...states that were barely blue in the election. Other Democratic senators who won fairly easily last election cycle are facing reelection in states that have been red states or swing states in the past two elections.

...have already made their mark in haute couture, mass-marketed, Latin-targeted lines are a recent development. Mexican singer-actress Thalia's line, Thalia Sodi, sells at 335 of Kmart's 1,500 stores in the U.S.; by July, the clothes will be available in every store.
