The high unemployment rate at 9.0 made it very hard for the states of Dakotas and Arkansas to buck the party trend despite Dorgan being in office for so many yrs. Along with the fannie mae crisis and the high unemployment and the high popularity of Hoeven made it quite difficult for Dodd and Dorgan to remain in office.

In terms of the overall state of the economy Dorgan voted for the bailouts eventhough the GOP members at large in the House were against it. Stephanie Herseth voted against the bailouts and still lost.
