Another "safe" seat that was safe a week ago but now isn't is Liddy Dole's seat in North Carolina. All of a sudden she's neck and neck in the polls and this race wasn't ever supposed to be competitive. We will likely lose Virginia, Colorado, New Hampshire and New Mexico. Colorado is the only one I see us maybe winning, but that's going to be difficult given Obamarama at the top of the ticket (a plus for the Dems in CO).

Depending on the environment, we may lose Oregon, Minnesota (although Franken is quickly becoming a joke) and Alaska (where Ted Stevens is actually in big trouble). Storm clouds are brewing in Texas and North Carolina, although Cornyn has so much cash that I'm not too worried yet.

The one race that has so far failed to materialize is RINO Susan Collins' seat in Maine, where she has continued to lead by a wide margin despite a strong challenge.

Since LBJ, both TX senators have usually been recognized nationally, but this is not true of Cornyn, who is nearly an invisible senator. He is also a former attorney general and Texas Supreme Court justice, but most don’t know anything about him.
