| Chris Dodd Is Getting His Butt Kicked In Latest PollIt's a year away from election day and a lot can happen so don't get cocky but do take a moment to enjoy this. Former Connecticut Congressman Rob Simmons has an early lead in the Republican primary race for the 2010 U.S. Senate contest and runs better than any other challenger against Sen. Christopher Dodd, topping the Democratic incumbent 49 - 38 percent, according to a Quinnipiac University poll released today. Former World Wrestling Entertainment executive Linda McMahon gets 43 percent to Sen. Dodd's 41 percent, the independent Quinnipiac (KWIN-uh-pe-ack) University poll finds. ..."After inching up in the polls for months, Sen. Christopher Dodd is sliding back down again on job approval. He continues to struggle with independent voters as 60 percent disapprove of the way he is handling his job. President Barack Obama is still popular with independents, but voters say that his support of Dodd won't affect their Senate vote," said Quinnipiac University Poll Director Douglas Schwartz, PhD. "Healthcare is an issue that should work for Sen. Dodd. Voters who tell us it's the most important issue side with him. But voters who care most about the economy say the Republican candidate will be better able to deal with it. If the economy worsens, this will hurt Dodd."Please don't tell me how Simmons is a RINO, I get it, I really do. Here's the thing...it's Connecticut. It's one of the bluest of the blue states. Having anyone from there with an R after their name is flat out thievery. If the only thing he does that I like is help to make Mitch McConnell Majority Leader, I'm happy. Connecticut voters are, wait for it, liberals. They haven't accidentally been voting for the Chris Dodd, Joe Liebermann (yeah, he's a liberal 90% of the time) and Lowell Wickers of the world by accident. It's what they want. If we can give them a slightly less liberal Republican who will make Tom Coburn and Jeff Sessions committee chairs, sign me up. Keep this in mind...it's Chris Dodd. I don't so much care who wins that seat as I do that this pompous, Friend of Angelo, fool is tossed out on his ass. I'd even be happy if he got booted in a primary. The big question in this race is...Will LauraW hold her nose and endorse Simmons? The Nutmeg state holds its collective breath in anticipation! And now that I've pissed a lot of you off, allow me to offer this as a second gift. Another Quinnipiac poll shows Obama and Democrats dropping like stones in...Ohio. For the first time, Republican Rob Portman is inching ahead of the two Democrats in the 2010 race for Ohio’s U.S. Senate seat, according to a Quinnipiac University poll released today. Also for the first time, Ohio voters disapprove 50 – 45 percent of the job President Barack Obama is doing, down from his 53 – 42 percent approval September 16 and 49 – 44 percent approval July 7.Ohio is more or less the prototypical bellwether state. If these trends hold (and that's a Gigantic if), next year is going to be very, very interesting. The Connecticut poll story was via Major Garrett's Twitter feed. Comments1

Dodd also needs to go for his blatant corruption (Countrywide, if I remember correctly) and for his role in facilitating the housing crisis. I'd love for Barney Frank to go too, but it'll never happen because of the Massholes. Posted by: Kratos (on the back of Gaia, scaling Mt Olympus) at November 12, 2009 10:20 AM (9hSKh) 3

While I understand where you're coming from, please remember Sun Tzu's dictum that there are some cities that must not be taken. We have seen how Democrats prize Republican votes in the House and Senate. The lack of a handful of votes to provide the fig leaf of bipartisanship has stopped what should have been a liberal juggernaut in the legislature. So sure, if we get a RINO Republican elected in Connecticut, we get one step closer to a majority. However, the vote that was once cast by Dodd will have far more meaning, power, and importance for Dems trying to get their agenda enacted.
Today, more than ever, it is important that the Republican party be ideologically solid so that the Democrats find no cover for what they are doing. If that means we give up a seat in a blue state, so be it. Posted by: WikiEditor at November 12, 2009 10:25 AM (DqMug) 9
And now that I've pissed a lot of you off, allow me to offer this as a second gift. Drew, supporting a moderate Republican doesn't piss me off, its that you are stealing my material. Please note this from the Morning Headline Thread:
Good News time - latest polls for 2010. In Ohio, Rob Portman leads both major Democratic contenders. In Connecticut, Simmons (R) leads Dodd by 11. By 11. Both polls are Quinnipac (not that evil, right wing poll Rassmussen).

