Minority Leader Tom Daschle disagrees. He seems to think the D's will pick up 5 seats in 2004, "just like 2000". I'm not sure how he's counting, but I would guess it's something like: Arizona (retirement), Illinois, Missouri, Kentucky, Pennsylvania.

Heh Heh. Wait until the delirium of the Louisiana victory wears off, at which point he'll realize his goose is cooked.

Speculation that Daschle won't run again for senate, that if he doesn't some schmuck state senator will, and that Thune & Janklow will square off in a GOP senate primary regardless:

Daschle
Thune's future
Thune v Janklow
Volesky

Good opportunity for a pickup, especially if Daschle retires. Also cute how the paper compares him to McGovern, who was defeated for reelection after running one too many times.

His chances of picking up Pennsylvania is slim and none. Specter will wipe the walls with whatever third-rate Democrat decides to run.
