Pray, please name one conservative Democrat (no fair naming Zell Miller, as he is retired, and is shunned by the Democrat Party anyway). Conservative Democrat is an oxymoron.
Missouri Democratic Senator Claire McCaskill’s three leading Republican challengers all now earn 50% or more of the vote in match ups with her.
In other words....
In today’s polls, the “Claire-bear” is getting stuffed, mounted and displayed by all three Republican challengers. After the election, “Claire-bear” will be displayed at the Wasilla museum of natural history.
You’re right, there are only a few who call themselves conservative but are not in any kind of reality. At this time the only one of those I can even think of is the Senator from West Virginia, I think his name is Mancin.
“the next Senate will not only be led by a Republican majority but that Republican caucus could well be led by conservatives.”
I would love nothing more than to have someone like DeMint oust McConnell (and a conservative replace Boehner) but have had my hopes dashed too many times to get them too high now.
But you are right, sending a few new troops like Mourdock, Cruz, Neumann, Mandel, Steelman, etc. would get us that much closer.
MO has moved ahead of ND and MT in the order of likely pickups.
As I said last week, McCaskill might as well change her first name to Blanche.
