Virginia: New Rasmussen Reports poll: popular Democratic former Governor Mark Warner is demolishing unpopular Republican former Gov. Jim Gilmore 60-33. Outstanding.
Minnesota: Al Franken has released a thought-provoking new ad humbly suggesting that we should be investing in America at least at the rate in which we are investing in Iraq:
The ad comes none too soon as a new SUSA poll sees Republican Norm Coleman leading Franken 52-40, even as other recent polls show a much closer race.
The state's transportation system has suffered as the power elite, such as Lt. Gov. Jim Risch, have closed their eyes and tried to wish away their leadership responsibilities.
"We've spent the last five years rebuilding Iraq," LaRocco said. "But instead of investing our taxpayer dollars in nation-building programs abroad, I want a nation-building program right here at home."
Republican Jim Risch wants to be a Bush-rubber-stamp. Larry LaRocco wants to invest in Idaho. The choice is clear.
Texas: Bush-rubber-stamp John Cornyn has released a new ad (or, perhaps, a short film on elderly fake cowboys) and it's, well, it's... something. Watch it, but sit down first. Really. Sit down first. Of the ad, Cornyn himself said: "My staff convinced me it was a good idea... Maybe I need a new staff."
