Democrats fill a 70K seat stadium. Republicans can't even get their Senate members to show up. Granted Ted Stevens and Larry Craig have issues, especially Craig, but failing to show up for your own convention when you are a delegate speaks volumes. I know the media keeps saying it's a dead heat, and maybe it is, but there sure are a lot of people distancing themselves from the Republican brand.

The House Republican brand is so bad right now that if it were a dog food, they’d take it off the shelf. -- Tom Davis (R-Virginia)
