Conrad Burns is the most unpopular member of the Senate. He was unpopular even before he got caught up in all this corruption mess, and now it seems that he's on the fast track to finally getting kicked out of the Senate.

But Montana is a SOLIDLY Republican state. Could pure partisanship save him?

Depends on whether Burns can define his opponent.  Given that they are not well known, that is possible.  We won't know that until the primaries are over.

He's had two out of three competitive contests, and politicians who weather these kinds of races regularly often keep winning.  Tom Harkin and Jesse Helms would be such examples.  Granted, it is not a guarantee, so I agree with those who say we don't know this early out.
