Dole didn't even get 55% the when she won the first time against a sucky candidate.

Dole won by the largest margin of any North Carolina Senate candidate since Watergate, Democrat or Republican.
Is this supposed to make up for the fact that her margin was still insignificant?

Most intelligent people do not consider an 8.6% margin "insignificant."

It will be a grusome year for Republicans.

On what issue can Republicans credibly claim to have a serious policy solution?

Iraq?
The economy?
Immigration?
Gas prices?

Republican candidates will be on the defensive in:

Alabama
Idaho
Kansas
Kentucky (maybe)
Nebraska

Losing 10+ U.S. Senate seats is a real possibility.

I have to hand it to Kos, he's doing a good thing with these polls.

How did I forget the Oklahoma race?

The national party will have to pour money into this crazy to keep their kook in office.
