(Little Rock, AR) -- In Arkansas, the latest polls show a change could be in the works for the traditionally Democratic state.

Both Senator Blanche Lincoln and John Boozman hit the campaign trail Tuesday in the race for Lincoln's Senate seat.

A recent survey shows Boozman, a Republican, with a 37 point lead on incumbent Democrat Lincoln.

But Lincoln says the only poll that counts is the one in November.

The advantage Lincoln possesses in this race is money.

She still has close to $2 million in campaign funds to spend.

Boozman's war chest is reportedly just under half a million.

stuggling? In Dem bizarro world a 3 point Dem lead is a dominant lead, but a 37 point deficit is ‘struggling’.

Burnt toast that is thrown away in the trash.

The GOP is going to win 100% of every Safe GOP seat.

100% of every leaning GOP seat.

100% of every swing Seat.

50% of every leans Dem seat.

And a few of the hardened safe Dem seats, in a 100+ power shifting TSUNAMI!!!!

And we can do something about that! It's not hard for us to raise a mil for a candidate (such as Boozeman) through small, direct donations.

“A recent survey shows Boozman, a Republican, with a 37 point lead on incumbent Democrat Lincoln.”

At that rate, the Rats would be better off not running a candidate. A sitting Senator getting blown out by that type of margin?

OTOH, it furthers my thinking that there will not be elections this November.

A Democrat trailing by 37 points is “struggling” according to the State-run Media.
A Republican trailing by 2 points is being “soundly rejected by voters.”

The MSM make it seem like Lincoln has more of a fighting chance than Sharron Angle...

Notice they don’t give us numbers when Democrats are losing, just the spread.

“Struggling?”

How about dropped egg on toast?

Buh-bye, Blanche.

Additionally, 2 of the 3 House seats formerly held by Dems could change.

That would give 1 R Senator and 3 R House Representatives with 1 D Senator (Pryor) and 1 D Representative.

That would be a massive shift, as Boozman was the lone R from Arkansas since the Hutchinsons (Tim and Asa).

What a standard, moth-eaten line.

One that has been recited by LOSERS year after year.

"Trailing by a mere 37 points?"

"That's only a flesh wound!"

Expose her voting record and remind the voters, if they need reminding, that the country is bankrupt thanks to this Congress and Mullah Obama. Go door to door and expose Lincoln; she must be voted out if you want your children and grandchildren to have a future living in freedom with security..

He's been mostly supportive. Lincoln is the one who had to play both sides -- stay in the Dem's good graces and try to appear moderately conservative back home.
