If you care about keeping activist judges off the Supreme Court, then making sure we elect good conservatives to the Senate is perhaps just as important as making sure we elect a good president.
There are seven races that I'm going to focus on -- because these seven races will be vitally important in determining the kind of judges that are both appointed -- and confirmed.
They are as follows:
1. Louisiana
Sen. Landrieu (D) versus State Treasurer John Kennedy (R) (This is one we can take).
2. New Hampshire
Sen. Sununu (R) versus former Gov. Shaheen (D) (rematch of 2002)
3. Colorado
Former Rep. Bob Schaffer (R) versus Rep. Mark Udall (D) (Check out this video ... and this one.
4. New Mexico
Either Rep. Wilson (R) or Rep. Pearce (R) versus Rep. Tom Udall (D)
5. Minnesota
Sen. Coleman (R) versus either Al Franken (D) or Mike Cerisi (D)
6. Oregon
Sen. Smith (R) versus Jeff Merkley (D) or Steve Novick (D)
7. Maine
Sen. Collins (R) versus Rep. Tom Allen (D)
