What states switch hands in 2006?

I've never had that great of an opinion of Pataki's political prospects--I'm surprised he's still in office, personally.  You never know with Pataki...he just might pull it off...but against Spitzer, I doubt it.

So I think the only chance for the Republicans here is with Guiliani...if he isn't running for the Senate seat.

Although I do think there is a chance that Pataki might beat Hillary for the Senate seat (not a large one, but a chance nonetheless...and one that would put Pataki in a good position to run for President further down the line (2012, if the Democrats win)).  So potentially, running Rudy for Guvnor and Pataki for Senate might work.  Or it could backfire and fail miserably.

Is there any hope that in the event the Dems decide to run somebody against Jeffords that the vote splits so much that a Republican squeaks into the spot?

And now for a third consecutive post:

In regards Vorlon's rankings:

I agree on most of them...

Hillary can be unseated by Rudy easily, by Pataki maybe.

Is there any shot at taking Corzine's seat (considering he's running for Governor)?

Is Herb Kohl really that safe?  (Even if he doesn't retire)

I've heard a lot of talk from the Dems about Bill Frist's seat (as he is definitely retiring, as promised, after his second term)--no chance of Harold Ford or somebody else pulling it off?
