Great first post. Welcome to the forum!
Dinniman is a strong candidate. He is recognizable and did run a good campaign to run that Special election. However, I think Gerlach has the edge. It'll be tough. Let's see if he even runs.
Thanks, Phil. Dinniman's state senate seat is up in '08 anyway, and he's not getting any younger. (I'm guessing the State Senate seat would go GOP with Aichele or Curt Schroder, though the Dems would put up a fight.)If Andy has any designs on a Congressional seat, this would be the time. A moderate presidential GOP candidate would likely help Gerlach, but I think he needs all the help he can get, as he's just never established himself in this seat. We shall see.
