Charlie Cook's latest email states that some GOP House incumbents in Ohio are in a near panic mode. Here is one juicy quote:

"And while there are tentative signs that a playing field tilted against Republicans may be developing nationwide, the evidence and logic behind a much more significant threat for Republicans in Ohio is very strong. Pryce was quoted Monday in the Columbus Dispatch, speaking to the paper's editorial board saying, 'The political situation for Republicans both in Washington and especially in Ohio is just dreadful,' going on to say that, 'in my short political life, I've never seen it so dire.' "

Bush carried the Pryce district by about 1%. Columbus has trended quite decisively and rapidly to the Dems.

Well, if Pryce is anywhere near as old as I am she's either crazy or nuts. The republicans were out in the cold so long we grew fur.

I can understand their concern in Ohio, with those disasters as Gov and Senators. But what is his E-mail based on? I would imagine some over-emphasis (IMHO) on this most recent special election.

I don't buy the nationwide tilt against the GOP. Too early to say one way or the other for '06, and GOP fundraising has not shown any signs of weakness.
