53%.

I'll admit he wasn't much of a Senator. But there was simply no way Minnesota would've elected a Republican to the Senate this year.

Race would've been a bit more interesting though since both parties wouldn't have pulled out so early.

He would have just about won, but not by any real strength of his own.  What an absolutely pathetic senator.

Dayton "wouldn't have won the seat", Kennedy would have lost it.

I think the Independence Party nominee would have done very well, possibly more than the 7% they got in the gubernatorial race.

Less than Klobuchar got, but he still would've won, given the Democratic tide and the fact that his opponent was Kennedy (assuming that it still would've been, which I think is accurate).

I read back in 2003 that the Dayoton vs. Kennedy was the likely 2006 Senate race, so yes, it would've been.

The Minnesota GOP should learn from annointing an idiot as their candidate 3 years in advance.

I think he'd have won by about the same percentage as Jim Doyle or Jennifer Granholm. Both of them weren't very popular but were able to pull it out in Democratic-leaning states in a Democratic year.

He would have won but narrowly, Perhaps by four points or so.
