Based on Cook's ratings, if Democrats swept all the seats that are Lean R or better for them, they would win a net of 31 seats (32 pick-ups minus Graham's seat). Another 13 seats are listed by Cook as likely Republican. At the moment, Cook's ratings are much more favorable to Democrats than are other prognosticators, but House Democrats are still much better positioned than I thought they would be.
Also, I'm glad that Democrats are focusing on the suburbs. Winning the suburbs seems like pretty much the only way that the party could re-take the House, and I expect that Cruz or Trump would perform terribly in many suburban districts.
