Re:Predictions II

Item: 2005 Elections spell bad news for Bush, Right-Wing Republicans
Think of all potential combinations of results and this will be the gist of tomorrow headlines and "analyses." They (today's elections) in fact mean...practically nothing for the national picture.

Virginia may mean something to George Allen's national ambitions, however. A Kilgore loss comes with a diminishment of the junior senator's prestige. Then again, a Kaine win along with an exiting Democrat governor with high approval ratings makes Allen's past victories all the more impressive.
(See, Professor Sabato? I can do this too.)
