Many Republican candidates are yet to gain name recognition and air ads. This suggests that at the bottom of the list, Republicans have more room to grow... which would lift the average Republican advantage even higher. <br /><br />PA: Toomey, Luksik<br />NH: Ayotte, Binnie, Bender, etc.<br />MO: Blunt, Purgason<br />CO: Norton, Buck, Wiens, etc. <br /><br />For the opposition party to be running so strongly this early is truly striking. Such strong early favor by the voters towards Republicans is precisely the metric that led to the bold predictions of a Republican majority in 1994.Christian Libertyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04842885802414436051noreply@blogger.com
