Maybe. I don't like handicapping the Senate, because it is such a wild card. The House is pretty much cast in stone. Any swing will be minimal, although my current prediction is that the GOP will pick up three seats barring retirement surprises. But who cares? I think I was off one in my count. The Dems only need 3 GOP votes to kill this, not 4, assuming Miller crosses over. I don't see Breaux crossing (I can't see him dumping the filibuster really). Thus, maybe it comes down to Collins and Nelson of Nebraska. The Pubbies do have 51 seats right? I am having a senior moment. Let's see, they won Missouri, Minnesota and Georgia, and lost Arkansas, which makes plus 2 from 49 to 51, with Miller making 52.
