NRSC gives up on New Mexico

[Verily]

"The National Republican Senatorial Committee has canceled more than $2.3 million in television advertising time the committee had reserved in New Mexico, suggesting the party thinks it has little hope of retaining Sen. Pete Domenici's seat."

Good sign, though I obviously wish they's waste more money on a lost cause.

Bittersweet.

A vote for Pearce was a vote for Udall.

[I spent the winter writing songs about getting better]

I always thought Pearce was the stronger candidate actually, just because he wasn't scandal-tainted. So this just shows that Udall had it in the bag from day one.

Look at it this way, as a better candidate than Madrid Udall would've certainly beat Wilson in her own district, would've obviously ran far ahead of the 53.5% Kerry got in his own district and I can't see how he'd run worse than Kerry against Wilson in Pearce's district. Hell he may be winning Pearce's district against Pearce with current numbers!

Well, that's a guaranteed +2 then.

     As soon as Udall jumped into the race, it was clear that he had won. Nice to see the NRSC finally caught on.
