A sign of just how bad it is for the GOP now

This article really sums up just how bad things have gotten for the GOP in the race for control of the House of Representatives.

He noted that the NRCC paid for a poll in Idaho's 1st District race a few weeks back, then immediately started developing the TV commercial, launched an automated phone call campaign against Grant and flew in Republican National Committee Chairman Ken Mehlman to speak at a hastily arranged Boise rally for Sali.

That's right, the NRCC is being forced to spend money to save a seat in IDAHO!!!

President Bush beat Senator John Kerry by more than a two-to-one margin in 2004. In fact there are some counties in Idaho where Bush tallied over 80% of the vote! But even though Bush got almost 70% of the total votes in Idaho, the NRCC is struggling to win a congressional seat there. What a crazy year.
