I think the Bush factor and the Anti-Clinton in this election will be bigger than most people realize at this point or that is being shown in the polls.

[Tennessean4Bush]

That sounds great. Hey, the last two polls by ARG and Univ of NH show Sununu has pulled ahead ever so slightly. Look here

[Redleg Duke]

If RCP is correct about New Hampshire, then we can thank that spineless, self-serving Bob Smith for not reining in his little sore-loser fanatics.

[Redleg Duke]

I think Bob Smith is just sitting in his chair at home, looking at the hand-monogrammed Presidential Seal that he will never be able to use.

What a pathetic way for a man to go out! Betraying his party...again!

[The Wizard]

my prayers come true if this lives on wednesday

[Redleg Duke]

You are probably correct, but let me add this please.

Any of you Sore Smithites out there who plan on either writing in Smith's name, voting for Shaheen, or not voting at all, you are aiding and abetting the culture of death in this state and country. You are stating that you support the Constitutional Right for a woman to kill her child! You are stating that you support a politician who has never run on her accomplishments, but rather on attacking her opponent, predominently with lies and distortions.

Is that what Bob Smith stands for?

[Redleg Duke]

I suspect the major fraud in New Hampshire will be occuring in Manchester, Nashua, Concord and Portsmouth. In the smaller towns, anyone trying to bus in voters will be spotted and you know we have very liberal CCL here! :-)

I know - I saw him on Rita's show, too. He kept talking about how Bush's numbers are falling - and are lower than Clinton's were during the Lewinski mess.

Morris must be on something.

Bush has the highest popularity of any president in his midterm since FDR.

[fortheDeclaration]

I think the Bush factor and the Anti-Clinton in this election will be bigger than most people realize at this point or that is being shown in the polls.

I agree!

When Republicans are polled as being this close (or slightly ahead) it is they who (barring election fraud) who pull it out.

We have a good shot at Louisina, remember she only won last time when 100,000 votes were 'discovered' in New Orleans.

If everything goes the way the polls seem to be tilting it could be a big night for the GOP.

[LS]

The face to watch, if both MN and MO go GOP, is that of Judy Woodruff and Bill Schneider. They will look like they swallowed a goldfish.

[Alberta's Child]

I think he's spending every cent of his political capital everywhere. He's been in forty states at least once, and more than once in thirty states.

Bush came to New Jersey to campaign for Forrester back in August or September when Forrester was ahead of Torricelli. He hasn't been here since Torricelli dropped out of the race -- Forrester is trailing Lautenberg.

Don't get me wrong -- I don't blame Bush at all. If I didn't live in New Jersey I'd probably never set foot here, either.

[GailA]

I hope the tehory voters don't vote for previous loosers holds true for our gov race in Tennessee Van Hilleary (R) is facing the 2 time looser weasel phil bredesen former mayor of Nashville..I want it to be 3 times looser!

Lamar holds the Senate for Tennessee. Looks like we will hold 2 House seats as well. State Sen Marsha Blackburn will take Ed Bryant's seat and Janice Bowling will take Van Hilleary's seat..unless there is massive voter fraud like there is in Memphis all across the state.
