Here's the AP's take on it:
WASHINGTON (AP) - Senator Jim Talent officially kicks off his
re-election campaign this weekend with an eight-city tour that
highlights his accomplishments in Congress.
Polls show the Missouri Republican in a tight race with state
auditor Claire McCaskill, his likely Democratic opponent.
Until now, Talent has not engaged McCaskill much, though she has
been actively campaigning around the state for months.
That is expected to change Friday, according to a Talent
spokesman. Talent will defend his record over the past four years
and stress the differences between him and McCaskill.
