This list and the CQPolitics list from my POST #102 ABOVE look like the best we have as basic references for the vulnerable Dems. Comments on this are welcomed.

CQ Politics leans left, so I am told, so their tallies of GOP gains may be more conservative than other websites.
Apparently, Greta has folks from CQ on her show and they dis the GOP and spout DEM talking points. That’s what I’ve read form other FReepers.
No problem posting what CQ has, but it would be good to balance it with a right leaning site. Something from Michael Barone would have integrity.
This looks like a conservative leaning site, but I don’t know anything about it - just found it. It seems more optimistic to me than CQ, but not overly so - http://www.electionprojection.com/index.php. It’s important to be realistic and hope, but not count on there being a huge swing. It may take a few election cycles to get the job done, but that’s okay. Democrats think and plan for the long term and we need to start doing it as well.
You’re getting great input for your chart. The input on the best candidates from FReepers is great, esp. when you get two or more agreeing on one candidate.
This is going to be a great resource.
Michael Barone is the best, at least IMHO. Does he have anything like the CQPolitics or ElectionProjection summaries? If so Google isn't spotting it easily. But if there is one it would be my choice.
In the meantime I will use the summaries that we have with some judgment.
At this point I have the following on the list that show up on CQPolitics as SAFE DEMOCRAT: FL-2, FL-20, MD-5, MI-1 Bart Stupak),NC-4, NJ-6 and WV-3.
I'm inclined to leave Bart Stupak on the list because I think the bucks are really going to flow in an attempt to punish for his turncoat Obamacare vote.
Opinions on all of this are welcomed.
