8. Agree -- it's a volatile scene out there.
I think it would be great news if Roxanne Conlin could win that Senate seat in Iowa. Grassley is a fuddyduddy. He's none too bright and not very helpful on meaningful legislation. I'm really hoping Conlin's star rises.

Bennett is a very conservative three-term Senator. It's going to be a long-term problem for the Republicans if their rabid sub-groups become the status quo in primary states. Maybe Bennett will wage a write-in effort and slice up the GOP vote and a Democrat could slip in. It may not happen but it would serve the Baggers right.
