Beebe's pretty conservative for a Democrat on every issue, isn't he? Economic issues as well as social ones?
I can imagine he'd put Boozman's seat in play.
All things considered, I'd say he's more fiscally liberal than Blanche Lincoln but more conservative on social issues.
Beebe would probably have PM score very close to mine.
Well, if he was trailing by 1 in 2010, I'd imagine he'd be more competitive in a less hostile year. Boozman would now have the incumbency advantage though.
I still think Beebe would have the advantage because he would be a popular former governor with a good record versus a relatively low-profile incumbent without one.
