Not if Carnahan loses! If that happens we will be in control on Nov. 6th :-)

Apparently not, if Jim Talent wins in MO. Technically, since the widder Carnahan was just an appointee, if Talent wins, he can be seated in the Senate IMMEDIATELY! That means if everything else stays the same, except for a Talent win, We'd STILL have one more Repub than Dems on Nov. 6th and could take back control of the Senate without having to wait until January!

Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong. I thought I read this on another FR thread the other day.
