Inez Tenenbaum will, at most, receive 44%-47% of the vote.

I dunno, Alex Sanders got 44%. There are a lot of unexplored factors in SC, since they've only had one open senate race in the 20th century (hyperbole). Will being female help/hurt Inez? Will her personal popularity carry her in a federal race?

I think the Bush connection & SC's Republicanness will result in a GOP win but 47% is too close to 50% +1 for my comfort. Someone with high negatives like Charlie Condon could conceivably lose, which would be disastrous.

Personally I'm not afraid of Inez.

She seems to me to be way overhyped by a state party with no other stars.

IMO She has a better shot at Governor than Senate because those races are less partisan. But I think she's lose that too.
