...political climate has since shifted in McKinney's favor. Redistricting in 2004 strengthened McKinney's standing by removing some of her antagonistic white constituency. And anti-Bush sentiment is high. Crossover voting in Georgia's open primary (which helped defeat McKinney in 2002) is likely to be smaller than usual because of a heated Republican fight for lieutenant governor between former Christian Coalition head Ralph Reed and Georgia Senator Casey Cagle.

Carney's politics pretty accurately reflect the views of most Iraq combat veterans running as Democrats. They are not so much antiwar as anti-Bush, furious about the lack of preparation for the war, the insufficient troop levels, the lousy equipment. "I served in Kosovo and had an up-armored humvee," says Jon Soltz, the director of the Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America political-action committee. "Then I served in Iraq...
