The odds seem pretty good for the Republicans.

GOP will lose Maine. Hold Mass and NV. And pick up Nebraska, Wisconsin, Missouri, Montana, and North Dakota. Virginia and Florida will be very close. I think Dems win the others (Michigan, New Mexico, and CT).

RCP has the Senate as 47-45 Dems with eight tossups, and we need to win 6 of those to get 51.

RCP tossups, with incumbents listed:

FL: Nelson (D)
MA: Brown (R)
MO: McCaskill (D)
MT: Tester (D)
NV: Heller (R)
ND: Open (D)
VA: Open (D)
WI: Open (D)

Vote, vote, vote!

Vote, vote, vote!

How about just "Vote!"

We aren't Democrats after all.

McCaskill is dead in Mo. When Obamacare was upheld by the USSC it was the last nail in her coffin. She is just going through the motions now.

So by your analysis, you have the R’s at 51, the Dems at 47, with two tossups (VA, FL).

We need more than a 51-49 margin. The globalists can always get one to jump like Jumpin Jim Jeffords or Specter the Defector did.

I think Tester is slightly ahead in Montana. Romney will probably get by but he is not helping the Senate race. I will never vote for Romney and there are alot of folks up here like me..the question will be how many of us will get out and vote down ticket...

The GOP needs to make the public’s anger at Obamcare a key element of these races- if they do, I think their pick-ups may be even bigger. Now is the best (and maybe only realistic) time to repeal this monstrosity- this isn’t just any old election year.

It's interesting that they're calling the primary and the election for Steelman...

Should be a poll out soon on Steelman/Brunner/Akin vs. Ma. But Steelman had 12 point lead in last one-over Ma. Others less so.

Curious how Tester got elected in the first place? He rates “F” from Gun Owners of America! One has to really earn an”F.” He could not have done this over night. And in a western/pro-RKBA/pro-hunting state no less! I realize Burns had some legal/ethics questions (later tossed) I just never understood how Tester got elected in the first place...
