Feingold vs Johnson -Senate -- Johnson is a wealthy teapartier. You probably know who Russ Feingold is.

Barrett (City of Milwaukee mayor) vs Walker (Milwaukee County Exec) we haven't had a Governor from Milwaukee in my lifetime.

Just looked up Feingold on bing.com. Could not place the name with the face.

I'm still in shock that Lincoln beat Halter. Total, absolute shock.

What were the voting rules in the Arkansas? Who could vote in the run-off, did you have to vote in primary to vote in the run-off? Could a registered Republican who voted in the Republican Primary change his registration and vote in the Dem run-off?

We have an open primary here in Wisconsin you don't have to register with a Party.

Anyone could vote in the run off, and as far as I know, no you didn't have to vote 3 weeks ago to vote this past Tuesday. When I went to vote this past Monday ( I did early voting), they didn't ask which party you were affliated with. So I'm sure if a Republican wanted to vote for a Dem they could go and vote this past Monday.

Three-way for the Senate in Florida: former Republican Gov. Charlie Crist (NPA); Marco Rubio (R) and Kendrick Meek (D). This one should be really interesting. Gov. Crist is leading slightly but within the margin.

For the Governor's office, Bill McCollum (R) who hired Mr. (Rent boy preacher) George Rekers; Alex Sink (D) and former HCA exec. and millionaire Rick Scott (R); son of former governer Chiles, Lawton "Bud" Chiles (D) just jumped into the race. Another crazy Florida match-up. The latest Quinnipiac poll puts Scott in the lead (he's a self-financed candidate).

Do you think a significant amount of Republicans did just that then -- either voting for the more conservative Dem or voting for the Dem the GOP would have a better chance against?

To me it looks like Crist is taking Dem votes from Meek. The other thing I hear is the oil leak is helping Crist?

Meek is way down in the polls. People just don't know who he is. That's not Crist's fault. However, Crist has vetoed two really bad, unpopular pieces of legislation recently that has given him the teachers' vote and the pro-choice vote, two very Democrat-leaning groups. He is on top of the oil spill stuff, too, and I think that's helping with a lot of the business people, the more conservative groups in North Florida.
