+34: net approval rating for Sen. Jeanne Shaheen. 2014: the year Shaheen will seek re-election.
+5: net approval rating for Sen. Kelly Ayotte. 2016: the year Ayotte may seek re-election, if she chooses.
Those figures are from a recent New England College poll. Shaheen is of course a leading abortion advocate. (Dispute that description? Show me one case in which she’d support an abortion restriction.) Ayotte is pro-life. She has taken a hit recently over her votes on Second Amendment-related bills & procedures. It’s tough for me to go along with any characterization of her as weak on the Second Amendment OR as “giving criminals a pass” per a recent TV ad. By the way, have the people who supported that ad already forgotten about Ayotte’s prosecution of Michael Addison for killing Officer Michael Briggs?
