1. Jagla vs. Morgenthaler
Jagla is independent, sincere, and good on the issues. On the down side, he's not a really great public speaker (his thick Polish accent doesn't help) and he doesn't seem to be running much of a campaign.

Morgenthaler has impressive experience and credentials and comes off well in person. But she has Abu Ghraib baggage, and hasn't committed to good positions on a lot of issues. She's rumored to be a Republican who was recruited to run as a Democrat.

As things stand now I'm voting for Stan, but I have no illusions that he'll win the primary. To pull that off he would need support at the level that Christine Cegelis got, and that's clearly not happening this time around for a variety of reasons.
