If popular statewide officeholder Thune can't defeat a freshman Senator, what makes you think a loser (not a personal insult to John Thune, just a result of this election) out of office can defeat a powerful Majority/Minority Leader (perhaps former leader) assuming he runs?

If Thune lost due to vote fraud, it will be obvious by 2004 (given that 30 federal agents are working the case of Red Earth Running Dog Poop or whatever the heck her name is, and the THREE indictments handed down, there may yet be some felony convictions), and Daschle is going to have one hell of a time not getting tarred.

Red Earth Running Dog Poop or whatever the heck her name is...

I hope the first part comes to pass, though I'm not holding my breath. And I frankly think Tiny Tom's too smart to be tarred.
