2010 Senate Preview

By Doug Mataconis | Related entries in 2010 Election, Senate

Sean Oxendine takes an early look at the 2010 Senate races and finds that the field isn’t very hospitable for the Republicans:

At first glance, the outlook is pretty grim for Republicans. Of the two competitive Senate seats for the Democrats, both probably at least slightly lean their way to start. For the Republicans, probably three of the four Senate seats for Republicans are at best 50-50. With the right combination of recruiting, retirements and national environment, this could easily get really bad, really quickly.

At best, the GOP seems to have a chance to pick up one or two seats in two years absent a truly bad turn of events for the Obama Administration.

At worst, the Democrats could actually increase their already substantial majority. In either case, it is fairly clear that the Senate will stay in Democratic hands for the foreseeable future.

    Good! The fewer white racist christian republicans in government the better. I just wish that more republicans would get jail time to repent of their evil outlook and actions on society.

    I thought liberals like Dennis were traditionally against law enforcement and jail sentences, even for those who admit to their crimes – wouldn’t Bill Ayers be a prime example of that?

    I guess Dennis also thinks that being Christian makes one racist – is this true? Please, Dennis, give us some examples of remarks or actions that make you categorize them all as “white racist christian republicans” so that you don’t look like someone just spouting nonesense.

    Oh – and learn what grammar is…

    @Dennis – that kind of nonsense is not welcome here in any way, shape or form. What’s more, you make the side you’re representing look petty, mean and ignorant.

    Go throw your bombs elsewhere.