So far, all the credit for the Republicans' rise in popularity goes to... the Democrats. Barney Frank, Chris Dodd, and the dead Ted Kennedy, Nancy Pelosi, and Barack Obama have done more to help the Republicans in 2010 than Michael Steele.

Longtime lurker - and CT resident. CT isn't as true-blue as it used to be. There are pockets of conservatism that are growing everyday. In my small town we recently elected a full Republican ticket in the recent town elections. Same thing happened in a neighboring town. It happened all over the state. That's how it starts. We have a Republican Governor, though Jodi Rell announced her plans to retire after her current term is over. Given the state of things with Dodd - and the fact that Obama's coattails have gotten very short in the past few months - it's possible that not only will CT keep a Republican in the Governor's chair but we may pick up a Republican Senator in 2010 as well. I find conservatives around me nearly everyday lately. People are fed up and maybe are finally realizing that the Democrats have been in control of the Federal government since 2006...and they don't like what has happened in that time. This is how revolts get started.... Posted by: Kris, in New England at November 12, 2009 10:27 AM (UYmdr) 14
Simmons can be a moderate republican as long as he is fiscally conservative and pro private enterprise- thats the only litmus test for 2010. Frankly thats why losing NY-23 was worth it. DIABLO's like Dede are not welcome going forward. Obamas has helped unify the GOP in terms of facing a common threat- his administration. Posted by: jjshaka at November 12, 2009 10:28 AM (Yozzz) 15

I agree with you 100% here. The country didn't just snap one day and decide to embrace totalitarian ideologies. It was a gradual process that has brought us to our current level of insanity. It will be a gradual process to move us back to a more reasonable state, particularly in states like Connecticut. There are rinos (McCain) and then there are RINOs (Dede) and the difference between them, and the ability to discriminate between the two types is critical in this effort. Some Republicans may feel the need to hold their noses as they vote, but it is better than the alternative.
One thing to focus on is that in a no bs political pandering way: The fight isn't between Democrats and Republicans, it's between Socialism and Republicanism. Think of rinos as the methadone treatment for the socialist addiction. Posted by: Lazarus at November 12, 2009 10:28 AM (ycArd) 18
I would say go for the staunchest conservative in the primary. Wasn't that the strategy the "pragmatists" advocated? Dodd is odious and this is a good chance. Don't go squishy until you have to. If Simmons is the nominee, fine then. Hold your nose and vote for him in the general election.

DIABLO's like Dede are not welcome going forward. Slightly O/T - Did anyone catch Dede on Madcow's show last night. Got about 2 minutes in and finally had to turn head for fear of projectial vomit on new carpet. Long and short, she was, according to her, "shoved aside" by the evil right wing extremist in the party. And if we don't follow her path of moderation we are the party "of the minority" forever. She doesn't get it that if a primary was held, she would have lost. When a blabbering idiot like Mark Helprin, editor of Time magazine, understands that it is better for Republicans to have a Bill Owens hold the seat for one year and then elect a more conservative Republican, than allow a Dede to be there for 20, she must really be clueless.

First, how RINO? Not that it matters, I agree with Ace that this is an Anybody But Dodd situation. Not only is it because CT is blue, it's because Dodd is such a slime and getting him out is good for the republic.
Is he a Scozzafava DIABLO? A Snowe/Collins RINO? A Lindsay Graham RINOhMy!? A Lamar Alexander squish? Second, what's going on here is beautiful. Obama is personally somewhat popular (Gallup steadfastly refuses to let his approval go below the magic 50% mark.) but everything he does is wildly unpopular. So while the Dems look to his number, they are going to get the blame for all of his terrible programs. Posted by: AmishDude at November 12, 2009 10:34 AM (wrEuu) 33

