The Senate: America’s House of Lords.

So does a sitting Senator get reelected or does the challenger. who just moved to the state last fall to run on her family's political name, rather than her married name?

In any case involving carpetbaggers, I go with the locals. Doesn't matter whether it is HClinton, or A. Keyes, or T. McAuliff, or L. Cheney or any other who carpetbags purely for political purposes.

That was part of the reason former Senator Blanche Lincoln lost her seat -- she lived in Virginia while trying to claim she represented Arkansas. Arkansans responded, "No thanks, Blanche."

If Liz really wanted to do something, why not challenge a sitting Democrat?
