I strongly agree that the GOP should not throw in the towel in the Hillary race.
That said, most of Hillary's support in 2000 was concentrated in a few urban areas.
It's that kind of lack of support that won't produce any coattail effect in the congressional races in 2006.
it won't look like that this time - she will win alot of those upstate counties, they are hollowed out up there of any republican voters.
