I wonder. Will a significant number of Republicans just not bother to vote?

"NOT EVEN CLOSE. Sorry, Senator. Let's Salvage What We Can."

"Result: the certain loss of John Warner's Senate seat in Virginia, the probable loss of Elizabeth Dole's in North Carolina, an unexpectedly tough fight for Saxby Chambliss's in Georgia -- and an apparent GOP surrender in Colorado, where it looks as if the National Republican Senatorial Committee has already pulled its ads from the air."

"In these last days before the vote, Republicans need to face some strategic realities. Our resources are limited, and our message is failing. We cannot fight on all fronts. We are cannibalizing races that we must win and probably can win in order to help a national campaign that is almost certainly lost. In these final 10 days, our goal should be: senators first."

I think this guy is gloomier than the reality. And I'll acknowledge that a "good citizen" votes, there are many other issues on the ballot, and so on. And I also suspect that many citizens vote mostly because they think they can impact "The Big One", the presidential race. If they think their vote is irrelevant they may stay home.
