The House is a toss up every 2 years, but the Senate leans different ways each year. 2012 leans Republican. Right now the score card is 51 D, 47 R and 2 I. There are 33 sets up for grabs, 21 D, 2 I and only 10 R.
Republicans:
1. Kyl - AZ - Retiring: AZ is a conservative state and this is a safe bet to stay Rin a GOP year.
2. Lugar - TN - Safely GOP
3. Olympia Snowe- Maine - Her biggest challenge will be in the primaries. If she wins then the seat is safely GOP. If the GOP foolishly turns to an O'Donnell type, this could be a loser. I think Snowe is probably safe.
4. Brown - MA - I don't think Brown was a fluke and he is type of Republican that can win in a blue state. Probably wins.
5. Wicker - Mississippi - Will say red whether they votes toss out this Porker or not.
6. Heller - NV - Is a toss up state.
7. Cocker - TN - Safe GOP
8. Hutchinson - TX - retiring, but this is TX safe GOP
9. Hatch - UT - GOP safe ground
10. Barasso - WY - Safe GOP State
Foresure GOP: 7 Mostly Likely GOP: 2 Toss up: 1
Independents:
1. Sanders - VT - VT loves there communist. Safe bet
2. Lieberman - CT - Liebs was a liberal all this life. CT is a lib state you do the math.
Foresure Blue: 2
Democrats:
1. Feinstein - CA - CA votes blue
2. Carper - DL - These are the morons that voted in time after time Biden. They are hopeless Libs
3. Nelson - FL - This state is red.
4. Akaka - HI - retiring, but this is blue safe
5. Carbin - MY - Safe Blue
6. Stabenow - MI - Toss up state, typically blue, but they are a hurting and might go blue
7. Klobucher - MN - Toss up state, Bachmann could turn it.
8. McCaskill - MO - State turning red
9. Tester - MT - Red state will go back to GOP
10. Nelson - NB - Red state will go back to GOP
11. Menendez - NJ -Maybe Christie could get a senate seat red? Probably not
12. Bingman - NM - Toss up state, but Reid nearly lost
13. Gillbrand - NY - Safe Blue
14. Conrad - ND - retiring - GOP winner
15. Sherrod Brown - OH - Toss up swing state
16. Casey Jr. - PA - Blue win
17. Whitehouse - RI - Blue Win
18. Webb - VA - retiring, red state will go red
19. Cantewell - WA blue state.
20. Manchin - WV - Red state win
21. Kohl - WS - retiring, popular Bucks owner retiring in a swing state, leans Red
Summary: GOP winner - 6; More Likely GOP: 4; Toss up - 4; Safe Blue - 9
Grand Summary:
The GOP could probably lose one seat, since retaining them are is tough. Brown is the best one to flip. MA is a blue state. put them at 46 - 52 -2
No Independents will flip and CT will be blue: 46 - 53 - 1
Democrats will lose 6: 52 - 47 - 1
Democrats will lose 3 off the 4 leaning GOP seats: 55 - 44 -1
Democrats will lose 2 of the 4 toss up: 57 - 42 - 1
Democrats will keep all the safe ones: 57 - 42 - 1
Democrats will still have the filbuster. Let's see how many of them are against it when they are using it at every turn to defeat every Republican bill? The hypocrisy will come to the front page on both sides!
