OK, from the git-go, this has been perceived as a "given" for a GOP pick up this year. Mike Rounds (R) is not doing well. He's polling 35%. It's time for the GOP to get some money and some "star-power" (Cruz...Palin) into South Dakota to help Mike Rounds, and they need to do it NOW!

Pressler is more liberal than the Dem candidate and will caucus with the Dems if he wins. If we lose this seat..... Holy crap!

Pressler is a moron. His most noteworthy achievement was accidentally walking into a closet during a Senate committee hearing and staying there for several minutes before coming back out because he didn’t want anyone around to know he’d done something so stupid. When he walked out, everyone in the room just stared at him.

Just what the Senate needs. Another 70+ year old dinosaur making rules for everyone else.

Inconsistent polling here.

Survey USA has Rounds at 35%, Pressler at 32% (way more than any other poll shows for Pressler) and the rat Weiland at 28%.

Yougov has Rounds at 42%, the rat at 27% and Pressler at just 12%.

Nielson Brothers has Rounds at 39%, the rat at 26% and Pressler at 24%.

I’d say good thing no one made Weiland drop out for Pressler. Weiland (a Dasshole liberal who I would be very loathe to say is to Pressler’s right) is not a desultory candidate like the rat Senate nominee in KS and rat gubernatorial nominee in AK.

Pressler BTW refuses to confirm or deny that he walked into a closet by mistake and hid there, meaning he did.

Its Rounds’ fault. He has literally done zero campaigning. Pulling a Tommy Thompson and thinks it will just fall into his lap
