My guy Turbin Durbin is on the outs, but we can't have at him until 2008.

Rick Santorum, comeback kid?

[Txsleuth]

Who was polled for this survey? All Maine residents?

[ScreamingFist]

<>P>ME Snowe, Olympia R Sr 75% 22% 53% Track ME Sr

Snowe is number one......we're doomed.....

[MNJohnnie]

Look at how toxic Mark Dayton is in Minnesota!!!! Hope the Republican Candidate in 2006 tie him firmly to the tail of whomever the Democrats run.

[Brilliant]

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.

[metalmanx2j]

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.

[Fruit of the Spirit]

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!

[HostileTerritory]

What is going on with Conrad Burns?

[So Cal Rocket]

Top 4 are R's in a Blue State or D's in a Red State.

[Chi-townChief]

And Durbin's little sidekick Obama at 69%? Hard to believe.

[Mo1]

Rick Santorum, comeback kid?

Yep .. If Bob Casey, Jr. ever comes out of hiding and debates Rick

Casey is putz and nothing like his father

[RetroSexual]

To show how meaningless the poll is, or how uninformed the respondents are, take the example of my two loser senators, Sarbanes and Mikulski. If there's a difference between them, I'm not aware of it, yet Sarbanes comes in at #75 whiles Babs finishes #27.

Then again, maybe Mikulski did so well because of her looks?

[armymarinemom]

ME Snowe, Olympia 75%
ME Collins, Susan 74%

ARRRRRRRGGGHHHHHH

[gridlock]

Lautenberg is dead last. Lautenberg was the last-minute replacement for Toricelli, who the NJ Supremos let be substituted after the deadline in 2002. What a joke.

The only person who could have possibly lost to Lautenberg was Doug Forrester. But he's going to keep buying 'Pubbie primaries in NJ until his money runs out. And he has a lot of money...

[FerdieMurphy]

Perhaps a petition of recall will eliminate Little Dick.

[sully777]

My senators are tough-as-nails conservative and they will be re-elected, as they have been in the past. They are very popular. IRC, one of them garnered almost 70% of the vote in their last election.

BTW, you think Lautenberg will lose in liberal NJ just because he's the least popular in a flawed poll.

[mr_hammer]

Dewine and Voinovich have got to be replaced by an actual Conservatives. Enough of this RINO crap.

[the gillman@blacklagoon.com]

Nobody asked me. I approve of hanging the lot of them. Traitors and thieves all of them.

[penowa]

The last poll I saw on Santorum (not Rasmussen they talked about the other day, Quinnipiac?) he was polling something like 20 pts behind Casey, but when asked if they thought he had done a good job, something like 67% answered yes! The problem with the conservative Democrats who have voted twice for Santorum is they "love" Casey and these are people from his area of the state.

[Recovering_Democrat]

This chart, if accurate, is a perfect reflection as to why Senators are almost always re-elected.
