The general theme of the Never Trumpers and RINOS4Hillary is that Donald Trump will cost the GOP the Senate and major losses in the house. Apparently, that may not be entirely accurate.

A new Quinnipiac Poll on Thursday finds three incumbent Republicans in key swing states comfortably leading their Democratic challengers. <\/b><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/shocked-face.png\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-20636\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/shocked-face-300x225.png?resize=300%2C225\" alt=\"shocked-face\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/shocked-face.png?resize=300%2C225&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/shocked-face.png?w=400&amp;ssl=1 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><b>The poll shows that Sens.

Alan Grayson, another potential Democratic challenger, by 50-38 percent. <\/b><\/p>\n<p>Well, let\u2019s be honest. While I think Rubio is a fraud, compared to Alan Grayson, he is the height of integrity. Grayson is a low life dirtbag, and frankly if he wins the Democrat nomination, deserve to be crushed into paste.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">\u201c<b>Democrats made fun of Sen. Rubio when he opted for a last-minute re-election bid in Florida, but he may be on the way to the last laugh, having quickly opened double-digit leads over both Democratic challengers,\u201d said Peter, assistant director of the Quinnipiac University Poll.<\/b><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">[youtuber youtube=&#8217;http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=pQlPjUSj7no&#8217;]<\/p>\n<p>Up here in New Hampshire, we have Kelly Ayotte. She has been a complete disappointment, but compared to Jean Shaheen and her probable opponent, Governor Maggie Hassan, she is a bright light. Of course, if someone better comes along in the GOP primary, I may vote her out. In the general? I&#8217;ll hold my nose and vote for Ayotte if she&#8217;s all we have. At least Ayotte doesn\u2019t have a history of covering up child molesting. Actually, at one time, I think her job was putting those types in prison.<\/p>\n<p>In Wisconsin, Paul Ryan is in the fight for his life against a primary challenger, Paul Nehlen. Whoever wins that primary, I suspect will win the general election as well. To be honest, I think the polls on how badly Trump and the Republicans will do in November are nothing more than wishful thinking. To date, the pollsters have been pretty bad overall. We shall see what happens in November.<\/p>\n<p>Thatisall<\/p>\n<p><i><b>~The Angry Webmaster~<\/b><\/i><\/p>\n<p>[yasr_visitor_votes size=&#8221;large&#8221;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Good day all.
