Majette has been officially in the race for less than a week, but already she's gaining attention from the same kinds of voters who flocked to support Davis in Alabama: white, Jewish, moderate to liberal Democrats.

Meanwhile, McKinney has made a career of coddling Yassir Arafat, the Palestinians, and Islamic extremist groups in the U.S. and abroad, and it has paid off. The Atlanta Journal-Constitution recently reported that "a full third" of McKinney's campaign donations come from Arab-Americans and Islamic or Muslim groups.

McKinney has labeled Majette a "Republican," her code word for someone with white support. But that's a similar line Hilliard used against Artur Davis in Alabama. McKinney will have to do a lot better in coming weeks if she wants to hold on to her current job.

John McCain sent to Senate leaders Trent Lott and Tom Daschle earlier this week. McCain's letter promised to block confirmation of all Bush administration nominations unless Ellen Weintraub gets confirmed for a seat on the Federal Election Commission by early August. /p>
