I would offer this observation. If this was a devised tactic of sorts....it will be hard to get this across to fifty-percent of the Democratic voters in the state....particularly if they are over the age of sixty, or learning impaired. If they don’t see a “D” by the candidate (if they are die-hard Democrats)....they won’t vote for anyone for the position and will leave it blank.
And, some idiot group could start a fake “Democrats for Roberts” campaign....confusing folks even further. All you need is a couple of TV ad’s....having some fake Democrats talk up the sad state of affairs with their guy leaving, so it’s perfect sense to vote for Roberts.
It'd be nice to believe that they're all that stupid but they aren't. It's all over the news. I think there is a hard core that won't vote but that they're a small minority. Those that turn out will go for Orman overwhelmingly. It all depends on turnout.

And if it's unmasked then it blows up in their face. Roberts has to find something else that will stick. He's run ads about Orman's business financial dealngs, Orman's responded about it being the same old Washington politics, we'll see which side wins with that.
