Which Dino do you want to see go down next?

[DanCa]

Zell is the obvious choice. I also think that Blanco should be fairly high on our list.

[Rex]

1. Zell Miller.

Needs to go.

[Guaranteed]

2. He's....gone.

He retired a long time ago.

[Renew Deal]

9. lol, no. This is 2002

Duhhhhh

[deacon]

3. Feinstein

[Guaranteed]

4. Feinstein would be next. Let's see how she reacts to this

first, though.

[adarling]

8. she does piss me off, but Feinstein has been

behind election reform and sponsoring a bill that is going to go through congress to help stop the "diebold" effect.

[beltanefauve]

29. Our phone calls

and e mails also managed to persuade her to filibuster Alito, two weeks after she told the Washington Post she wouldn't, much to my surprise. And she's always been a strong supporter of choice as well. Not my favorite Dem, but can be persuaded to listen to her constituents every once in a while. It would be nice if Lamont's victory tonight sends her a strong message.

[deacon]

31. I just wrote Boxer and Feinstein demanding quick support for Ted

[adarling]

5. we need to get a great candidate down there in Louisiana

I was so grossed out by Nagin's win and to see today that they are having an anniversary party Katrina, why not spend the money on rebuilding peoples lives instead of having a party.

[RB TexLa]

22. They don't have to rebuild as much, people aren't coming back

unless you think New Orleans should have the most roads and infrastructure of any 150,000 person city in America.

[mohinoaklawnillinois]

6. Without a doubt, my Congresscritter, Dan Lipinski, IL 3rd

but it ain't gonna happen in November. He's a lock. Hopefully, someone will run against him in the primary in 2008.

He's another one of the Cook County Nepocrats.....

[jaysunb]

7. Ms Mary Landriue

:evilfrown:

[long_green]

13. I'm giving her another chance. If she comes out for Joementum

I will not be able to support her. She's just about a Republican now.

[LA lady]

14. We better watch what we ask for

As maddening as Landrieu is, I am afraid the Repukes can take her seat.

Vitter was a shock and Jindal is sneaky.

[RB TexLa]

20. Jindal is already pushing money toward Democratic groups

against Blanco, you just trying to tilt the field a little toward him before getting on it.

[long_green]

23. Jindal is supposed to be running for Governor

Richard Baker, after the attention he got for his rebuilding plan, would be a strong candidate. They could lose again if she helps get the oil money bill passed and the GOP runs another Woody Jenkins. Mary will be cast as "more liberal than Ted Kennedy" no matter what she does and the idiots down here will eat it up with a spoon. I don't really want her to lose but I won't shed any tears. And...if she does not stand with Lamont, I will not vote for her in 2008.

[Cocoa]

10. Republicans are next on the list

big election in November.

[bahrbearian]

11. Maria Cantwell

[kaygore]

12. Feinstein!!!!! I only wish that we had gotten her this time!!!!!

[joemurphy]

15. The Nelson Twins of course...and Biden and most of

the Gang of Seven (I'll give Byrd a pass). Lousy enablers.

[Blue Belle]

16. Biden.

Definitely Biden.

[RB TexLa]

17. Remember there is no Dem primary in Louisiana

More than likely if Blanco goes down that means Governor Bobby Jindal (R)

[napi21]

18. Would you people concentrate on eliminating the Pugs, PLEASE!!!!!

I understand Joe, and I'm glad he's just about done, but 06 is NOT the time to be working on eliminating Dinos. )* maybe, but the most important thing right now is to take back the majority! None of us are going to agree with every Dem all the time, and everyone has to understand that!

If you listened to any of the Ct. callers on cspan, you heard them say they didn't believe Joe was representing "Their wishes" anymore. That means if you get ticked off at Nelson from Fl, but HIS constituents want him to vote the way he does, then THAT'S what he should be doing.

Not all, but most of the Primaries are over. Now we have to work to get Dems elected!

[Atman]

21. Hear hear!

Nice post, napi.

[bling bling]

33. You're right about that. Let's let the Repubs be our enemies for awhile.

At least until after the November election.

[blonndee]

19. Ooh, I dare not say.

Except that this person faces a similar challenge as did Lieberman. This person has been a long-time "Democrat" but has betrayed the party, IMO, in much the same manner as did Lieberman.

And I hope this person loses hard because this particular person is not only a sad statement on what this party stands for, but can do significant damage to the party for years to come. And that's why Republicans want this person to do well.

edited for grammar

[readmoreoften]

28. say it say it! /nt

[kentuck]

24. Ben Nelson.

Will suffice for the moment. The rest may be saved.

[LoKnLoD]

25. Ditto..

But if he goes we will just get a -R in Nebraska. Same diff I guess though the way Nelson votes.

[kentuck]

27. Bob Kerrey had that seat before Nelson...

and he did not vote like Nelson.

[TahitiNut]

26. Ditto

He spends his time kissing GOP ass on that side of the Senate.

[fujiyama]

30. ROFL!

Zell's been gone for quite some time. He retired in '04. He was replaced by Johnny Isakson who beat Denise Majette (who replaced McKinney for two years before she decided to run for the senate).

[fujiyama]

32. I think Carper may be a decent choice

He hasn't a very impressive record. He whores for Bush on many issues.

The problem is, I don't advocate the method taken against Joe in too many other cases. This strategy would likely not work very well in red states like AR, LA, and NE. I'd love to see Landreiu or Ben Nelson actually be held accountable for her crappy Bush-agenda-voting, but let's face it, many of these states are not going to vote Dem unless the candidate appeals to their personality - and that hasn't been too often recently. Notice how many open races we've lost recently in the south. The only reason we held on to them was popular incumbent senators, and that too they kept being voted in because they were likable.

Lieberman was an unusual case and I don't think we'll see this being reproduced elsewhere on a large scale.
