Senator Kit Bond is confident of one prediction in next year’s US Senate race: Plenty of money will be spent. Bond expects his fellow Republican, Jim Talent, to win re-election. But he acknowledges that Democrat Claire McCaskill is a tough opponent. Bond says Talent will raise enough money to run a good campaign. And he expects McCaskill to attract a ton of cash from national contributors interested in the Missouri race. Bond says the only advice he has given Talent is to serve Missourians well. He says if Talent does that, he will win re-election.
