I think PA-11 is gone, so I'll go with D+4. Some of those D+5's are possible though.

I voted greater than D+8 though I'm not entirely sure of that.

The way waves work -- rather than picking up the 40 closest seats, you usually pick off seat 1, seat 2, seat 3, seat 4, seat 6, seat 7, seat 9, seat 11, seat 24, etc.  There will be some tremendous upsets, and some surprising holds as well.

>D+8.  MA-04.

Fwank just loaned his campaign $200K.

D+6. AZ-07 Grijalva.

I don't know why, but I'm kind of feeling antsy that a senior democrat will go down unexpectedly.. I do think the best chance of that would be Dingell, D+13, MI-15. Don't know why but I'm scared to death of that race for some reason, even though I know there's no reason I should be.

I can't wrap my brain around a district with Newton, Brookline, Fall River, and New Bedford electing a Republican. Those four cities must be half the population of the district.

The very fact that it has been mentioned in mainstream circles as a possible shocker makes it less likely to be one. Probably. The same goes for Frank, I guess.
