Maryland's democratic senate primary should be quite interesting...at this point it's Kweisi Mfume's to win, unless they "allow" Chris van Hollen (who beat RINO Connie Morrella for congress) to run. I say "allow", because he's white and I don't think they want to see a racial race in their primary. Chris would ultimately win over Mfume. Primarily because Mfume makes alot of people (mostly white democrats) uncomfortable. Michael Steele the black republican lieutenant Governor could have a strong position in the senate race running against the whiter than white bread Chris V. Hollen.
I should have added....the only thing the democrats might throw at Mr. Steele, is his familial connection with Mike Tyson, who happened to have been married to Michael's sister, a Washington pediatrician.
I can't see us beating Conrad. In the recent SurveyUSA polling of all 100 Senators' approval ratings, Conrad was near the top... I believe his approval was just over 70 percent.
I have trouble seeing that seat as a pickup with those numbers.
