Rep. Chris Cannon (R-UT) to lose in 2006

I'm making a prediction that in 2006, Rep. Chris Cannon (R-UT) will lose - and lose big - if fellow Republican John D. Jacob runs against him.

As previously discussed, last year Cannon faced off against Matt Throckmorton. Cannon won in the primary 58 to 42. He also spent a great deal of money: $600,000. They're both millionaires and Jacob could spend up to a million of his own money on this. So, it will be a bit more of a fair fight, and, in that case I expect Cannon to lose.

Gilchrist's humiliating loss? Almost all of Gilchrist's votes came at Campbell's expense, and Campbell and the GOP are being forced to spend money to defend a seat that is ordinarily a slam dunk. But that's what happens when you're George Bush and decide that those nasty, mean people who think we ought to have borders don't belong in your party.

I think we can all agree that if he does lose, it won't be as humiliating as Gilchrist's loss.

Non-"liberal" coverage of immigration, politics, media bias, multiculturalism, Los Angeles, California, privacy, and occasionally celebrities and wacky humor...
