The back-to-back cam paign trips a week before the Nov. 7 elections highlight two Georgia congressional races Republicans see among their best shots at upsetting incumbent Democrats. Burns, 57, of Sylvania faces a rematch with Democratic Rep. John Barrow, who defeated Burns in 2004 in eastern Georgia’s 12th District. Collins hopes to unseat Democratic Rep. Jim Marshall in the Bth District. “It’s going to be competi tive until the end,” Burns said of his race with Barrow. “This is a two-point race. If it’s a margin of three, four or more, that’s a landslide.” Surrounded by cotton and soybean fields in rural Bulloch County, the Georgia Southern campus is an ideal backdrop for Bush and Burns to fire up faithful con servatives. Bush received 64 percent of the vote in Bulloch County in 2004, and Burns spent 20 years at the 16,800-student university as a professor of information systems. “This could be the deter YOUR WEATHER TEAM!

It’s about being a good model for your chil dren and not using drugs in front of them,” Perdue said. “Not driving when your young infant son is in the car.
