Thing is that Andy Cuomo gets so unlikeable when he campaigns, Caroline could be sitting pretty by the Sept'10 Dem primary.
Auditor Robert Thomas Wagner Jr. in Delaware is the only state-wide Republican apart from Castle.

Oh, I expect a massive disaster or disasters plural. The False Messiah is going to get a lot of people killed. Let us hope it is in the areas that most strongly supported him. They’re gonna get some “change” alright.

Gov. Ritter has announced Denver Superintendent of Schools Michael Bennet as Salazar’s successor when he becomes Interior Sec. Bennet has never held elective office before. No mention if John Salazar will run in 2010 against him.

Is it too late for Governor Matt Blunt to appoint Steeleman?

Reid is very vulnerable. NV is PO’ed about his shift to the left.

I don't know what Wagner even does. He's held that office since he was appointed to it in 1989. We held most of the other lesser statewide offices, but have lost the rest of them one by one. There hasn't been a new Republican elected to major office in DE since 1994. There's no real farm team of people anymore. I wish Pete Du Pont had taken out Biden in 1984. I think it would've perhaps altered the landscape. Creaky, aging RINOs are no way to ensure a strong GOP future.

Is it too late for Governor Matt Blunt to appoint Steeleman? Considering Kit Bond is still in office then I'd say it's too early to appoint Steeleman.

Poor timing on Bond’s part.

He was always on the left. It’s just that now the state sees so much of him and his public behavior and ethics, they’ve gotten sick of him. Like how my state of TN got sick of Gore after he became VP after being extremely popular (although they didn’t really know how left-wing he was until then).

Bond will be almost 72 by the time his term expires. He was 47 when he first won in 1986, and he obviously doesn’t want to be serving in the minority and spending his retirement years in DC. 24 years is a good, long stretch for anyone. Probably twice as long as anyone should spend in that cesspool.

Specter, McCain and Voinovich are all RINOs and should be replaced. The first item on the agenda for the new chairman of the RNC (Hopefully Blackwell) should be to try and put the conservative base in order by ridding us of the RINO and neocon factions.
When conservatives run as true conservatives with a conservative message, we win. All of the Republican losses from the last four years can be pinned directly on neocons or RINOs with a good smattering of globalists to coordinate each crisis for maximum damage to cause maximum advancement for the globalist agenda. Read todays front page on World Net Daily where Kissinger is quoted as saying Obama can use the latest series of crises to finally create the NWO.

In Minnesota the people believe the sun rises in whatever direction the Democrats tell the people it does because Democrats are never wrong.

Boxer D(umbass) from CA is up in 2010.
Feinstein might also be, if she runs for Governor.
To: Mr Inviso
Steelman needs to start the process now; not wait for other Republicans to get a head start. I won't miss Bond. He has become another Chuck Grassley or Dick Lugar—forgotten who sent him to Washington and why.
To: AmericanGirlRising
Is’nt Salazar taking over Interior, so his seat will be need a challenge.

No way to Roy Blunt. Not a terrible guy, but he’s a “Bush Republican” if there ever was one. A guy who loved pork and loved lobbyists, plus the Blunt name isn’t too great in Missouri right now.
The best candidates would be Steelman, Kinder, or Akin. There may be a few others emerge. Carnahan is going to be tough, however 2010 should be friendlier territory than 06 or 08.

Is Bond scared Obama will campaign for whatever opponent may face him in 2010??
This is startin’ to look really rough folks.
Republicans bailing out like rats and a ship.

Read todays front page on World Net Daily where Kissinger is quoted as saying Obama can use the latest series of crises to finally create the NWO.I read it last night and got a gut-ache. It sounds like we're heading to a combined North America, the Amero currency, and the rest of the NWO dribble that has average people calling us all tin-foil-hatters.
