At this rate, it will be an epic loss. Arkansas Senate: Boozman (R) 65%, Lincoln (D) 27% Rasmussen

AK is Alaska. Are you sure he didn’t mean that?

Don’t worry, Gallup or Pew will come out with a poll tomorrow showing Lincoln with a 5% lead over Boozman, cause you know all those other polls are biased.</sarcasm>

This is looking like the Al Greene-Jim DeMint race, that would be fun for Lincoln to have to challenge Greene for worst loser.

Considering Boozman is the only Republican representative in Congress from Arkansas

He may be joined by 3 R representatives next year. Three of the 4 House seats are leaning Republican. That would be a MASSIVE political shift for Arkansas.

A very nice poll result, but NEVER underestimate the spineless stupidity of republicans or the criminality of the left.

If this is anywhere near accurate, Lincoln will retire prior to the election rather than have those numbers in the history book.

Or be forced out by the DNC and someone else put on the ballot regardless of the law, like they did in NJ.

It is VERY rare for an incumbent to see the race “lean” this strongly against without a major scandal - Larry Craig could have done it in Idaho 2008, but chose to spend more time with his family (with total strangers?) instead of running for office. I hope Blanche has plenty to keep her busy in her new life, starting January 2011.

The more interesting point is that Blanche did nothing terribly wrong (other than being a Democrat) to get to this point, and that she’s relatively conservative as today’s Democrats go.

Yo Blanche, Obama likes that Mosque idea at GZ? Why don’t you just go ahead and jump on THAT too?

Whoa!!

Faced with a tsunami of emails and phone calls from her constituents, Lincoln "the final Democratic holdout", said she would go along with the rest of her party and then cast the deciding vote to pass the unpopular Health Care Reform Bill. Arkansan's were furious with her and vowed revenge.

I don't know why this poll comes as a surprise to anyone, including Blanche Lincoln.

Ridiculous. This should be solid Republican with these numbers.

I live in Arkansas. Most of the posters on this thread do not. I know Arkansas politics. While we may not have the corruption of Illinois or Louisiana or New Jersey, etc., ballot box stuffing will be minimal.

That said, this WILL be a tight race come election night.

And, please...don’t get derogatory with me if you’re not from Arkansas. You don’t know what you’re talking about.
