Republicans Concerned About Census
Undercounting<http://politicalwire.com/archives/2010/04/05/republicans_concerned_about_census_undercounting.html>"Some
Republicans are worried that an anti-government surge among conservatives
will lead to lower participation in the U.S. census, which they fear could
reduce the number of Republican seats in Congress and state legislatures,"
the Wall Street
Journal<http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052702303450704575160151167429076.html?mg=com-wsj>
reports.

Perhaps that because, as
Politico<http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0410/35338.html> notes,
some prominent GOP commentators have threatened to pull out a "shotgun" to
scare away census workers.

GOP Should Be Worried About an Ensign
Indictment<http://politicalwire.com/archives/2010/04/05/gop_should_be_worried_about_an_ensign_indictment.html>Jon

looks
at the potential fallout -- both nationally and in Nevada -- from a possible
indictment of Sen. John Ensign (R-NV).

"If Ensign gets indicted, he will become a national and state nightmare for
the GOP. National Democrats will brandish him as a symbol of corruption
(they may anyhow) and local Democrats will wrap the junior senator around
the GOP Senate nominee's neck, especially because Sue Lowden and Danny
Tarkanian foolishly have said they would welcome his support. I wouldn't
even be surprised to see Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid directly go after
his pal to boost his sagging fortunes"
