I might quibble with the great John Miller in his assessment of a few Senate races; while ten months is a long time, Iโm a bit more optimistic about GOP chances in Arkansas, Connecticut, Nevada, and Pennsylvania. When an incumbent polls in the low 40s, itโs trouble, and I think we would have to see serious economic growth to get voters in those states feeling good about the job their elected representatives are doing. I think month after month of unemployment in the 8-9-10 or more percent range is going to be a millstone around these senatorsโ necks.
