__________________
LIST 3 - from Ron Paul blog
This is a list from the Ron Paul website - looking who his party could knock
off
Just some humor:
"Politics is supposed to be the second-oldest profession. I have come to
realize that it bears a very close resemblance to the first."
- R. Reagan
"Recession is when your neighbor loses his job. Depression is when you lose
yours. And recovery is when Barack Obama loses his."
- R. Reagan (brought up to date)
Retiring Senators:
FL, as Jeb Bush said he won't run.
Sam Brownback (R) of Kansas- Good opportunity if we can get a good candidate
Kay Bailey Hutchinson (R - Texas) possibly retiring .(2012). She is eyeing
a run for Governor.
Possible retiring Senators
Bob Bennett (R) of Utah-If retiring, a decent chance to pick up a seat
Chuck Grassley (R) of Iowa-Possible
Daniel Inouye (D) of Hawaii-Not in a million years
Patrick Leahy (D) of Vermont-I don't know much about Vermont politics, but
they did elect a socialist, so I'm going with "not likely."
John McCain (R) of Arizona-This would be fun, even if McCain decides to stay
in, I want Barry Goldwater, Jr. to challenge the seat to reclaim its glory,
if only for a term
Barbara Mikulski (D) of Maryland-Not likely
Roland Burris (D) of Illinois-Go for either way
Richard Shelby (R) of Alabama-""
Evan Bayh (D) of Indiana-""
Byron Dorgan (D) of North Dakota-Lots of popular people want it, so probably
not a good idea
Judd Gregg (R) of New Hampshire-Go for it
David Vitter (R) of Louisiana-Not sure if it's a good idea or not
John Thune (R) of South Dakota-Probably won't be open, so probably not a
fertile place to run
Democratic Incumbent Races
Senator Carl Levin (d) Michigan is up for relelction and voted for the
bailout plan. His challengers Jack Hoogendyk(r) and Scotty Boman (L)
Blanche Lincoln (D) of Arkansas-Not vulnerable at all, unless the Huckster
goes for it
Barbara Boxer (D) of California-Since she is liberal, it might be a good
place to get an RP Republican to work turning the Golden State red
Christopher Dodd (D) of Connecticut-Probably not a shot to pick this one up
Harry Reid (D) of Nevada-He's vulnerable, and the nomination is possibly
winnable if a popular Republican doesn't step up
Ken Salazar (D) of Colorado-Might be a good place, I don't know really
Chuck Schumer (D) of New York-To unseat Schumer would be to throw the Cosmos
into disarray, you might as well try to throw the Earth out of orbit around
the Sun
Ron Wyden (D) of Oregon-Probably not, but it might be worthwhile to give it
a shot
Patty Murray (D) of Washington-Good place to run, especially if Dino Rossi
wins the Gubernatorial Race
Russ Feingold (D) of Wisconsin-Not a good idea to waste money against this
hater of free speech
Republican Incumbent Races-All not marked aren't winnable
[Voinovich is getting old (currently 72), and this next session Pryce is not
running again. If she did, she'd lose. She barely won last time around, and
with all the new registrations in the columbus area due to obama targeting
this portion of the state, not to mention the strong democratic feel of this
election cycle, she'd get creamed, probably badly, which would spell the end
of her political career. So, instead she's stepping aside for a year or two
to 'spend time with family' (read protect potential future aspirations).
She's the highest ranking female republican in the party (unless palin wins)
so she's going to try to move up. Only spot upward is senate, they need a
replacement for voinovich, and a congresswoman from the columbus region
gives them a serious shot at maintaining the seat.]
Lisa Murkowski (R) of Alaska
Mel Martinez (R) of Florida
Johnny Isakson (R) of Georgia
Mike Crapo (R) of Idaho
Jim Bunning (R) of Kentucky
Richard Burr (R) of North Carolina
George Voinovich (R) of Ohio
Tom Coburn (R) of Oklahoma
Arlen Specter (R) of Pennsylvania-He's ailing, don't mention that, but the
voters will know, and conservatives don't like him much anyway
Jim DeMint (R) of South Carolina
Kit Bond (R) of Missouri
