking at polls showing The Donald losing: fake news!

The GOP is as dysfunctional as ever. Earlier they whined about not having the ball. Now they have the ball and can't agree exactly what to do with it.
The GOP never got to truly settle its internal issues and it shows.

Some historical generic ballot data from 1994, 2010, etc. Interesting that Dems had a lead in October 1994.

IIRC, Hottinger is very conservative. So - relatively good news.
