Good News in Polls today for DEM
Congressional Polling roundup.
You know, check out The Page and you can see a pretty angry picture of Bob Dole, looks like he will pop a few blood vessels. But do you think he really is mad at Scott McClellan. Come on.
I think he really is mad at the fact his lovely wife Elizabeth Dole, is in trouble in a state where a Republican should be safe. Dole leads Democratic candidate Kay Hagan but just 2 points, 45-43. Furhter, the fact she is below 50% spells even more doom.
As the Wyoming poll showed, the Democratic candidate Gary Trauner is leading Republican Cynthia Lummis 44-41. The fact that the Democrats nearly picked this seat off in 2006 was amazing, the fact the Democrats are leading in 2008 shows the wave may be bigger than many believe.
VA Senate: Warner looking good
A new Virginia Commonwealth poll has some good news for Virginia Democrat Mark Warner, who is seeking to replace the retiring Republican John Warner in the U.S. Senate. 47% of Virginians approve of Mark Warner and only 10% do not approve of him. Those are good numbers, even for a former [and popular] state governor. Warner’s GOP opponent this fall, former governor Jim Gilmore has the approval of only 23% of Virginians, while 15% disapprove of him. Stick this race in the Strongly Lean Democratic category and keep it there until further notice.
Polling for Today (Presidential)
Research 2000 released a Wyoming poll, more specifically for the Wyoming at Large seat. But here are the presidential election numbers, no surprises. John McCain leads Barack Obama 53-40. Not a surpise. Obama stands no chance in Wyoming, he can forget it.
On a positive note for Obama, a new Survey USA poll has him up in Wisconsin 48-42 over McCain. Last poll done had Obama up 48-43 over McCain. Essentially the same.
An Obama/Edwards ticket polls the strongest given the various Survey USA matchups, such as Ohio. That is pretty consistent with other Survey USA polls, matching Edwards as Veep.
As we progress in getting everything up and running, we will have a static page for poll tracking. Obviously, Wyoming will be listed as SAFE GOP while Wisconsin will be listed as LEAN DEM.
3 Blue Dudes Arrival
Welcome to 3BlueDudes. This WordPress based address is a temporary stop as we build the blog.
Remember these guys? Let me be clear about something, at this point, we aren’t actually blue. That is not US! But 4 more years of Republican screw ups, we may very well be.
We are a political blog, and don’t be doubtful at all, we are completely Democratic slanted, period. That’s who we are. Democrats!
All three of us are active Democratic volunteers, contributors, and have worked on numerous campaigns from New York to Pennsylvania to Maryland. We’re three DEMS who work hard for DEMS. We’re three DEMS with semi-open minds.
We will provide commentary on the Presidential race, the Senate races, some House races, polls, we will likely be a clearinghouse for Bush bashing, and we’ll call out McCain when necessary.
Enjoy 3 Blue Dudes!
