he's running against Heather Wilson, who is popular here. I'm so glad to see how far ahead he is. He has been my rep for years.

She lost to Udall when she ran for the senate seat vacated by Dominichi.. turns around and runs this time for the other senate seat vacated by Binghaman, only to loose to Hienrich... this time probably will pretty much be a career ender for her...thank god

going to be great having 2 progresssive Democratic Senators and as a bonus looks like we are going to get a Democratic Female to replace Martin's House seat...good year here in New Mexico

I hope we're not celebrating prematurely. But yes, Heinrich and Udall in the Senate---perfect.

And Michelle seems to be leading for Martin's seat, YEAH!!!

I think he was on a "Congress's Top 10 Best-looking list" last year.

Hopefully he will replace Scott Brown as the best-looking guy in the Senate.

He consistently has fam pics on his Facebook page. This one is from Democracy for New Mexico.

Can't get it to post, but you can see it at the link.

You can ask them about specific tips. Salaries aren't very high here, but neither is the cost of living.

were Rove's second tier of Senate targets, of which he hoped for at least one. Only Connecticut seems remotely achievable now.
