Hopefully Murkowski runs as an independent. She was one of the few not terrible Republican Senators.

If she gets the ballot line through a legitimate method, I'm going green avatar.  Not that I think that's likely.

I'm sure all 26 members of the Libertarian Party will be crushed.

The New York Times is backing one of Rangel's primary challengers, Joyce Johnson. They also recommend keeping Carolyn Maloney.

I wonder how many voters change their vote based on what the NY Times thinks. When it comes to the LA Times, I think the answer is asymptotically close to zero.

Really? I think newspaper endorsements are most important in low turnout, low information elections like primaries. Maybe not when one of the candidates is an important Congressman, but I generally base at least some of my primary vote on who my newspaper of choice endorsed, and I'm probably an above average informed voter.

Beau Biden is probably feeling a little silly for not running right now. He could beat O'Donnell by 20 points and would probably be a slight favorite against a damaged Castle if he wins on Tuesday.

Lynch is presumably a conservadem because he voted against Obamacare.
