I'm not sure that we would have guessed that Mayor Peterson would have been vulnerable 5 months before the election--but it sure turned out that way. You just don't know what will happen between now and then. I just don’t like leaving someone unopposed.

I understand that sullivan is also going to court the glbt vote in the 97th; there's only one problem---they already like jon elrod....i think his chances are very good. As far as the 7th goes, i hate to say it, but i think at this point it would be a lost cause to try to put someone new up for the GOP...

I heard some thinking that he would not be able to. Will the GOP try to put someone up for the 7th? I think it is a tossup either way. But I wouldn't mind seeing someone who would run with vigor (Tom Rose is a bad match for the district, but he would be heard!). Do we think he can win reelection in his House district?
