Top 10 most likely GOP Senate pick-ups
humanevents.com ^

Posted on 07/09/2012 11:54:58 AM PDT by tsowellfan

Since the GOP is likely to lose Maine (Olympia Snowe’s seat) and have competitive races to defend seats in Massachusetts (Scott Brown) and Nevada (Dean Heller), they better hope to pickup five or six Democratic seats. Here are 10 seats currently held by the opposition that Republicans can win...

We have an outside chance of picking up Pennsylvania as well. Bob Casey, Jr. is as dumb as a box of rocks and banking on his Daddy’s famous name to drag him over the finish line.

Don’t under estimate Minnesota...

We’re not as blue as we use to be. Yes, Dayton is at the top. But the Republicans control our house and senate.

We just have to keep an eye on Mark Richie..

I think Stabenow is done but it has nothing at all to do with Romney. If anything Romney is probably a greater danger than help in that race.

Before we even start counting chickens we better learn which states/districts have their votes being counted by the Soros owned Spanish company. The number is significant and dangerous.

Gotta get my eyes adjusted.

Casey Jr is one of the enemy's best tricks ... right next to o'zero.

No one has seen him nor heard him, yet the name (like a dead rat still on the roll, still votin') is like any of a number of impregnated commercial jingles ... The two notes of "buy Mennon", or "I'd like to teach the world to sing" = Coke ... you get the idea.

Casey?, Yeah, sure .. he's a good guy .. and they pull the lever.

OK, We presently need to take 3 Seats away from the Dems to take over the Senate. Let’s say we lose Snowe’s seat in Maine and Heller’s seat in NV; and, I believe Scott Brown will hold his seat in MA. That means we need to pick up five other seats from the Dems. I am pretty confident that we will do that in Nebraska, Missouri, Montana, North Dakota and Florida. And, it is very possible that we will take New Mexico and Wisconsin, but will be close. And don’t forget....

We need a Pubbie in the Vice President’s Chair to break a tie since it could be 50/50 in the Senate.

Can one assume, cripplecreek, that you do NOT think Romney will carry his home state of Michigan?

Vacationing Mitt better get on the stick - and quick.

If he loses, we will lose any hope of the senate.

“Top 10 most likely GOP pick-up lines”...

This topic might make for a very funny thread.

Heller’s seat in NV

Heller should fare OK. I'm less worried about that one than Indiana. It was a great accomplishment to take down Lugar, but it makes that race a whole lot more competitive than before.

Raese in WV seems to be going with the Manchin equals Obama strategy. That’s a loser. Most folks around here aren’t going to vote for Obama. Manchin on the other hand has a family that’s been involved in politics and other than wasting money on state elections, didn’t have any major issues.

On the other hand there’s a grassroots issue that the tightly controlled WV GOP won’t touch. The educational system in the state has major problems. Manchin and the governor to there discredit were involved.

There’s a lot of pent up anger in the state over education. Raese, however, doesn’t seem to have a clue. It’s probably the only issue that Manchin can’t avoid.

Why in the hell doesn’t Manchin switch parties and become a Republican?
