Torie, I used ro live in Hartford and Courtney has a reputation as a also ran because of all the State and local races he has lost. Simmons saved the Submarine base and has beaten Courtney before along with Sam Gjedenson. This will be a GOP hold.

In terms of the Colorado 7th, this was redistricted as a DEM seat in 2002 and Beuprez was an upset winner.

Survey USA has never been considered a top tier pollster anyways in the same league with Mason Dixon.

Survey USA is a good polling outfit, but MD is better. But Survey USA gets out more. CO-7 is a very marginal DEM district, and such districts when open, are tough for the GOP this year.

The one exception for the moment, might be NY-24, which seems to have a GOP candidate that is at least somewhat superior to the Dem (we need another poll; Zogby lives in that district by the way, and conducts his polling boilerroom out of there in a converted industrial warehouse beautiful downtown Utica, NY), and in the marginal GOP column, the open Wisconsin district. Having said that, this poll probably overstates the case, but it does suggest, something has happened in that campaign, or in Colorado, which has been viewed as a tough place for the GOP to be in general this year, although not of course as tough as Ohio. Nowhere is as tough as that, except oddly Indiana, where the numbers have been awful, maybe also due in part to an unpopular GOP incumbent governor.

Any thoughts MM?
