The Democratic party is clearly dead at the Congressional level.

If Gingrich is the Republican nominee, he will be lucky to break 150 electoral votes, meaning that he will likely lose pretty much every state where there is a competitive or Democratic held Senate seat with the exception of Nebraska. 

If Gingrich is the nominee, Democrats should be able to hold all of their own Senate seats except for Nebraska and pick up Massachussetts and Nevada and maybe even Arizona. 

Never in history has a party lost more than three Senate seats while their candidate was winning reelection to the White House.

The Democrats can win a majority of the Senate seats up this year and fail to hold the Senate.

Most of the Democratic seats up are in states that Obama is likely to win.
