Thanks for the link, that helps immensely. Glancing at it, I found a few surprises. Such as lackluster fundraising by Souder & Hostettler in IN. Mollohan in WV is tied with his GOP challenger, Wakim, who apparently is 2/3rds self-funding.
Souder has been floating on the edges of my radar screen because of those fundraising numbers. But that is about a 65% Bush district that Souder won with 69% in 2004 (against a nonentity, to be sure). So, although I give great deference to the money figures, and by that have routinely over the years predicted competitive races long before anyone else is talking about them, I just don't see how IN-03 becomes at all competitive.

A number of the ones now in Likely were ones I flagged months ago on the Watch List due to fundraising by challengers, and that have no been noted on the various pundit lists. Several of the ones now on the Watch List are there for that reason, combined with the partisan makeup of the various districts.
IN-03 just doesn't make the cut, even though it's way in the back of my mind.
