In a short race like this one, the Primary Winner is apt to be the guy with the better Name ID, and Raby doesn't have a whole lot. As to your question Blue Dot, considering how other Democrats are blasting Cramer for saying that he wanted the best person to succeed him, not necessarily the best Democrat, I'd say giving to a Republican brings him down a notch in the eyes of some Democrats.

He will be hard to beat, but I'm surprised he's giving up his successful business. I suspect he will take a huge pay cut. Steve has worked many campaigns in the background.