There are several blue states that may actually produce Republicans. In addition to Connecticut, in Deleware, Mike Castle is leading Beau (Son of Sheriff Joe) Biden. In Illinois, Congressman Mike Kirk is either ahead or tied with his leading Democratic contenders. Now mind you, it appears Blago is goingon trial in the fall of 2010, so that may help Kirk. Adding those to Connecticut, you have 3 potential R pick-ups in Blue States. Ayotte leads in New Hampshire, so there is a chance Republicans can retain the seat in New Hampshire. Portman may pull it out in Ohio and Blunt may hold on in Missiouri. Add that to the 4 Democrats in the most trouble (Bennett in Colorado, Lincoln in Akransas, Reid in Neveda and Spector in Penn.) and you can see a net Republican pick-up of 7 if all goes well. That would make the Senate 53 Democrats, 47 Republicans. Considering Joe Liebermann is a wild card and Harry Bryd has health issues and you can see where post 2010 it gets very difficult for "the One" to get things through.

IMHO, Simmons should definitely get the endorsement for Senator and Linda McMahon should probably run for Connecticut's 4th District seat, which belonged to Chris Shays until the 2008 election, instead of the Senate seat.
McMahon may be a decent candidate in that she's self-funding due to having the coffers of the WWE at her disposal and has name recognition, but she'll be polarizing because her husband Vince and her company are habitually controversial. I don't want that to undercut the possibility of removing Dodd from DC since he's such a constant danger to the economy. Simmons can get a pass on RINO tendencies as long as he's willing to play ball with the caucus and not go out of his way to stick a thumb in the eye of conservatives and the party base like Specter did. A lot of the RINO-hunting is based in how a particular politician has angered the base and the composition of the state or district that sent them. Graham and McCain garner more outrage than the Maine Sisters for the most part because Maine is deep blue while South Carolina and Arizona are very red states and should be able to support true conservative Senators rather than a pair of media whores who regularly make names for themselves by undercutting the base.

As long as it doesn't mean we get Rob Simmons as a committee chair.

Wondered over to Simmons website just to take a look at the candidate (admit, I know very little about his past record). One good sign, on the front page of the web site he has a debt clock showing the over all national debt. Opposes bailouts and the stimulus. So, prob. safe to say the guy at least talks like a fiscal conservative. Now, we all know crap changes once elected, but it is a lot more promising that Chris Dodd.

While I'd prefer 100 hardcore fiscal conservatives in the Senate, as long as the Republican is chosen in a primary I can live with a RINO from a blue state. If they start looking DIABLO, though, we should try and find a challenger for them in the primary and the RNC should stay the <expletive deleted by author> out of it until the general election.

This is great news. AS a CT resident I can tell you it's past time for Dodd to go.
Everyone feels that way. Dems will vote for him but nobody is enthused about it. As far as Simmons though I think he tops out simply because of name recognition. I don't think he will be a very good general election candidate. People want some outsiders and Simmons is a very big insider. His name is played from all those close races for the House. McMahon has got close to what he has with only a single radio blitz. People are settling on Simmons now but want someone else, it's not really his politics. In the end it doesn't matter though. Rell is going to run against Dodd. I just know it somehow. Not really that excited about Rell either but if she announces she will beat Dodd in a walk. Schiff is going nowhere, he's a Paulnut.

I agree with Ace that this is an Anybody But Dodd situation. The refusal to think this way is one of things that gets us into trouble. How many people voted for Obama because he was not McCain? Or Palin? Or Romney? Or didn't vote at all for the same reason? I would have voted for Hillary in a heartbeat if it'd been between her and Obama. There really is a lesser of two evils.

