AK: A popular former governor versus an unpopular appointed senator? I'll take Knowles by 3%, even with the state voting overwhelmingly for Bush.
CO: They both have the name recognition, but Salazar has a record in government, and less baggage--CO soccer moms won't vote for a guy who supported lowering the drinking age. He'll win by 2%, helped out by a surprising Kerry performance in CO.
FL: A very close race, but I'll take Castor by 2%. Party loyalty will mean more than ethnic background in this race.
GA: Isakson, by about 15%.
IL: Obama, by about 45%.
KY: Bunning by 4%. Had his mental problems surfaced a bit earlier, he would have lost.
LA: John wins in the run-off. Vitter gets about 44% on election day, but the Dem's unite behind John for the run-off.
NC: Burr by 5%.
OK: Carson by <1%. I'm probably most biased about this race though, since I think Coburn is such a douche bag, therefore, my vision is clouded.
SC: Demint by 10%.
SD: Daschle, also by <1%.
Net gain of one for the Dems, resulting in a 50R-49D-1I Senate.
