I think our biggest recruiting missteps were in FL, NE and ND-- the GOP should have all those states with the right candidates...

Good analysis. The Senate has proved worthless except for approving judicial nominations after every member has spent hours on C-SPAN bloviating. Still, a RINO Senate is at least marginally better than one run by the Dims. I do hope Santorum makes it. He's one of the few with real integrity.

My real hopes lie with the House. That's where real damage can be done if the Dims take over.

It's only May. Nelson is "up 19 points" but only at 54%, that is pretty shaky in a Republican state.

When the issue becomes "do you want Ted Kennedy, Harry Reid, et al to run the Senate, the "likeable" Ben Nelson will be kicked to the curb. Nebraskans will have no stomach for that.

Also, for a guy who is supposedly aided by "Bush's low poll numbers", Ben Nelson sure is sucking up to him.

While Menendez is one of the most mediocre candidates on the scene today and is running as a half-@ssed incumbent, I don't see Kean winning NJ at all. Pardon my French, but New Jersey is one of the most f#cked up states in the U.S. -- and it will probably be decades before it elects anything remotely close to a normal, well-adjusted human being to public office on a statewide level.

89 safe seats out of 100? The senate is either doing a great job or the elections are a farce.

MD- D- open (Sarbanes seat) vs. Steele (30% chance GOP)

I think Steele has a good chance, especially if Mfume makes a mess of the Dem primary.

Senator Allen from VA will most likely be re-elected, but I think the election will be closer than some predict.

Senator Warner is up for re-election in 2008, but I have a feeling he won't run if Tom Delay gets in the mix. Warner is not as well-liked as he once was. Myself, I have been very disppointed in him, except for his votes on SCOTUS.

Yeah, I remember us waiting around for someone strong to emerge to take on the Democrats in those states, particularly in North Dakota, and it never happened, and in the case of Harris, her candidacy just went down the tubes.

Today BRUCE HERSHENSON stated at the Nixon Presidential Library that till now the most important American Election was the after-Watergate 1974 Election, after President NIXON had been forced to resign for Watergate.

It was immediately after this Democrat Victory that Senator FRANK CHURCH's Investigating Committee started depleting our intelligence community and exposing secret agents and those who cooperated with them abroad ..leading to many deaths.

This Democratic Congress then cut off all funding for the Free South Vietnamese to fight for their own Freedom with, 2 1/2 years before the Vietnam War's end. This as the Communist Soviet Union gave $6 Billion in Military aid to the Communist North for its final solution in the South. Resulting in millions of S.E. Asian deaths afterwards.

The Democrats are now doing all they can to duplicate that devasting 1974 Election Victory in Election year 2006 ..with the death of millions again in their cards.

The Enemy is now Within...
...and always has been.

They must be STOPPED this time, or else...

The DUmmies will find enough dead voters to vote several times to steal another election.

What was the final on the Washington law suits against the DUmmie tricks ?

The last New Jersey Senate race was amazing. The twists and turns was better than the Sopranos.

If Kean's numbers stay high, the dog and pony show will start again.

The ploy of running a pro-life Democrat (Casey) is going to backfire because the liberal base will not be energized to bring out the huge Phila aree majority necessary for the Democrats to win the state. Casey's lead shrinking,

I'll move NEBRASKA into the Contests the next time I update the list. At this point, is DOUBTFUL GOP (30% chance) reasonable?
