He has a news conference scheduled for 2pm.. I will be surprised if he does. He's the last one to let party officials talk him into resigning from a race. I've often thought that his term for himself, "a fighter", is one of the great understatements in a profession not known for them. If he does resign, the polls must be wicked indeed. Or something is yet to come out.

The NJ Democrats must really be leaning on Torricelli, if so. And yes, the big question is, who would replace him in the Senate race? BTW, yesterday's Asbury Park Press had some interesting info used to show the sky would not fall in if Torricelli was not elected - that is, his loss would not mean Democratic loss of the Senate, nor would his win mean that they kept control. The info came from this site: centerforpolitics.org According to Larry Sabato of the Univ. of Va, of 34 Senate races, 17 are competitive. Of the rest: 4 are toss-ups 5 lean Democrat 6 lean Republican (including NJ) 2 likely Republican Looks like a down to the wire finish. Anyone have any good links on the elections and their implications for foreign policy?
