Larry Larocco needs to just give it up. He lost bad in 1994, wasn't even close in 2006, and will get nowhere in 2008.
Of course, he will get nominated, since the dems don't have anyone better there.
Well, being the former Lt. Gov makes him the highest elected official in all of Idaho. I predict Craig wins 58-41.
(1) LaRocco was never elected Lieutenant Governor.
(2) In 2006, he failed to break even 40% of the vote. And that was for a state office, not a federal one, where Democrats tend to do better!
LaRocco is a two-time loser headed for a third loss. No one is going to put money into the campaign of a surefire loser, and without money, LaRocco isn't going to even come close.
Dude hasn't held office in almost 15 years.
If he runs against Craig, it's going to be somewhere around a 65 - 35 result, maybe even worse for LaRocco. Republicans spending money there to defend the seat is pure fantasy. It's friggin' Idaho, and the voters like Craig, no matter how much ridiculous gay baiting DailyKos wants to do with him.
Best case scenario, it's Sali vs. LaRocco, and even then, LaRocco is all but guaranteed to lose.
Because it's
Idaho.
