Remember what I said above. Atkinson could just as easily get sandbagged by the Libertarians as Mannix did -- twice. Like I said, you call Mannix a loser while failing to analyze the reason for his loss. How can you necessarily claim with certainty that Atkinson will somehow be able to overcome what sandbagged Mannix ? I'm also not sure what you mean by a "smear campaign." Mannix himself had to get through a RINO-laden primary in '02, and RINOs are often the single most vicious campaigners I've ever witnessed... namely because they campaign exactly like liberal Democrats, from which they are usually ideologically indistinguishable.

-Well right now no libertarian is running (thankfully), 2nd Mannix isnt a conservative, would I call him a RINO no but he isnt a conservative. a RINO is still running (Saxton) and hes doing what RINOS to best blow smoke out of his tail. The thing that will suck is the possibility Mannix and Atkinson split the conservative votes and the RINOS get Saxton the candidnancy.
