1. Predictions of this being a close race like in Kentucky, I don't

5. Doesn't look good

for Edwards. A Democrat is always better than Republican, but Edwards is barely a Democrat. Probably not a huge loss if Edwards loses. Both are conservative.

8. Almost all Republican counties are in

The 3 big Democratic counties are half in
