Dodd And Obamacare In Trouble In Connecticut
Quinnipiac Poll Not favorable To Dodd Or Obamacare
The latest Quinnipiac poll of Connecticut voters is out. It shows bad news for Chris Dodd, good news for his strongest challenger, Rob Simmons. Elitist progressive Barack Hussein Obama’s Obamacare socialized health care plan is in trouble too.
Former Connecticut Congressman Rob Simmons has an early lead in the Republican primary race for the 2010 U.S. Senate seat. Simmons runs better than any other challenger against elitist progressive Chris Dodd, topping the Democratic incumbent 49% to 38%.
Connecticut voters disapprove 54% to 40% of the job Dodd is doing and voters say 53% to 39% that he does not deserve reelection. Even former World Wrestling Entertainment executive Linda McMahon gets 43% to Dodd’s 41%.
Time will tell as to whether the other Republican candidates can credibly challenge Simmons. McMahon is clearly well-funded, and her pro wrestling background suggests some familiarity with the kind of populist appeal that made Jesse Ventura a governor, but Ironman at Next Right, a close observer of the Connecticut political scene, thinks she is a poor stump speaker and too close with Rahm and Ari Emanuel and Lowell Weicker to be trusted, including a $10,000 donation to the DCCC in the fall of 2006 while it was pouring money into Connecticut to help defeat Simmons and Nancy Johnson (McMahon herself didn’t vote in that election).
Connecticut voters disapprove 48% to 45% of the way Obama is handling health care. The poll shows that voters trust a Republican over Dodd on the health care issue, 43% to 37%. And this is a liberal northeastern state; today’s Q poll in Ohio, which shows some encouraging news for Rob Portman, has voters disapproving of Obama’s health care plan by 55% to 36% and Obama’s approval rating running lower than the Democratic Senate candidates.
If Connecticut is turning into dangerous turf for elitist progressive Democrats and their big government schemes that should be a sign to encourage opponents of big government everywhere to get in the game.
America we can defeat Obamacare socialized health care. We can elect real conservatives in 2010. Stay engaged.
