Following GOP Senators are up for reelection in 2006.
Allen, George - (R - VA) Burns, Conrad - (R - MT) Chafee, Lincoln - (R - RI) DeWine, Mike - (R - OH) Ensign, John - (R - NV) Frist, Bill - (R - TN) Hatch, Orrin - (R - UT) Hutchison, Kay - (R - TX) Kyl, Jon - (R - AZ) Lott, Trent - (R - MS) Lugar, Richard - (R - IN) Santorum, Rick - (R - PA) Snowe, Olympia - (R - ME) Talent, James - (R - MO) Thomas, Craig - (R - WY)
Chafee is a RINO who may switch party affiliation between now and 2006. Jeffords is already talking with him. Same with Snowe, though that's a real long shot. Frist has already formed a 2008 Presidential Exploratory Committee, so if we could field a strong candidate (Bredesen?) against him in 2006 we could put a damper on his chances. Hatch and Lugar both might not run for reelection, but getting a Dem elected in either IN or UT might be a tough sell. Santorum might be vulnerable in PA. Anyone know about any of the others?
Someone should also put together a list of GOP House members up in 2006. If we're to have any chance at the White House in 2008 we need to gain momentum in the 2006 midterms.
