Of course I couldnt follow all the campaigns from around the country but I don't think Repubs used this tactic to their advantage enough. They should have linked their opponents to far left defeatists and America bashers. Not to mention staying on *offense* when it came to Iraq and terror. Maybe they would have done a little better using that strategy. Just my 2 cents.
Yes. And Shays was the only one to fire back hard when they tried to ring Folely around his neck and he won.
Drake's campaign hung MoveOn around Kellum's neck in VA-2, and she pulled it out as well.
How ironic. This seat, everyone, was sure it was going to flip. Actually we held on to our Red Alert seats (Gerlach, Heather Wilson, Shays). It was the 2nd and 3rd tier seats that fell.
