The idea of South Dakota being seriously contested...Republicans need to let go of that one.  Johnson is running for re-election, is popular and has sympathy for what he has suffered.  He would beat Governor Rounds - even if Rounds ran which seems unlikely.  The Republican bench is pretty shallow in South Dakota.

A recent poll showed him beating Rounds 53%-39%.

What pollster?

Thune won with over 74% in 2000, the last election before he ran for Senate. Rounds won with 61.69%.

I'm surprised Thune did get so popular. He doesn't fit the state that well.

That doesn't necessarily mean he was most popular.  Obviously, there are other variables involved.  Most popular can easily be confused with least offensive.
