Sen. Blanch Lincoln (D-AR) In Electoral Trouble

Seems to becoming rather common for a lot of Democrats:

A new Rasmussen Reports telephone survey of likely voters in Arkansas shows Lincoln’s support for reelection at 38% or 39% no matter which of four potential Republican challengers she is matched against. In surveys last September and December, her support was between 39% and 41% in these match-ups.

In other words, if we nominate a ham sandwich, we could win this one.

That, of course, is an exaggeration. We can’t count on anything and we should go in to 2010 on the presumption that unemployment will come down a bit and no major mistakes will mar the Democrats 2010 efforts. We should fight from the assumption that we’re still far behind.

That said, 2010 is certainly shaping up to be a year the GOP can strongly bounce back from the defeats of 2006 and 2008. But we do need a strong message – in fact, we need a revolutionary message. We need to tell the American people, in a convincing way, that if we are honored with their support, we really will change things for the better.

A message of balanced budgets, low taxes, strong defense, indeed. But we also need to root out corruption, top to bottom – the people are furious at the way Reid has bribed his own caucus to pass a bill no one wants…and now, finally, I think the American people are really willing to see a lot of politicians go to jail. We need a clean sweep – and we can do it, if we convince the American people we’re serious.
