I think she could win. I think I would give her better odds than any other potential Dem. Plus, this would be a great help for Al Gore's presidential chances in 2004 or 2008.

Tipper does not have the knowledge of the skills to survive this process. Al is not really popular in Tenn. If she runs, I will swallow the worm in a bottle of tequila.

I don't predict the Senate. It is too early, and too volatile. Those that do are just wasting bandwidth. The thing about the Senate, unlike the House, is that there is high media exposure, debates, etc., and things can swing, and gerrymandering is not in play.

Having said that, if things move more than a couple of seats either way, it will be a surprise, as of now.
