We are in trouble for November. Thankfully, there is lots of time to shape up.
Ironically, losing power would shake new life into the GOP Senate. They are just asleep right now.

This race may be a harbinger of who controls the U.S. Senate next year.

Jim Talent made a mistake by backtracking support on a bill to oppose all forms of human cloning, but his record as a whole is exemplary.

All the Dims need to do is repeat 2000 where St. Louis ghetto polling places stayed open illegally long enough into the night for a dead man to win a Senate seat.

Talent hasn't even begun to pick apart McCaskill sorry record as Auditor.

that isnt the reason he is behind

It's a factor. He alienated religious conservatives but didn't win over any liberals (kinda like Mike DeWine with the Gang of 14 business).
But there are other factors at work, as well.
To: Clintonfatigued
Like the Senate GOP's lovely election year gift for Vincente Fox?

Good point. If Republicans do lose both houses of Congress, their waffling on the illegal alien issue will be a factor.
To: Clintonfatigued
Immigration is the first, second, and third issue-the only issue-as far as I'm concerned, and on that subject Bilbray's record is impeccable.

I have a question for you. With all due respect, was immigration your number one concern during the Miers debacle? You were exceptionally active during that period of time. I understood from your posts that you were frustrated because she was not conservative enough.
I am a tad bit mystified as to why now, having the opportunity later to put more solid conservative judges into place is no longer much of a concern because of illegal immigration. This problem didn't start yesterday...was here way back then...
Mostly I fail to see how your current agenda and your previous agenda sync if the GOP looses control because they are being punished for bad behavior. What do you believe we gain?

Oil up the Democrat KC Machine.

This race may be a harbinger of who controls the U.S. Senate next year.And the irony of that, from a conservative point of view, is that no matter bad how things have been sometimes under GOP control, they're going to get worse under the Democrats.
By the way, I knew Jim years ago in college. He's a fine man. But he's always seemed to be a bit low on the public approval polls that I have seen. I know that he hasn't taken a particularly high profile since he's been in the Senate, but are there other issues that are dragging him down?
To: Southside_Chicago_Republican
The dissatisfaction with Geroge W. Bush nationwide is a factor in Missouri, as well. High gas prices, consinued instability in iraq, the mimi-scandals (nothing compared to Clinton, but unfortuante just the same).

The Kansas City Democrat machine rivals their counterpart in Chicago.The folks in KC have my heartfelt sympathy.
By the way, I was listening to the news on KMOX radio from St. Louis last night on the way home, and through the static I thought I heard that, during the last election, people were brought in by the busload from East St. Louis, ILLINOIS to vote in St. Louis. I haven't been able to find anything else on that. Have you heard anything?
