Saw the comments about the 2006 senate races on RealClearPolitics and it's more good news for Republican. I figure if we can pick up two from four Democrat first-termers: Mark Dayton of Minnesota, Debbie Stabenow of Michigan, Maria Cantwell of Washington, and Bill Nelson of Florida; then just as the way with Tom Dashle, the former minority leader, we can pick up one of the two popular Democratic senators in deep-red states: Ben Nelson of Nebraska and Kent Conrad of North Dakota; and losing none of ours or traded evenly with Democrats, we would have 58 majority. Surely we can find 2 Democrats who will think twice about filibustering a move to abolish the IRS.

City of Dallas Mayor Pro Tem John Loza has made it known that he is against the Blackwood petition and that there is a good chance the proposition will be defeated in the upcoming May election. He also made known of his intention to run for Dallas County Commissioner Court district 4 seat, which is current held by Republican Kenneth Mayfield in 2006 since he is term limited from serving on the Dallas City Council past May of 2005.

It is rather interesting that the Dallas County Young Democrats is circulating a petition calling for Dallas County Democratic Party Chairwoman Susan Hays to resign.
