Flake is In Deep Doo Doo (Poll) In Arizona (legal, Republican, president)

[Mr. In-Between]

Good. Primary him out of there. Turn Arizona blue. I'm all for it.

And for any liberals thinking Flake isn't that bad a guy, that he's someone we could work with, I would like to remind you that he voted for the ACA repeal bill. Screw him. Just another R.

Yes, it's early. But, those multi-term Republican Senators who live in the DC bubble which includes the media better snap out of it or start job hunting.

Um, multi term? This is Flakes first Senate Term. He was in the US House for 6 terms though

I agree Flake will probably lose his seat to a Dem. Corker will probably hold on to his seat.

If Waters loses hers it will be to a Latino Dem. Ryan isn't going anywhere.

Yeah, CA 43 has a Cook PVI of D+29, one of the most NON Republican districts in the country. Only way Waters would lose is to another Democrat in a primary. No Republican will win that district

As much as I would love this (I even donated to Richard Carmona's campaign against Flake in his first Senate race), AZ hasn't had a Democrat senator since Dennis DiConcini who retired in January 95 at the end of his third term. And the last Democrat elected to statewide office was Governor Janet Napolitano when she was re-elected in 2006

How many if not all will lose their seats in both houses 2018 and onwards will be very interesting to watch.

All of them! Not a single one of these idiots gives a damn about America, only how much taxpayer money they can shove into their pockets.

Just read Arpaio is considering running for his seat. He'll never win.

He would be 92 years old at the end of his first term IF he won. He is delusional

I'm a big fan of Kelli Ward. When she ran against John McCain in 2016, she lost 39% to 51% in the Primary. She only got beat real good in Maricopa County. Jeff Flake doesn't have the same base as John McCain, but Jeff Flake does have Mormon voters. They make a sizeable amount of Arizona's primary, but nonetheless I am pulling for Kelli Ward. No more squishy Republicans.

It makes you wonder what it means to be a republican these days. Flake, as evidenced by his book, is the classic conservative in the mold of Goldwater and Reagan, quintessentially Republican. Yet, the majority of today's Republicans apparently oppose that brand of conservatism.

"For this poll, a sample of likely Republican households for an automated poll was chosen from the population registered to vote in the state of Arizona, and there were 500 completed responses to nine poll questions."

Same link as in the original post. Breitbart did not conduct the poll. The Daily Caller is reporting on it, too. Nice to know 2% don't know who he is since he's been in office for 16 years.
