If Dems hold the Burris & Dodd seats |
|
Then all we need is to elect Robin Carnahan to fill Bond's seat. And after that, tell Lieberman to kiss ass where he will move across the isle where he belongs. I don't think he can get re-elected as a Republican.

10. You are forgetting 3 or more Senate seats we could easily lose. |
|
Harry Reid's in Nevada.
Joe Biden's old seat in Delaware.
Michael Bennet's seat in Colorado.
Blanche Lincoln's seat in Arkansas.

Look around. What exactly do we need his seat for??
Look I am a team player, and am not buying into the vitriol, but listen, even with a full DEM congress and Senate and WH, i mean 100%, what does that look like to you? What's it get you??
I think I am going to turn local for a while, maybe we all should.
Edited: for my misrepresentation for his vote on Graham-Bliley. Still think he is crooked though.

5. It's not looking good for Dodd. And besides even |
|
without Lieberman we still have other Dem senators who like to vote against the interests of Democratic voters so what does it matter?

6. We can hold Burris's seat |
|
Mark Kirk is not electable in Il. Not only will he lose the Senate race but he could lose his seat in the house as well.

9. We are going to lose Harry Reid's seat. Don't forget that. |
|
He's way down in the polls against all of his Republican challengers.
There's no guarantee we will keep Biden's seat either.
Michael Bennet in Colorado is in trouble, as well.
I highly doubt we are going to be gaining any Senate seats in 2010.

11. I hope Nader runs against Dodd. |
|
I liked Dodd for years.
His private mortgage deal in face of the mortgage meltdown is unforgivable. He first lied about it then tried to make light of it.
Now, he votes to prevent Americans who need cheaper meds from getting them from Canada.
He needs to retire. He will lose. Look at his polling.
Nader should run, hopefully as a Democrat in the primaries.

12. Nader hasn't lived in CT since I was alive |
|
he's about as much of a Nutmegger as Sick Rick Santorum is a Pennsylvanian.
