My take... Looks like the 2011 cycle will almost certainly end up with with 2 Republicans and 2 Democrats. All 4 are red states. Jindal is very popular and is emphasizing Obama's unpopularity in LA. Bryant will almost definitely win MS; the Magnolia State's transition from Dixiecrat to Republican is complete. I sure hope Gene Taylor seeks a rematch in 2012... Steve Beshear is personally popular and state Democrats are in surprisingly good shape in KY; Dems control every statewide office except for Ag. Commissioner. Politically, WV is one of favorite states and I am proud to be of West Virginina heritage. Dixiecrats still dominate local and state politics. The winner of the Democratic primary, be it Tomblin or Tennant, will easily win. That said, Capito would be competitive should she run in 2012. In future elections, Democrats have a huge bench to draw from here; both chambers of the state legislature are at least 65% Democratic.

I am glad you came around to the thinking of many on MS.

Well if Taylor were running, it would be a different story.
