Besides President, what contests are you most interested in?

[soleft]

I'll be staying up real late to see what happens with Prop 8 in California, also the equivalent prop on ballot in Florida.

Other than that, I'd really like to see Franken win, and i want Hagen to kick Dole's butt. I would say wrinkly butt, but she's probably had it botoxed.

[Writer]

1. Colorado's 4th CD... it's time for Musgrave to go.

Go Betsy!

[soleft]

7. What are the currently polls showing?

[rockymountaindem]

24. Musgrave is trailing and the RNCC has pulled the plug on her n/t

[rockymountaindem]

26. My pick: the CO-5 race and a Colorado Springs state Senate race

wherein Pete Lee, nice guy (D) is running against complete jackass Keith King (R) who is trying to get back into politics after quitting once Dems. took over the state government. If a Democrat can win that highly conservative seat, that will be yet another kick in the nuts for the Colorado Repubs. And Pete Lee really deserves it.

[billyoc]

2. Prop 8 first, then MN, GA, MS, KY and NC Senate races.

[SteppingRazor]

3. The Senate races in NC, MN, GA and KY. The House races in...

FL-18, FL-21 and FL-25. The state House race in FL-91. Florida Amendment 2 (and, by extension, CA's Prop. 8). That's about the extent of it.

[glowing]

4. Def. want to see what happens with that McCarthy which woman.

[soleft]

10. Who is she?

She's not that woman from OK is she?

[wellstone dem]

17. that's bachmann, GO Tinklenberg!

[soleft]

20. Oh right. Got it.

[wryter2000]

5. Prop 8

Al Franken, El Tinklenberg...I'll probably edit this several times as more occurs to me.

Oh, and no on Prop 4

[soleft]

11. Oh yeah, Tinklenberg, forgot about him!

[Betsy Ross]

6. CA prop 8

CA props 2, 4, and 7
Tinklenberg
Franken
Mark Warner
Begich (sp?)
Hagen

[Veritas_et_Aequitas]

8. MN, NC, AK senate races, CA's Prop 8, and MA's Props 1 and 2

[brazos121200]

9. The Dole/Hagen race in NC. After that despicable ad she needs to leave the Senate.

Also the race between Bachmann and her opponent. And I would really like to see the scum Saxby Chambliss get beaten in Georgia.

[soleft]

14. He's the guy that unseated Cleland?

[brazos121200]

32. Yes, using a despicable ad questioning Cleland's

patriotism and Americanism, after Cleland lost THREE limbs in Vietnam. Chambliss is the worst of a bad lot as far as I'm concerned, and I hope he gets what he deserves in this election.

[wellstone dem]

12. I want to see Tinklenberg defeat Bachmann!

Please, please, please, and I will be doorknocking this weekend to make it true.

[Bluenorthwest]

13. Oregon Senate Seat..Jeff Merkley to replace Smith

I live here and really want to see Gordon out and Jeff in. Franken I am also hoping for hard, Hagen too. And every Democrat on the ballot in Oregon and across the country!
Props wise, 8 could be a life changer. Watching and working.

[Ezlivin]

15. Legalization of Marijuana in Texas

Well, I can dream, can't I?

Legalize, regulate and tax it. That alone would go a long way to helping us dig out of our deficit.

[blue_onyx]

29. We have medical marijuana on our ballot in MI

Looks like it will pass. I don't have a problem with legalizing it completely but sometimes it takes baby steps to get somewhere.

[Ezlivin]

30. That's right

And once people get accustomed to medical marijuana and see that it's not the end of the world, we can press for wider access.

California has a really good medical marijuana program and this shows that it can be successful.

[madinmaryland]

16. Maryland has two prop's on the ballot this year.

Prop 1 - Allow for early voting (2 weeks, I think).

Prop 2 - Allow slots (gambling) in Maryland at five predetermined locations.

No Senate races this year in MD.

[alfredo]

18. Ditching Mitch McConnell (Asshole KY)

[mwb970]

19. Michelle Bachmann!

It's time for her to go.

[MadrasT]

21. I want my US Rep OUT because

he voted for that piece of crap bailout. I would've voted against him anyway, he's a repuke. But I really, really, want him gone more than ever now.

[tismyself]

22. Harry Taylor!

[GirlieQ]

23. Colorado's 4th district, CO 48 (bans all abortion), CA prop 8

I'm also excited about the Udall/Schaffer (*pfth*) race, but that's not even close anymore.

There are some great propositions on the Colorado ballot that I've been watching really closely, and trying to nudge my coworkers' opinions on. I'm sure that the teevee will tell me about issues on other states' ballots.

[norepubsin08]

25. Steven's, Chambliss, Dole, Coleman

and the Washington Governor's race and the Washington 8th US Congressional District race between Burner and Reichart and the Washington Death with Dignity initiative and the No on 8 in California

[ProgressiveFool]

27. Ca prop 8, all the senate races, Bachmann vs Tinklenberg

I want to see if CA will be fooled by 7 and 10 as well. Mostly I'd like to be there at the moment when all the talking heads realize that we're on the crest of a historic wave, and then watch all the Republicans scrambling as it breaks on their heads.

[blue_onyx]

28. I'm interested in MI Supreme Court

We have a justice up for re-election and it could really change the make up of our court. A study (I think by U of Chicago) said our court was the most partisan in the country. There are 4 conservative Republicans (the gang of 4), a moderate Republican (who publicly called the justice up for election on his improper behavior), and 2 liberal Democrats on the court. The Democrat judge has a small lead 21% to 20% but most people are undecided. I think it's unlikely for the Democratic candidate to win since the other candidate is listed as the incumbent and is on the "non-partisan" ballot.

[Freddie Stubbs]

31. FL Amendment 2

It would amend the FL State Constitution to declare that marriage is only between a man and a woman and ban the state from recognizing domestic partnerships.

[Bake]

33. KY and MS Senate races.

I really want to see McConnell given the boot in KY, and I'd like to think Musgrove has a shot at Lott's old seat in MS.

Bake

[OmahaBlueDog]

34. Franken

Pretty much all of the Senate races.

Bachmann-Tinkelburg

NE-2 should be interesting
It's not looking too good for Scott Kleeb

[vanderBeth]

35. Tinkleberg!

[Jed Dilligan]

36. Prop 8

Mainly because I'm so sick of the Mormons polluting my state's elections.

[Dr Fate]

37. Good Old Al Franken. n/t
