On The Trail: The Glass Is Half Full For The GOP?

We're another month closer to Election Day 2006 and things continue to look bad for the incumbent party. But in the spirit of trying to find good news in a sea of bad, there's a bright side that deserves a mention for the GOP. Iraq, of course, is conspicuously absent.

While things are getting worse for Republicans on the federal level, due in large part to Iraq, developments in some key governor's races indicate it's possible 2006 could mirror 2002. During the last midterm cycle, Democrats did poorly in federal races but made some significant gains on the state level, including Michigan, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Arizona and Wyoming.

I think Governor Doyle will do ok. We had Republican Tommy Thompson for what 17 years and he ruin our state. Governor Doyle is doing a great job.

Senator Russ Feingold I am so proud of him for standing up for the people of Wisconsin and America.

GO RUSS GO!!!!
