3. I disagree about WA
In 2000 Cantwell narrowly defeated Gorton, who was surprisingly conservative from what I can tell, especially considering he was from WA. WA was able to elect a rightwinger like Gorton for a few terms, and I think many Democrats have forgotten that. I won't be surprised if there are enough Democrats who want to Naderize or not vote for Cantwell and cost her the election. You know, the whole "I am not comfortable voting for that DINO, but I am comfortable subjecting WA to an even more pro-war and conservative Republican, and subjecting America to a greater Republican majority" argument.
