It should be obvious to anyone why he actually had a "change of heart" and decided to run for re-election after all.
The same is true of the pathetic Evan Bayh, though.
I don't hype up Bayh as some saint, though. I'm not a big fan of his, I just happen to be (somewhat) ideologically closer to him than Young.
Pretty much this. Both Rubio and Bayh are hacks, although Rubio is on my team and I really like Todd Young. I also think split tickets will increase a lot this year although obviously not as much as this poll shows.
Only insofar as the act of running for office under a party banner makes you a hack for that party.
Obviously, Flawless Beautiful Marco will win by more than 20, even if Trump gets crushed in Florida! (But I'm going to ignore the presidential poll, since its results aren't as much to my liking and don't line up with my view of reality) Split ticketing hasn't gone down at all, so I wouldn't be surprised if Kirk, Toomey, Ayotte, and Heck also win by more than 20, even if Trump loses all of those states by double digits. A Republican landslide in the Senate and House is still possible even if Hillary wins in a landslide!
Why don't you unskew some more polls for us?
