I hear Ya. And I hope this comes to pass. My concern is that an impression in the voters' minds must be made early and reinforced regularly. It is true that the democrats in the Senate are blocking not only judicial appoitnts but ALL legislative efforts of the Pubs to move their agenda, but it is also true that the Pubs are not making this fact widely known at this time. They should be beating the dims with this like a drum, in the contested areas.
Defeating a regional candidate takes a regional focus. The national discussion really doesn't matter much. From what I have read, Senators are often vulnerable because they spend so little time "back home", and only return every six years for a brief campaign stint. Have heard that Daschole is very weak at home. Maybe this IS happening and I am not aware -- I live in "The Peoples Republic of Kalifornia", where the Republican Party has been on life support for over two years. I do what I can to help them, but the situation is pretty depressing. Gray-out Davis is ruining this State.
