And there's the 3rd seat the Democrats will now lose in the Senate unless the GOP does soemthing astronomically stupid.

Brian Schweitzer won't run for Max Baucus' seat.

Add in South Dakota's seat and West Virginia's seat...there's 3 of the 6 the GOP need.

Todd Akin is a mortal lock. -- nm - David Jul 13, 14:21 5
- See, the caveat in the astronomically stupid portion of my sentence? - Will Hunting Jul 13, 14:23 4
  - I think it's 25%. Right now, I expect democratic gains in the House and Senate. - David Jul 13, 14:46 3
    - I give this about a 25% chance only in the House. The Dems picking up seats in the Senate is about 0% imo. - Will Hunting Jul 13, 14:54 2
      - Nothing is gone right now. -- nm - David Jul 13, 15:16 1
        
        wait till the House kills immigration reform -- nm - charlie Jul 13, 15:17
do you think they could lose a few seats they hold now? its hard for me to get a sense of backlash against the FU congress and senate - zeitgeist Jul 13, 13:08 2
- They probably will. -- nm - the liioulu with cake Jul 13, 13:58
- I think those 3 seats are almost surely gone (unless the GOP nominates someone absurdly unqualified) - Will Hunting Jul 13, 13:11
But it is the GOP so..... -- nm - JD Jul 13, 13:06
