Rick Santorum, comeback kid?
Who was polled for this survey? All Maine residents?
Snowe is number one......we're doomed.....
Since they couldn't figure out that Bush beat Gore and Kerry based on exit polls, I don't know what credence we'd give to these worthless polls.
If Frist is still contemplating running for POTUS, he might want to reconsider...huh?
I STILL want to know who was surveyed...
I don't f***ing understand how Obama is so high. He hasn't done sh*t!!!!
Sorry for swearing, but I can't stand this man. One of the MANY reasons I want to leave Illinois, cuz he ain't going no where. He's so popular he will end up beig another Kennedy, Lord help the People's Republic of Illinois!!!
A very cursory glance makes it look to me that the RINOs and Dems have good solid approval numbers (better than 60 percent). That seems to confirm something I've long suspected: People in Dem and Rhino states aren't paying attention to what's going on. They give high approval numbers because they don't care.
You're right, this strains the bounds of believability. Every top senator is a RINO or hard core leftist.......
Click on the senator's name for a description of the poll and demographics.
...or they have been brainwashed by the incessant spew constantly fed them by our insidious leftist media.
It's a phony poll by liberal TV stations. I try not to watch those stations...so they didn't get my opinion of how senators in my area are doing, which is lousy!
What is going on with Conrad Burns?
Top 4 are R's in a Blue State or D's in a Red State.
Oh hell. A second cursory look tells me that nearly every R senator is a RINO.
And Durbin's little sidekick Obama at 69%? Hard to believe.
Isn't he caught up in the whole Abramof fiasco in some way?
Oh...thanks..will do.
