When are republicans going to realize that idiot republican women cost them elections ?
Palin sunk Mccain, Linda McMahon gives Connecticut to the Dems after it should have gone GOP after Chris Dodd
Blumenthal still up 20 ⦠McMahon closes but negatives power the numbers
Egads ⦠if she canât close faster then this ⦠the Republicans are in trouble, which they may be anyway. I have not gone through all of the internals, but there are two ways to look at this. First as we get closer to November, people are beginning to look a little closer at the âsuitâ. But you canât beat someone with no one and while McMahonâs Positives are way up and negatives are way down, Blumenthalâs positives are way, way up.But is that surprising since the Dems have successfully, so far, hung the âWrastlin Queenâ label around her neck. Not a nay sayer, really, and sheâs a smart business woman, and a comeback queen herself ⦠but this is an uphill battle.
Former wrestling executive Linda McMahon is inching up on Connecticut Attorney General Richard Blumenthal and now trails the Democrat 55 â 35 percent in the U.S. Senate race, according to a Quinnipiac University poll released today.
This compares to a 56 â 31 percent Blumenthal lead over McMahon in a May 27 survey by the independent Quinnipiac (KWIN-uh-pe-ack) University.
Blumenthal tops former U.S. Rep. Rob Simmons, who has suspended his bid for the GOP nomination but who remains on the ballot, by a similar 54 â 33 percent margin, and beats businessman Peter Schiff 56 â 29 percent.
But the numbers that really get me are these, McMahonâs postives and Blumenthalâs positives:
By a narrow 38 â 35 percent margin, Connecticut voters have a favorable opinion of McMahon, compared to a negative 32 â 39 percent favorability May 27.
âBlumenthal, meanwhile, still has a 73 â 22 percent job approval, the best score in Connecticut,â Dr. Schwartz added.â
