Pence up over Bayh in first Rasmussen poll
Hot Air ^ | January 23, 2010 | ED MORRISSEY

Gallup reports today that Barack Obama has polarized the nation more than any other first-year President, with partisan gaps on approval ratings wider than anyone since Gallup started polling. Bill Clinton held the record before now, but Obama bested him by 12 points:

The 65 percentage-point gap between Democrats’ (88%) and Republicans’ (23%) average job approval ratings for Barack Obama is easily the largest for any president in his first year in office, greatly exceeding the prior high of 52 points for Bill Clinton.

House Republicans had the chance to hold onto Pence by ousting Boehner from the leadership and replacing him with Pence.
But they lacked the courage, so it's now time for Mike Pence to move on to bigger and better things!

The link points to a hotair article on Obama’s polarization. There is no mention of Pence.

Well,then by all means Indiana should keep the proabortion, socialist surrender monkey we have in the Senate now. By golly, that will show everybody.

I’m a conservative. I don’t compromise that - even if an Amnesty-for-20-million illegal aliens-politician is pro-life. He’s still for Amnesty.

“pro-Amnesty Pence”

I will take a pro amnesty Pence over the liberal democrat (who pretends to be conservative) any day of the week. We have to have someone who can WIN against him.

“He’s still for Amnesty.”

Bingo!

Amnesty will have an impact at county levels, even at current numbers before the stampede.
In any event, it appears Conservatives/Republicans will have to continue to compromise in a number of upcoming elections.
At least until such time as they decide that letting someone else choose their candidates is not a good idea and they become more involved a the local primary level.

Pence made his attempt to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory during the amnesty debate of 2006. Do you know if he's taken any different position on amnesty since, or is he just one of those who supports amnesty year-after-year?
