Thanks State Democrats for not drawing a Mississippi Delta + Pine Bluff + Little Rock district.

Had McCain or even Hillary been President right now, Democrats would probably be leading in all three of these races.

It would be one thing if Obama and Democrats were able to compensate by making big gains in other parts of the country where Obama is popular, but that's not even happening.

I'm not sure I want a majority of 2 with 3 Arkansas democrats in the House. I'd rather have a strong minority than a weak majority.

Thanks, Obama. We don't need more Joe Manchins. I'm a big supporter of Blue Dogs in conservative districts. But Blue Dogs =/= Dixies.

Sad to see that the Arkansas Dems aren't even going out with a fight.

A smarter redistricting plan could have prevented this. If they knew Ross was going to bail, they should have at least moved Pine Bluff into CD1.

These polls look like complete garbage. Come on, they don't even have the Dems breaking 30% in any of the districts. There is no way that these Dems underperform Obama and Obama isn't getting 28% of the vote in Arkansas, so this is not going to happen. Junk polls.
