Though I complain about the liberal ways of some republicans, when the crunch comes, I vote for the least offensive candidate and that is always the Republican one.

In my own state of Illinois this is a way of life. I will be voting for the rino Judy Topinka, the alternative is worse.

Well then, perhaps I should lay in some smoked salmon and champagne for Election Night.

In Pennsylvania or Michigan, either the brave Santorum or the increasingly impressive Bouchard will pull off the major upset.

Congrats, Ricky, because for us it's going to be six more years of:

Don't worry about the pubs. Americans have had time to consider Iraq and it's no longer a swing issue.

I hope this man gets help for his crack addiction, there's no way Republicans keep Montana and Ohio or win in PA or MI. Keeping the Senate is likely though.

It’s not at all unimaginable that Lieberman will join the Bush cabinet and Connecticut’s Republican Governor Jodi Rell will then have to appoint a replacement...well, there have been rumblings that Rumsfeld is gone right after the election - and Lieberman has been a strong supporter of the war......

The point about moderate 'rats in the House helping to neutralize some of the more radical leftwingers is interesting too...apparently about a dozen of the 'rat candidates who are doing well against vulnerable 'pubs are conservative, in some cases, such as one race in NC, more conservative than the pubbie - such newcomers on the 'rat side would probably be steamrollered in any initiatives they tried to take by the lefties, but would also probably vote against any of their more outlandish schemes......
