Well, now, perhaps the GOP could sweep the Senate in the South after all...

We have a chance here. Our best chances, aside from GA and SC where there's no contest, are for Thune in South Dakota, and Coburn in OK.

And Martinez in FL has a good shot. I say he wins with a hair above 50%.

Actually one other poll has him up 2 and 3 others had him down by 1 point. See the link below.

Burr can certainly win, but I need some polls other than the dismal Errassmusen.

I know Rasmussen state polls are usually bogus. But from what I have read, NC has really tightened up... We dominate the South.. We are going to win that one...

GOP picks up steam in Oct, unlike the Democrats who spend most of their money early.

If the Republican can stay within striking distance during the first few months, in Oct they will pull ahead.

I expect these poll numbers to start separating by the final week (when the MSM will have to concede these losses)

Outstanding. This is good news. The Dims were really counting on winning this seat.

Now if only in my state, Bill Jones could beat that idiot Boxer.

I almost lost faith. Then the poll numbers started looking up.

Burr's gonna smash him.
