no coattails

ok, so mm really enjoyed the national nbc news story last evening that highlighted the special election in ky....and predicted that it might indicate an erosion of not only dubya's coattails, but also may indicate the turn of the tide.....democrat chandler won with double-digits over republican alice forgy kerr...whose ads featured her walking nearly arm-in-arm with dubya on the white house porch................we also had an astonishing voter turnout for a special election.................though chandler's newly elected term is a mere 8 months.......anyone who chooses to run against him for relection this fall must be shaking in 'they shoes' because it won't be the cakewalk pundits predicted after chandler lost to republican e.f.for the governor's mansion...............but then, the state of fresh off the governor's mistress scandal.............and that stench appears over..........................congrats to chandler....................
