Why do you say we "dodged a bullett" with Sttle. Cardin kicked his ass; the final margin was like 8-10. O'Malley had a good margin too. For all the talk, MD did very well.
Because he thinks Steele is a wackjob...
Steele worries me as well... Even losing by what he did, he is in a VERY blue state in a WAVE year. He still has a political future and is one of the bad guys to keep an eye on. My Bet is we face him again int he next 2-4 years.
Ford is the same way. He lost a very close race in a state that trends GOP. He lost because Corker had to resort to the worst type of Rovian tactics...Again someone who will be back and is a good candidate for a southern state. Not my favorite kind of politician, but he is a guy I think who will eventually be able to win in Tennessee.
