Looks like the field has been set. Bob Schaffer wasn't the Republican establishment's first choice, but he could still run a strong campaign. In 1986, everyone said that Ken Kramer was a sure loser, but he came within 2% of winning. The biggest problem Schaffer faces isn't his conservatism, but regional politics. The other U.S. Senator, Wayne Allard, also represented the 4th. district, and Colorado residents might not want two Senators who hail from the same area.

Excuse me if I don't find your example comforting.


Losing by 2% or 20% doesn't much matter in terms of how much I see Tom Dashle on TV.
