Likely Outcome
CO--Republican Retention
IL--Democrat Takeover
KY--Republican Retention
GA--Republican Takeover
SC--Republican Takeover
AK--Republican Retention
SD--Republican Takeover (if Dasshole is shut down in court)
LA-- (if doesn't go to runoff--Republican Takeover
1 Democrat takeover vs 3 Republican Takeovers even if other races that I didn't account for win senate seats, there is still a net Republican gain of 3 senators. I'm a betting man, and I'll bet dollars to donuts that there will be at least an increase by 8 house seats for the GOP--and don't be surprised if the electoral vote count goes somewhere between 290 and 340 votes for Bush... PA and possibly MI to Kerry, but Ohio, Florida,Wisconsin,Minnesota and Iowa to Bush..
