The downside of living in the same town as other good bloggers is getting beaten to the punch. Ginger mostly sums up my feelings about the editorials today by George Will and Clay Robison. It’s fair game for John Cornyn to play the control-of-the-Senate card in his race against Ron Kirk, but if that’s the most compelling reason he can supply I think he’s going to fail. And it goes without saying that a candidate for Lieutenant Governor who runs against Tom Daschle is a candidate in deep need of a self identity.
These races are going to come down to voter turnout. Both sides know it, and I think the GOP is scared of it. Stay tuned.
