Decision 2010

The Midterms campaign of 2010 is in full swing, with a restless Democratic base seeking a veto-proof majority in the House of Representatives by sweeping Republican strongholds across the nation. In the Senate, Republicans are better off in the Senate, where they seek to make minimal gains, or minimize losses. The campaign has begun.

McCain stumps for Flake, Rubio

President McCain had a rally in Pheonix and Tampa, rallying for Republican incumbent Jeff Flake and Republican candidate Marco Rubio. The rally with Flake with awkward given that he had just voted no on Merrick Garland, the President's SCOTUS nominee. But they both bashed earmarks to big cheers from the audience. McCain promoted Flake's fiscal conservative credentials, and Flake bashed Democratic obstructionism. Arizona AG Terry Goodard is facing Flake again in November, the polls show the race in a dead heat. In Tampa, Rubio faces Democrat Kendrick Meek and Independent, former Republican Charlie Crist. McCain praised Rubio's fiscal conservatism, and how he'll break gridlock and Democratic obstructionism in Washington.

Sestak Defeats Specter

In the Democratic Primary for Senate in Pennsylvania, Joe Sestak defeated Arlen Specter by 9 points. The Republican who defected after feeling alienated for the rapidly more conservative party, and fearing losing a primary to the now Republican nominee, conservative insurgent Pat Toomey. Specter failed to win over Democrats, and has lost tonight. Some say the large margin of defeat was a restless, turbocharged, angry Democratic base who now has had 9 years of a Republican in the White House.
 
Battleground States

Here's a rundown of senate races across the country.

Pennsylvania-Sestak +12
Wisconsin-Feingold +4
Nevada-Reid +16
Colorado-Bennet +8
New Hampshire-Ayotte +13
Ohio-Portman +6
Florida-Rubio +16
Indiana-Bayh +2
North Carolina-Burr +7
Montana-McCain +8
North Dakota-Hoeven +4
Missouri-Blunt +7
Arkansas-Boozman +3
California-Boxer +15

Why would Feingold run against McCain as they are close friends as they worked together to introduce and pass the McCain-Feingold campaign reform bill known as the Bipartisan Campaign Reform Act of 2002?
You understand that Lieberman endorsed McCain when he was Obam's Senate mentor

I think Romney would be more likely to win Colorado than Nevada and Hillary would poll better in WV than ND as she polled reasonably well in that state in 2008 and a Republican like McCain in the WH would cause the state to trend Dem. North Dakota on the other hand I really dont think Hillary would have a shot to win.
I agree with WV but in Colorado Hillary picked Bennet

Say You're in the Mitt Camp, how do they get to 270?
Hope for every state except  for Colorado/Nevada/Missouri to be called for Romney and only one of these states can be called for Clinton for Mitt to win.

I'm pretty confident Hillary would carry WV, AR, KY, against Romney.


Also, how far are you going to continue this for?

1. No she wouldn't, polarization is still a thing.

2. I don't know yet
1. Clinton led in Arkansas by 14 points in 2008. https://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2008/president/ar/arkansas_mccain_vs_clinton-591.html
But it's your own TL so you can do whatever you want.
