After an initial post-primary bounce, Joe Sestak, now linked strongly to the Obama White House, has poll numbers dropping off rapidly. And make no mistake, his numbers are not only reflective of voter distrust of Sestak - but Obama as well, a clear indicator of passive-aggressive White Guilt sentiment...
____

Sestak has another problem: independent voters. Toomey gets 50% of them, compared to an anemic 16% for Sestak, with 24% undecided (10% want another candidate). Among unaffiliated voters, Sestak has a -29 favorability rating (25/54), so he’s unlikely to do much better as the undecideds split when the election draws near. He has room to pick up Democrats, but that’s also a measure of his weakness. He currently only get 65% of his own party (Toomey gets 77% of Republicans), which could be a harbinger of a light Democratic turnout in the general election thanks to a lack of enthusiasm for their candidate.

Hot Air Rasmussen: Toomey takes seven-point lead over Sestak
 
It most certainly did not help him when he changed his story from "a high ranking administration member offering a high ranking WH position" to " a non administration member offering a low "advisory board" positon"

Only an idiot or a partisan sheep would not have seen right through that one.
 
Note to Democrat candidates - IF you are running for reelection in a state or district that is anything less than flaming liberal (san fran, NYC, etc..) , don't get any of the Obama STINK on you ........ He's is on a roll - everyone he supports loses.

And that is indeed what is happening - the distancing from Obama is significant.

And rightfully so - Obama is becoming toxic.

Every candidate Obama has supported with personal appearances in a tight race has lost. He is the kiss of death. His vaunted personal appeal looks to have been covered with an oil slick.
 
We'll see what happens in November and you redneck teabaggers better man up and get your big ole butts over here to take your whippings.

We've been hearing every election cycle since 2004 that you all are going to win big.

We'll see.

Rasmussen says... :lol:

You've been hearing voices in your head if you heard that.
November is going to be very ugly for Democrats. It will be ugly for Republican incumbents as well unless they've distinguished themselves from the RINO faction.

Note to idiots like Slander and Rabid Lies..........

Obama supported SPECTOR, not Sestak.

Please try to focus your outrage on the correct people please. Obama asked Sestak to NOT run.

At what point do you plan on joining reality?



Do you seriously think the Democratics are excited about their prospects this November?

You must really buy into the Hopey-Changey shit...:lol:

Too many grease gun enemas addle your brain, moron?
Sestak is teh Democratic Party nominee. Of course Obama is going to support him now. Spector is out of the race, unless he wants to run as an independent.
Sheesh. Quit hanging out in the truck stops and read a paper.
 
Obama supported Spector and Spector lost. You guys are telling everyone that if Obama supports you, you're gonna lose.

Obama didn't support Sestak, he supported Spector.

And, based on how Blanche Lincoln did, Obama doesn't necessarily support all democrats.

Get a clue Rabid Lies. Tell ya what.......you think that the Dems are gonna get slaughtered in November........I'll make you a bet.

If there are more Dems elected than Reps, you will pay me 1 pos rep/week for a year.

Put up or shut up pussy.
 
It appears as if the democratic leadership was correct. He won't be able to win in a PA general election.
 
November is still a ways away (5 months to be exact), and the political memory of the American people is around 3 months (that's why the heavy campaigning starts 6 months prior and keeps ramping up until elections).

With the way the GOP has been acting, I'm betting that they're gonna lose their asses this year.