@40
I'm with you on the squish factor, but there are two sides to that coin, as we've seen recently. Party affiliation can be used to squish back, as the health-care debate has so recently illustrated. Pols then have the choice to respond (Maine), leave the party (Pennsylvania), or face ruin (NY-23). I would, at the end of the day, rather have a Pol that is nominally more influenced by conservative criticism, than the socialist sort. There are always going to be disputes, but changing the base line of argumentation is what the left did so well to stick us in the mess we're in now, and what the right needs to do to effect a lasting ideological victory that out lives the passions of any given election cycle. There will be embarrassing drunken uncles at the party, but they are part of the long term solution, as annoying as it is right now. Posted by: Lazarus at November 12, 2009 11:06 AM (ycArd) 98
As long as it doesn't mean we get Rob Simmons as a committee chair. Not that I know anything about this particular fellow, I just mean your argument falls apart when the RINOs get any actual authority, which being Senators, they curiously think they're entitled to.
As long as it gives Republicans the majority, it removes Dems from all the committee chairs. It would be ball dipping goodness, I tell ya! And even if a RINO gets a chair,there are other committees that will get some true conservatives. And that is a definite improvement. Q: If Dodd loses, but the Dems maintain the majority, who do you all think would get the Banking Committee chair? Posted by: Che Pizza at November 12, 2009 11:09 AM (SPSOE) 99
Why would the post piss us off? We just don't want the geniuses at the RNC making a defacto decision, primary winner gets the support. Its all about control of the committees, if the repubs have that, a squishy from the northeast won't get to make the squishy vote anyway.

I said on the day after that it could go back, especially with an entire county that had not been counted because they went to paper ballots after the machines broke.
The paper ballots would not be counted until the absentee ballots are counted. Hoffman conceded too soon. The Dem never would have done that in a race unless he was losing by more than 10% or 10,000 votes. They figure they can steal anything less than that.

Better a RINO than a full-blown Commiecrat. I will back the most true blue Republican in the primary, but if the RINO happens to win it, okay, I will vote for him/her. For example, of the two GOP candidates I know trying to unseat the Soviet Slut Commiecrat Cunt Bolshevik Bitch Barbara Boxer, Chuck DeVore is true GOP and Carly Fiornia is a relatively empty skirt. But if Fiorina wins the primary, she will get my support. What people don't understand about NY-23 is that there was no real primary, just party elites trying to shove an excremental candidate down the throats of the rank and file.

Even if Simmons is a RINO, understand that in addition to committee chairs, the majority party gets investigation and subpoena power.

#83: Hasn't the NY Secretary of State certified that Owens is the winner-
thus officially ending the election? Is that certification conditional?
The answer is in the article: "Conklin said the state sent a letter to the House Clerk last week explaining that no winner had been determined in the 23rd District, and therefore the state had not certified the election. But the letter noted that Owens still led by about 3,000 votes, and that the special election was not contested -- two factors that legally allowed House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to swear in Owens on Friday."

Get a load of Dodd's latest attempt at saving his hide with 3 more government agencies designed bilk joe citizen and "regulate" the financial sector?? Yeah - saw his 1000 page boondoggle being discussed last night on Fox. Creates a new agency to regulate lending to consumers to make sure that the consumer does not get ripped off. Translation- make sure we make even more unsecured self-verified loans to people who can not afford the loans. Only this time, there is no collateral to secure the loan. In otherwords, make sure that Banks take heavy losses for consumer loans with no chance at recouping the principal and no chance to earn any decent rate of return with an actual connection to the financial risk being taken. \In other words, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac for unsecured loans so finacially illeterate people can take vacations and buy a big screen t.v.

A word about Rob Simmons, from one who's familiar with his record: definitely not a RINO in the Scozzafava sense. A solid fiscal conservative & social moderate, he's pretty much the slightly nerdier ex-Army/ex-CIA spook version of Rudy Giuliani (a lot nicer in person, too). Were it not for the colossal cockups of the 2nd Bush term, neither he nor Shays nor Nancy Johnson would be out of a job in the first place. He lost reelection in 2006 by a margin of EIGHTY-THREE VOTES...talk about a ballbuster.
Lifetime ACU rating is 53.3, but he loses almost all his points on predictably blue-state social issues like abortion, not on fiscal ones. He was always the most conservative of CT's three GOP representatives (Shays, Johnson, Simmons). He is without a doubt our best candidate for Senate: well-liked, well-known, socially moderate enough for his state, fiscally conservative enough for the base.

