DK just made McAdams one of their orange to blue candidates.

Daily Kos is thrilled to announce the latest - and perhaps the most unlikely - addition to Orange to Blue: Scott McAdams, the Democratic candidate for Senate in Alaska.

Let's acknowledge the elephant in the room right away. Scott McAdams has an uphill climb if he's going to win this seat. But before teabagging Social Security-hater Joe Miller shocked the Republican establishment by beating incumbent Senator and dynastic heir Lisa Murkowski in last month's primary, no one would have given McAdams any chance of being elected in November. Hell, the day after Miller's primary win, a DNC flack couldn't even remember McAdams' name on national TV. Today, though, he's definitely a player in the race - a race which has been rendered extremely volatile by Murkowski's petulant decision to launch a write-in effort.
