Well, I am assuming that the Democrats are keeping the Senate.

I'll grant the Senate races appear disappointing, but I suspect that's an illusion.

1. Recall that all the presidential polls have over-sampled Democrats -- understating the likely Romney vote. Many of the Senate polls are tantalizingly close -- just 1-2 pts. And I don't doubt the Senatorial polls are skewed in the same fashion.

2. Romney appears to be gathering momentum and could be on the verge of breaking out, on the cusp of a landslide. If that happens, his coattails will be sufficient to capture a majority of the Senate.

I'm guessing 53-54 seats -- not as many as I'd like, but better than the current pessimistic projections.

Thanks for your earlier post, because I went to do some research to check out the Senate races, and I had assumed earlier than we weren’t as competitive, but we are actually very competitive to take back the Senate.

It isn’t a sure thing, but it looks very probable that it can happen.

My gut tells me that we are going to win, but by how much, I am not sure.
