Neither Ed Bryant or Van Hillary have done a good job of getting around the state making themselves heard. They are counting on Mike Fleming, Steve Gill, Hallerin Hill, and Phil Valentine to be their campaign mouthpieces. While Corker has spent the cash, the other two have done little to help their cause. It is is truly disappointing and it is no one else's fault but their own.

Corker has another advantage. He makes a statement and the media picks it up. (Same with Ford.) I am on Bryant's daily e-mail list. If it were not for his detailing where he is each day, you would never know he was campaigning.

I've heard more Bryant ads than Ford. In a normal race, Bryant would be leading. But Corker has put almost two million of his own into his campaign. He is basically buying the seat.

Polls I have seen show Corker ahead still, but Corker and Hilleary are in steep declines and Bryant is climbing rapidly. Whether it is enough, I don't know. But in 2000 M/D had Gore neck and neck or ahead of Bush just days prior to the election. A blot on their not so bad track record that year.
