for the GOP would be hard to overcome. I hope we are ready with a somewhat non DINO candidate to step in if Lugar is thrown under the bus.

(3,182 posts)There seems to be a lot more issues than just Teabagger vs. Lugar here. Lugar doesn't even have a home in his district anymore.....
I think the Orrin Hatch race is more about that test.
From this distance, it doesn't look like Lugar has a chance at surviving.

Donnelly who will be the Dem candidate is in the Dino category but does have a chance against Mourdoch. NO Dem stood a chance against Lugar, Dino or otherwise. A possibility to pick up this seat even with a "Dino" I see as an improvement over Lugar in the seat.
