Looks globally reasonable, except Colorado and Louisiana should probably have their ratings flipped.

It should improve as more polls are entered. Obviously Colorado shouldn't be lean R and Alaska shouldn't be Likely D. They were pretty accurate in the 2012 presidential election so I do trust them.

Their ratings towards Hagan, Gardner, Brown, and Grimes are probably a little generous, but reasonable on the whole.

They are starting kind of late this year. I remember that in 2006, they were already up by June. Then again, we have a president polling in the low 40s, not the mid 30s. This isn't a "now or never" election for the opposition like it was then.

If the Republicans are winning Colorado, they are winning in Louisiana.

I don't think they factored in the runoff, because Landrieu will certainly come in first in the jungle primary.
