This could be a replay of Pryor vs Hutchinson in Arkansas.
Goodness, I hope not. Pryor ran unopposed in the last election (2008).
I thought that when the scandal first broke, Vitter should have resigned, for the good of the party. Everyone keeps telling me that he's come out of it unscathed and he'll be easily reelected.
The GOP is sailing into a headwind in next year's senatorial campaigns, even if they're set to have a banner year in the house. They can't afford anymore questionable Senate elections than they're already facing.
