Add to the list, the Tom Harkin seat.
I have a hunch it will flip to the GOP.

As Rush pointed out, has anyone noticed there are no polls being done? Or at least very few. I have seen only ones from KS, KY (McBummell now up by 4), MN, and the Scott Brown one the media tried to hide showing him within 2. I can only conclude that many of these numbers look bad for the dems, so they are not being conducted yet or the numbers not being released.

I'd really like to see Franken go down in flames.

Begich may have just stepped in it.

I would just love it if the GOP re-took the Senate, and somehow did so without Lindsey Graham.

(Wishful thinking, yeah, I know.)

Mitch is the only GOP on the list.
Ditch the entire 10 and we will be just fine.

No disrespect intended—But if the GOP did capture the Senate, and held the House, what would change from the way things are today?

The democrats are dumping massive amounts of money into the Michigan senate race. Kinda funny for a race they’re sure they’ll win.

They just bought some $4.5 million in air time.

Yep, by not showing poll results when the dims steal their elections it won’t look as fishy as usual.

Not necessarily “wishful thinking”. There is a wealthy, well-known Indy who has entered the SC race and he’s giving Lindsey fits. He prolly won’t win, but he could throw the election to the Dem, Hutto.

It would. The 14 Gangsters would rear their ugly heads again.
They only seem to show up when the GOP has a senate majority.

Non taken.

Having both houses would limit lame duck "flexibility", at least to some extent.

That entire list — including Mitch — warms my heart. Here’s hoping every single one of them loses.

Hagan in NC is about as dumb as a fu cking fence post.

Warner in VA is 0-Tard’s lapdog.

How the good people of either state could put those jokes in the Senate to start with is beyond me.

Sadly, VA is my home state, and I spend alot of time down in NC, so I’m familiar with both...

GOP favored legislation wouldn't die on the vine in the Senate and would actually get to Obama's desk. He would actually have to either sign it or veto it, but he couldn't continue to argue that we have a "do nothing congress." Remember, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid got rid of the rules preventing a minorty from stalling votes in the Senate. We could use those rules against the Democrats in 2015 and 2016. We could inflict lots of damage on Democrats by passing popular legislation and having Obama veto much of it.

I think you are right. Bruce barley is an idiot. Joni Ernst is awesome!

I think the most important thing at stake will be the ability to block Pres. Ebola’s SCOTUS nominations.

Every single Senate Comittee would be chaired by a Republican. Ted Cruz might head one of those committees. No more Harry Reid sitting on House passed measures.
