Charlie Cook's assessment of the 2010 election landscape (albeit in 2009 when this was written):

“These numbers would suggest that absent any national tide or trend, Democrats might be expected to lose a dozen or so seats in the House and pick up a seat or two, possibly three, in the Senate. Again, this forecast presumes the lack of any dynamic that would push either party forward or back — essentially an “all politics is local” election.”

In other words, who cares what he thinks at this point? By the time his predictions, or anyone’s for that matter, have any substantive predictive value, it will be more obvious to everyone where things are headed.

You might follow that with the reality that the Republicans gained, what, 40+ seats in the House and 5-6 in the Senate? LOL, I forget now what the raw numbers were, but it would be useful to cite them here.
