WI-08: Kagen (though I have no clue)
MD-04: Wynn wins 56-44.
MD-Sen: Hard to tell, depends on if the black vote comes out big. I'll pick Cardin but closer than alot think, 45-41%
AZ-08: Graf wins in the low 40's.
RI-Sen: Chafee wins. I think Lamont had alot more going for him, momentum wise than Laffey yet he only won 52-48, I pick Chafee for the win.
How about our campaign committees not wasting time, resources, and money endorsing people in competitive primaries (no matter who you supported, Cegelis and Hackett, were fine candidates that were viable in a general unlike the 2 other candidates in PA) and instead spend time, resources, and money into general elections and party building. I guess that's just a crazy lefty blogger idea.......
I hope Cegelis supporters vote for Duckworth, but I have to ask. Do we continue letting the DC Democrats pull this crap with no consequences?
Looks like (unless the remaining precincts are very lopsided a la Bexar or Webb in the Tx-28) that a recount is likely...32 vote difference. Anyone know what the recount laws are like in Illnois [insert Mayor Daley joke here]?
you're right about independents. Never confuse those voters with moderates. Some of the most liberal people and the most conservative consider themself independent (As I did until recently).
These are some groundbreaking numbers, and someone let the beltway know that Censure is popular among the public.

I agree 110% Matt.
I've got a radical idea:

Chris didn't say don't go vote. He said I was consider doing nothing other than voting.

Webb hasn't came in with anything yet and those Ciro gains are from Bexar. Webb gave Cuellar a 10K plurality last time...
I'm still not too optimitric i think Cuellar is doing better eerywhere so far.
On a lighter note how is that Roger Owen guy winning the primary in the TX-01?
for those interested Delay is at 61%
Eh i'm not too thrilled that Cuellar is doing better than 2 years ago...
I'm worried if the poll is gonna turn out to be not too kind to our positions if it'll devalue MyDD's and other blogs desire to do further polls.