I live here in CT. Rob Simmons is not quite a RINO. Yeah he's not Pro-Life, but he is pro-business, believes in less gov't, less taxes, is pro-gun (worked for CIA and is a veteran) and recently changed his stance on cap and trade (he's now against it). I know we're part of New England, but Simmons is no Lincoln Chafee. Simmons deserves national support. IMHO. JoeRiverside Posted by: JoeRiverside at November 12, 2009 11:25 AM (+c4JO) 136

Not only do we need them in terms of electoral calculus, they burnish our image nationally too. Just be careful and understand that so many "fiscal conservative social liberals" are full of it and not really fiscal conservatives. I live in a state that will be abortion on demand until the end of time. We can't even get a parental notification for minors law passed here, in spite of *three* rewrites of the bill to allow for minors emancipation should it be incestuous and to expunge any possible language construed as anti-abortion or religious. Should the judicial monstrosity of Roe be overturned as it should be, I can easily see entrepreneurs going to Needles or Baker or Truckee (I-10, I-15, I-80) an setting up 24 hour abortion mills on the CA state line, in partnership with bus companies. So I have to let that issue go. But I am sick and tired of "republicans" who cave in and give us Commiecrat Lite.

Sounds like the Paulnuts are prepared to aide the Dems by hurting the GOP next year.
Support Tim Grainey who is running against the Paultard in Texas, he can win with funding. Rand Paul is a Kook as well: http://tookookyforkentucky.com Posted by: jp at November 12, 2009 12:28 PM (DFDtC) 169

Do ballots in a car trunk count as absentee? They only count if they are fake.
Posted by: katya at November 12, 2009 11:14 AM (hdIwZ) Oh no, that isn't how the Democrats do it my friend. The ballots in the trunk are always real ones. Now, the ballots they ran through the machines after they put the real ones in the trunk, those are the fake ones. It is brilliant really. It is too hard to look through ALL the ballots for the fakes, and we can challenge the trunk ballots all we want since they are real. Good thing the Democrats got their math wrong in Florida...

<i>Better a RINO than a full-blown Commiecrat.</i>
Not true, which is why I didn't vote for McCain. Thanks to McCain losing, we have a socialist President, a socialist Speaker, and a socialist Senate Majority Leader, and they can't get a God-damn thing passed because most representatives are self interested and the Democrat rank-and-file know that it'll be their necks when the Pelosi-Reid-Obama agenda takes the country to hell. If McCain was President, you'd have a liberal Congress that would feel safe in not simply pushing for radical changes, but safe in voting for them. Sure, they wouldn't be as radical changes as are being proposed now, but they would take this country further in the wrong direction, and your average voter wouldn't know who to blame. Heck, with how good a job our news media is doing, most would probably believe that Republicans ran Congress, and take it out on them for the implementation of Democrat policies. In the end, the best you could say about McCain is that it wouldn't be so bad at this moment. But you might be stuck with him for an extra four years, or maybe he would get voted out in 2012 for President Hillary or Obama anyway. So, all that a vote for McCain could have done is hobbled the development of the Republican party for four or eight years. Have bad things been done under this President? Absolutely. However, there is revulsion at his practices and policies, and that revulsion is directed in the proper place. The pendulum is swinging, and because McCain was not elected, it's going to swing back hard, as long as we let it and stop trying to preemptively compromise.

