Do you think the Yucca Mountain Repository issue will play a factor in the Senate race next year?

No, I don't think anyone cares much about the nuke repository except for the granola-munchers. The raping we got in the last legislative session, however, will be on everyone's mind.

I agree about Yucca; the whole Nevada delegation was against it.

I'd bet at this point that JG will run. Which makes the senate races look much better:

West
CA - Marin & Strickland
WA - Nethercutt
NV - Gibbons
SD - Thune?
ND - Dale Brown?

South
NC - Burr
SC - DeMint, Condon, Ravenal, et al
GA - Cain, Collins, Isakson, Bartell
FL - Byrd, Webster, Weldon, Foley, McCollum
AR - Huckabee????? [Huckabee’s overall favorability rating was 59.4 percent in the poll (Aug 14th), about the same as U.S. Sen. Blanche Lincoln, D-Ark., who received a 60.4 favorability rating.]

Elsewhere
IL - Ryan, Cox, Oberweis, McKenna
WI - Michels, Welch, others

Plus the Alaska probable primary and possible open seats in OK and LA.

How did a Western MANLY state get a nambypamby weasel like REID?? I cannot figure that out. He's a GIRLY-man.
