Snyder will be fine. He’s just like the Dems in TN that will never be beaten with their districts in there current form unless some unseen catastrophe happens. Otherwise I see him winning 55-45 even if French “Bush lover” Hill get’s in.
Just look at his fundraising. Like a tea bagger he makes a ton of talk and debate and proceeds to do nothing. Being outspent 10:1 isn’t going to get him elected. I guess tea baggers are as cheap with their donations as they are with their taxes.
Mark Kirk is a god damn machine! I wonder if he’s prepping for something bigger or just replenishing the war chest for the next tough reelection
I have a question, would Mark Kirk be able to use the money in his congressional warchest to run for let’s say governor? I’ve been hearing that one reason why Lisa Madigan is reluctant to run for Obama’s old senate seat is because the 4.5 million she built up to run for governor cannot be used if she runs for the senate.
VA-02: Glenn Nye’s only announced opponent so far, former Virginia Beach Republican Party chair Chuck Smith, has raised $525 this quarter. No, that’s not a typo. I assume they’re waiting for a more viable candidate.
CT-Sen: Foley – $525k, Caligiuri – $125k, Simmons – “more than Foley”, no numbers for Dodd yet either
Pike in PA-6 looks to be over $500k:
