1. Not so good. 56% Chambliss/40% Martin.
I'm skeptical of Georgia's results overall.

Irregardless of what people think this is still red country.

6. Email from Saxby - "Liberal Invasion"
Here's an email from Saxby Chambliss that went out today entitled "Liberal Invasion":

"They're coming.

Right now, the liberal attack machine -- MoveOn.org, Big Labor and more -- is pouring millions of dollars into Georgia.

Why?

In 18 days, Georgians will head to the polls in our critical Senate runoff.

And these liberals see our Senate race as their last chance to hand Barack Obama a blank check in the U.S. Senate.

With all that hangs in the balance ... liberal-activist Supreme Court justices, massive tax hikes on families and small businesses, a backbreaking 25% cut to our military, censorship of conservative talk radio and outrageous paybacks to Big Labor bosses ...

... We must stop them.

The first $2,300 from any single individual's contribution shall go to Chambliss for Senate. The next $10,000 from any single individual's contribution shall go to the Georgia Republican Party. The next $28,500 from any single individual's contribution shall go to the National Republican Senatorial Committee. The final $27,000 from any single individual's contribution shall go to the Republican National Committee. "

10. If everyone who voted for Obama got to the polls, we'd win by a 40 point margin or more.
I dream, I dream.

11. Georgia Reptilican Robo Calls
Every day, I come home from work to find robo-messages from Georgia urging me to use my "blessed right" to vote for Chambliss. The thing is, I live in Virginia. I've never lived in Georgia, nor have been registered to vote there. I admit that as a kid, I sat in the back seat of the car as we drove through Georgia on our way to Florida on holiday. Maybe that's how they got me.

Anyway, I hope they're paying long distance tolls on all those calls.