I would be happy with fiscal conservatives from the NE. I wish we could kick out the Dems in NY [Schmucky Schumer ain't budging, but I could see Gillibrand getting the boot.... in the primary. Same for Paterson] but I don't see that happening. The only Repub who could win gov in NY now is Rudy, but I'm doubtful he will run.
In any case, I live in Westchester, and we got a Repub as county exec! Yay! And it really was all over money issues. We need to get more like that. I sent a note to my Rep, John Hall, to watch out for next year [I worked on the campaign last year to try to unseat him, but it was a real lopsided race... not all that hopeful for next year, either, frankly.] Posted by: meep at November 12, 2009 01:01 PM (m6Peo) 181
McMahon was put up to "bigfoot" the race with name-recognition and split the primary vote away from Schiff, not to beat Simmons. The national GOP wants a Dodd with an R, not a conservative. That's if Dodd can't win. What they want is Dodd.
Posted by: olig. at November 12, 2009 11:22 AM (/eW6V) Yeah, Schiff is a real conservative. Anti-war, pro sodomite marriage, pro abortion Paulnut who thinks all income tax should be abolished and will become a laughing stock of the Senate just as the original became the resident retard of the Congress.

Pretty funny that McMahon of the WWE is in the mix. She's gotta be smarter than Jesse Ventura. This should be good.
Linda McMahon has been in charge of the business end of the WWE for years. She's a hell of a manager. Posted by: Farmer Joe at November 12, 2009 01:35 PM (z4es9) 185
Wait till she wacks him with a steel chair. Oh, and drops a ladder on him. Do they really do that in World Wrestling Entertainment? I wouldn't know. I never watch it. (And besides, how much political baggage would Mrs. McMahon be carrying after the revelation of her husbands affair? You know, the one that produced Hornswaggle? I'm sure she could get some Hillary-type sympathy from that, but unstable marriages seem to be endemic in that family. I mean, look at Stephanie and Hunter. And with the violence within that family, Dodd could "Gillebrand" his way to another win.) Posted by: FireHorse at November 12, 2009 01:38 PM (Vl5GH) 186
Living in Connecticut... it is considered a rich state because of the Fairfield County Area. where many rich live. A lot of us are middle class and a lot are welfare people. I hear many times that there are signs down the south and in Puerto Rico telling them to come up to Connecticut for the most generous welfare. Welfare, immigrants (legal and illegal) get better treatment than the average citizen. It is a blue state because of the rich liberals, the welfare group, and some middle class people (those who are very pro-union) who still think that the democratic party is still for the helping the everyday middle class people and not the leftist party it is now. I have a very big family here, otherwise I would be out of CT in a heartbeat. Posted by: mag at November 12, 2009 01:40 PM (uBflb) 187

I think he'd call himself a libertarian Republican, not a conservative (just like Walter Williams). In any case, Schiff is used to being a laughingstock. He was thoroughly laughed at when he predicted the economic crisis we are currently facing. I'm not sure we need any more Senators who impress other Senators. We're in a slow-motion train wreck because of our current politicians. They are the unserious ones. Posted by: Scott at November 12, 2009 01:59 PM (6Cr2+) 188

I voted for and worked for Simmons here in the CT 2nd CD (and Munster before him, Munster lost by 2 votes in the election I was working on). Simmons is solid. Probably the most Consevative R that has served here in CT recently. Certainly more Conservative than Chris Shays and Nancy Johnson, both of whom I would support against their Dem opponents (though I would have to hold my nose for Shays).

Posted by: Scott at November 12, 2009 01:59 PM (6Cr2+) He's been talking about an upcoming economic collapse for 15 years, he had to be VERY unlucky not to be right. People who believe he's some kind of fiscal genious are the same ones who think Astrologists can predict the future. His real and chackable predictions, such as gold hitting 2000$ till the end of the year - have been proven false. Anyway, if he intends to be "a lonely voice of sanity" in the Senate while voting against everything and anything, it'll be a net loss for the conservative movement even in the fiscal area.

Live in CT. and don't give a crap if Simmons is a RINO, the objective here isn't to get a conservative elected so much as it is TO GET DODD THE FUCK OUT OF THE SENATE!
Getting rid of Dodd trumps everything else. If it's gotta be a RINO, it's STILL better than Mr. Countrywide, isn't it? You'll pardon us if we can't deliever EVERYTHING on the wish list, but knocking the Banking Committee Bust outta the Senate has to count for something.

Simmons is a member of the anti-conservative Republican Main Street Partnership.
