Let the games begin!

[TheRealDBear]

Missouri is a solid Republican state. Talent will win easily.

[onyx]

I'm donating to Michael Steele.

[Clintonfatigued]

Claire McCaskill is the current state Auditor. The article made an error.

[Wally_Kalbacken]

Van Hilleary - what an unfortunate name.

[LibertarianInExile]

Bill Nelson sucks. I'd vote for a Communist over that thief (the man stole from American taxpayers a free ride on the space shuttle)--at least you know the Communist is honest about their theft. And Katherine Harris is a great American.

[Aussie Dasher]

Van Hilleary...sounds like a Dutch witch!

[fieldmarshaldj]

"Van Hilleary - what an unfortunate name."

Van is his middle name. His first name is William.

[scrabblehack]

Hilleary is the unfortunate part. It is pronounced just like that other witch's name.

[lesser_satan]

And Katherine Harris is a great American.

And a hottie to boot.

[Dan from Michigan]

They forgot to mention Jerry Zandstra in Michigan. Don't count him out.

[denydenydeny]

No mention of New Jersey, where Kean has a significant lead over Menendez. If the GOP takes NJ, MD, and MN, as is very possible, the Republicans can lose PA and MT and still gain a seat. Amazing.

[princess leah]

Atleast we could mention John Spencer as a formidable conservative willing to take on Hillary Clinton in New York...Come on, we've got to help this man anyway we can, not omit his name simply because people have thrown up their hands in surrender to Hillary before the primary has even started! GO JOHN SPENCER - GO JOHN SPENCER!

[LibertarianInExile]

I would give good money to see that horse at a full gallop. Harris's er...endowment...would probably knock her out. A one-two punch, as it were.

[MassachusettsGOP]

RINO Hold

Overall No Change.

Poll: Kyl Leads Big over Pederson in U.S. Senate Race

Not surprising.

[Vision]

I'll tell you this, Steele will win Maryland. Thank God Maryland can finally do something for the GOP nationally. I've met him, he's a great guy.

[txzman]

My Money is on Ford in TN - the man is extremely sharp - will easily win over independents IMHO. He will have tons of Dem money to boot.

[MikeD]

Stabenow only won in 2000 after precincts in East Lansing stopped checking IDs and Detroit stayed open after hours. That one went down to the wire, and of course she won. It's almost worth moving back to Michigan just to vote her out of office -- it's not like Texas candidates need my help...

[Seattle Conservative]

The first time I recall hearing him was his speech at the Convention in NY. I sat here and was totally blown over by him - - REALLY hope he wins - -I think he's SUPER!
