It looks more to me like a plan.
Up for re-election??? It's the man's first year in office...

And the rating of his policies say that they have failed.

Or was that one out of Obamas 57 states?

You do realize that they were the only state voting, right? And have been congratulated by virtually every other state for their choice?

At least that had something to talk about, unlike your comment.

Palin has as good a chance of beating Obama as she does seeing Bigfoot. How's that?

I wouldn't count the chickens before they hatch.
But its not one elction. Ypou have to look at new jersey;Virgina and now a seat that has been held for 42 years i on e fo teh most blue of sattes. haven't had a republican senator since 1972.A new populart presdient in just one year that no longer seems to have coattails at all.Then loo at Reaids problems in nevada. lookig at the number of bluedog deomocrats who were the majptioty opf new elcted to congress;that looks like trouble to me. It really seem like the democrts are the ones that counted their chickens before they were hatched and with disdasterous results. just their piling on the ea party portesters as some nit cases seem like cutting your throat now with why we see independent abandoning the party like never before.
