REVIEWERRATING & REVIEW

The Republicans failed to recruit a top tier candidate to go up against Louisiana Sen. Mary Landrieu (D), as a result, she will likely be re-elected in November. She was barely elected in her first race back in 1996 and she won by only 1 percentage point against 2nd tier competition in 2002. This year she is running against State Treasurer John Kennedy, who until recently was regarded as a liberal Democrat, but is running as a Republican. In fact, in 2004 he ran for the Senate as a Democrat, but failed. The GOP will likely focus on this race, because it's their best chance at picking up a Senate seat in November. Louisiana trends Republican and they hope that a strong turnout of conservative voters will help the ticket downstream. I think Landrieu is in decent shape for re-election, but it isn't in the bag for her. She has yet to win a statewide contest by a convincing margin. That may change come this November however.

This seat could be the sole Democrat who loses in 2008, at least as the U. S. Senate is concerned. Mary Landrieu is in a very weak position.
