Arkansas: Blanche Lincoln Hides from Voters, Frolics in Boston with Biden

"This is clearly payback for Senator Lincoln's unwavering support for President Obama's big-spending, job-killing agenda. Boomerang Blanche delivered the crucial 60th vote on Obamacare and now they are delivering crucial funding for her campaign.  The question Arkansas voters are wondering: Why are you afraid to have the president and vice president come to Arkansas?  Blanche Lincoln must know the Obama-Biden team is just as unpopular and out-of-touch with Arkansans as she is."

Maybe he will, maybe he won't (run, that is) -- but Arkansas state Sen. Bob Johnson's announcement that he is mulling a Democratic primary challenge to U.S. Sen. Blanche Lincoln is an indication that even members of Lincoln's own party view her as a potential target in 2010.
