US Senate Race Heats Up

Polls have Bob Conley edging up to 41% to incumbent Lindsey Graham's 50%. This is a phenomenal amount of support given Conley's lack of funds (and Party support) compared with Graham incumbent warchest.

The "Ron Paul" Democrat had a good showing in Saturday night's ETV debate with Graham, which focused a lot on the current economic crisis. Graham voted for the $700B bailout package while Conley opposed it. Both men stood their ground on the issues and made rebuttals often, making it more of a debate than the two presidential debates.

Most, if not all, experts consider Graham will keep his seat. Voters will have the final say on Nov. 4.
