Yeah, Taylor's got this. Never thought I'd say this, but I'm not really complaining much.

As more counties report in Mississippi, Taylor expands his lead. Still, the AP is waiting for every county to report at least 85% of its precincts until declaring a winner. The Republican's path to retaining this seat is narrowing.

3 NOVEMBER 2011



Former Republican candidate John Raese announces that he will be seeking a rematch with West Virginia Senator Joe Manchin. Raese makes his announcement with Sarah Palin at a tea party rally.

Palin:
"Hello West Virginia! Next year you will have an opportunity to elect John Raese, a great Constitutional Conservative to the Senate. I supported John in 2010 and when he asked me if I'd help him again, I sad "You bectha!." West Virginia needs John's small business experience and his commitment to restoring America to the nation that our founders envisioned it. That liberal, big-spending Joe Manchin needs to go! Ever since he's been in Washington he's been cozying up to President Obama and the liberal Democrat leadership. Thats not good for West Virginia! John had a good effort in 2010, but he fell a bit short. Next year, we can change that! So next year, how 'bout we vote those liberals Joe Manchin and Barack Obama out!"

7 NOVEMBER 2011

PPP: West Virginia Poll

Summary: Despite President Obama's low approvals here, both of West Virginia's Democratic Senators remain very popular, as their approvals approach 60%. Heading into 2012, Manchin opens with an impressive 16-point lead. Raese doesn't seem to be a particularly strong candidate; he posts slightly negative favorables. Manchin leads by 21% with independents and gets almost 25% crossover support from Republicans, this is very impressive considering the polarized political atmosphere. With Rep. Shelley Moore Capito likely to run for Governor, the Republicans seem like they will be unable to recruit a strong candidate to challenge Manchin.

Do you approve of the job Senator Joe Manchin is doing?
Yes-56%
No-36%

Do you approve of the job Senator Jay Rockefeller is doing?
Yes-58%
No-35%

Do you approve of the job President Barack Obama is doing?
Yes-35%
No-58%

Do you have a favorable view of John Raese?
Yes-43%
No-47%

If the 2012 Senate race was between Joe Manchin and John Raese, who would you vote for?
Manchin-54%
Raese-38%

9 NOVEMBER 2011



Throughout my career, I have built a pragmatic conservative record. While I have remained true to my conservative roots, I have often worked in a bipartisan way to better serve the people of Utah. Sadly, my work across the aisle has become a political liability. For instance, the right is using my bipartisan my work with my great friend Ted Kennedy to attack me.

In 2010, Bob Bennett fell victim to the far right. Bob was a great Senator and I greatly enjoyed working with him; I couldn't have asked for a better colleague. In 2012, I have decided to fight back against the tide of ideological extremism that is flooding the Republican party. Therefore, rather than seeking the Republican nomination, I will seek reelection as a candidate with No Party Affiliation.

By running as an independent, I can focus on my Senate work and not have to worry about answering to ideological purists; instead, I will answer to the people of Utah. My constituents have trusted me to represent them in the Senate for 36 years. While this bold move will likely pit the entire state Republican party against me, I am confident that my constituents will afford me the chance to serve them for 1 more term.
