My advice: Leave it permanently off. This one is just insulting to SoS Clinton to be put with those pictures.

Here in Indiana, I'd love to see an Ellsworth vs. Hostetller race. A rematch of the 2006 Congressional race. Actually, throw Lugar in there as an Independent, and that'd be spectacular.

Santorum vs. Casey - Part II would be fun as long as it was like Part I (the result aside Tongue).

Because when browsing a political forum, some people don't want to see pictures of two guys kissing. Now, if this was a gay love forum, I'd understand your arguement. But not here.

I'd turn it off, myself, but not for that reason; it's more the fact that the sig is massive.

Linda Lingle vs. Daniel Akaka. It would be nice to see a competitive senate race in Hawaii.

I usually just put posters on ignore when they have huge signatures.

Oh and I'd actually like to see Rachel Maddow vs. Scott Brown. I think it'd be an intresting and fun race.

as you can see, everyone has a personal signature, and more or less 80% of them aren't related with politics/history/religioon... at least, that signature shows his support for gay rights.

Though Lugar is respected, if he went independent Hostettler would make like Marco Rubio to the Senate because he would have the Tea Party's full support. Ellsworth stands no chance because a lot of Indiana Dems would sway towards Lugar. Though Ellsworth could try to sway many ToryDems his way. Look at it like this

Lugar supporters (some Moderates and some liberals) Endorsed by Coats possibly Daniels and Burton
Ellsworth (some ConservaDems, minorities, unions, gays) endorsed by Carson, Vislosky, Donnelly
Hostettler (Libertarians, most Conservatives, Tea Partiers, Reaganites)Endorsed by Walorski, Pence, Buschon, Stutzman, Young

Would be a classic

Pence and Daniels would both be solid Lugar-ites. After all, Lugar is basically Daniels's political mentor and the political futures of Pence and Daniels are inextricably intertwined. And I think that it's more likely for Lugar to remain a Republican and for Hostettler to run as an Independent.

The results: Lugar 52% (R), Ellsworth (D) 30%, Hostettler (I) 17%
In a normal-two way race: Lugar 68% (R), Ellsworth 30% (D)

Paul vs. Sharp (TX)
Bachmann vs. Klobuchar (MN)
Begich vs. Palin (AK)
Lugar vs. Carson (IN)

Also, Kucinich vs. Schmidt would be the race of the century.
