Democrats target seven states in 2006 Senate races
By Devlin Barrett, Associated Press Writer | December 27, 2005

...

"Schumer, the head of Senate Democrats' campaign efforts, said Tuesday he is focusing on seven states where he believes they can take GOP-held Senate seats in 2006: Rhode Island, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Missouri, Montana, Tennessee, and Arizona."

...

"The NRSC also is looking at replacing some Democratic senators in places like Maryland, Minnesota and New Jersey."

Some of you have emailed me about candidates stepping forward to run against Hillary in the primary.

Thoughts about Hillary Clinton

Sun, 13 Nov 2005 16:09:30 -0500

Many of you have emailed me about calls to oppose Hillary Clinton.

I'm still going through a backlog of emails from you all, but so far I have gathered that we have two opinions we need to reconcile. One says that Hillary is entirely reprehensible and should be immediately opposed. (Note that no serious candidate has come forward yet). The other says that Hillary is far from our views but opposing her would be political suicide for PDA at this time. Somewhere in between lie the concepts of pressuring Hillary with threats of opposition (the stick), or working with her to move her to the left (the carrot).
