Dems win in Nov
So lets assume that Yanni is correct about the 4 senate seats. That leaves only 2 pick up for the dems. There are at least three seats out there to be picked up Missouri, Tenn and VA. Lets look at them one by one.
Tenn - The race is Corker v. Harold Ford Jr. In the latest poll Ford is up six point on Corker. Corker has been hammered for his tenure as Mayor of Chattanooga. Corker has also been accused of thwarting efforts to improve the 911 emergency system while he was mayor of Chattanooga. Unanswered 911 emergency calls rose from 8.8%, the rate when Corker took office in 2001, to 16.9% in 2005, the year when he left. According to Jimmie Dotson, the former police chief of Chattanooga, Corker repeatedly denied requests to fund more communications officers for the 911 system. Ford is a conservative Dem and this Blog predicts a tough victory but a victory none the less.
Missouri - This is a close race but the state as a whole has been trending purple along with Kansas. In the end this is a race that is too close to call so I will give it to the Repubs.
VA - The most fun race in the country right now. On one side you have a former Regan repub turned Dem in Webb on the other you have a Bona Fide racist in Allen. Lets start with the Macaca incident where he called a VA citizen a racist term, basically called him a monkey, while on tape. Then it has been hanging with the CCC, denying he is jewish, the confederate flag collection, droping the N-bomb... in fact there is just too many to count. For a brief up date go here. so in the end I think that Allen's racist past and present has finally caught up to him and sunk not only the Senate race but also his presidential ambitions. So this seat goes blue in a red state.
As for NJ Kean can only run on dads name for so long and I think Menendez pulls out a close one.
I would also like to make one correction form the previous posts.
This blog supports, reccomends and strongly endorses Ned Lamont for CT. Senate. Keeping this seat out of Loserman's hand will be like picking up another Dem seat!
Only 42 days till Victory!
