The political pundits don't know what they are talking about!

In the 2000 election, everyone said the Reps would maintain control of the Senate where they had a 55-45 majority.

What happened? - The Reps lost 5 senate seats and control of the senate to the shock of all the "talking heads".

Even more shocking was that Bush won the presidency without carrying California. Chew on that.

Turnout in 2000 was HUGE. Do you really think it will be this time? I just don't see Dems, like you, all fired up. I'm thinking extremely low turnout and some surprising gains by the GOP, in unusual places. Here in WA State, no run for Gov or either Senator, little being spent, no initiatives to fire up the libs....

I do think that the battle ground Senate states will have higher turnout and will be close races.
