I hope Diedrich wins, but it's far more important that Daschle loses over in the Senate race.

Right you are, although it's important to to underestimate the importance of the house elections. South Dakota, despite having two Democratic senators, is considered to be a Republican state.
It's assumed that when a Republican runs for Governor, he wins. House elections are similar. If we give up any
ground, South Dakota will become a Democratic stronghold,
and the chances of us ever getting a Republican in the
senate will be even slighter than they are now.

I can agree to a point, however I also recognize that if Herseth gets her foot in the door, by winning this election, she will be embedded in office in this state for generations. Daschle will not linger much further than 6 years, but this gal is 30. She's just getting started. She must be defeated.
