Whoa! Where'd the 52 seat majority in 2002 come from?

I think this is terribly optimistic, but I like to think positively.
The trouble is that we lack strong candidates in key states. Take Lousiana for example.
Mary Landrieu won by a few votes, probably illegal, and is an intellectual lightweight in a state that voted heavily for Bush last time.
Right now, she's coasting to re-election. There's no excuse for that.
We are defending what would have been safe seats in Texas and Tennessee. We're defending Strom's and Jesse's seats this year without them in it.
I want to believe your scenario, but I would be thrilled if we can pick up even one or two seats this year.
What that mean for 2004 is anybody's guess. You're assuming a quick and popular victory in Iraq. I don't think that's a cakewalk. But if it is, your scenario is on the outer range of possibilities. It's what we should hope for.

Shelby, R-Alabama is a 'shoo-in' regardless of who runs against him. (You can take him off the 'defend' list.)

Ken, when I put you through my 50/50 BS filter, I still like what I read. Good stuff, very good stuff.
BTW, Buddy is NOT dead.

One possible fly in this ointment is the Republican Moderates' propensity to go into opposition when the party has a numerical minority. They then vote as Democrats.

I beg to differ about Wyden, he is a shoe-in.
