Hello Wisconsin!
Feingold will probably cruise to any easy victory, although if memory serves me correct he's never won >55%.
Plus, with an open Governor's race, the GOP wont commit the required resources to try and beat Feingold.
@ The person who hacked the climate change emails.
THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!
We will cherish them for years.
The real interesting numbers here are Thompson's (un)favorables. I thought he was well-liked in the land of cheese and drunks.
Tommy won't run. He does this every 2-4 years to feed his ego. Besides - he's the godfather of Wisconsin's fiscal crisis, so most of us would rather see him stay retired.
Anywhere in the Midwest Obama is below what you would expect his approval to be, but again it is the huge job losses have been bigger there than anywhere. Ohio is a state where I think just about every elected official has higher dissaproval than approval.
Dems would have to really do something catastrophic like a 1929 crash to lose the Senate. The GOP would have to win 10 seats. The ones that would go would likely be CO, NV, ND(Only if Hoeven Runs) NY(Only if Guilliani runs, CT, Arkansas (If Lincoln votes against a public option) and PA. That is the a 52-47 split with Lieberman voting with the GOP.
That split would happen only if the GOP wins in Missouri, Ohio and NH. They will probably win the first two but lose in NH, since they have myself to help out with the Democratic campaign. Easier to campaign in a state of 1.2 million than it is in a state like Ohio with nearly 12 million people.
Interesting approval/disapproval for Obama in Wisc.
