I agree that we have to win SD - - - but that won't be enough to give the GOP control, because (Assuming Repubs don't lose any seats) we'd be back to 50-50 -- and in that event, Chafee has said he might follow the JEffords example and go independent. There's also McCain, who can't be trusted. Bottom line: for real control, the GOP needs to pick up at least TWO Senate seats. They could pick up one of those in MT - no sweat - if Racicot ran. But he WON'T. That tells me that he doesn't care as much as you and I about who runs the Senate; he's not as troubled as you and I about Daschle being in charge. OK, fine, Racicot has a right not to care enough to run. But if he doesn't care, WHY SHOULD HE BE CHAIRMAN OF THE GOP? It shows that the party is, indeed, the STOOPID party, whose top brass are careerists and lobbyists, not passionate about the issues you and I care about.

IF Racicot's more interested in being a millionaire than in helping the GOP win back the Senate - if he's more passionate about making big money than he is passionate in wanting Daschle out, --- ie if he refuses to run for Senate because he wants big lobbyist bucks then HE SHOULDN'T BE GOP CHAIRMAN - - - in fact, HE'S A JERK!!!!!!
