Montana will be close, but I predict that Brown will win in the 2-3% margin.  Schwietzer is currently bogged down in a scandal that will seriously hurt his campaign: he recently bought two trucks from a dealer in Idaho, instead of Montana.  
Also Shweitzer is a control freak who was running his own campaign until just weeks before the primary when he hired the son of NBA commisioner David Stern, but his campaign manager has vitually no control over the campaign, with shweitzer and his brother in complete control

Well it's good to here from someone that knows Montana politics that we still have a chance at keeping the Governorship there. Welcome to the forum, RockiesFan.

Even with all of Shweitzer's oddities, however, he is a skilled politician (almost beat Sen Burns in '00)

Yeah I really can't believe that one. I think it was something like 51% - 48%. That is shocking a Montana incumbent Senator.

I voted Holden as well - he looks to be in a fair amount of trouble.

He has a very strong primary challenge, too. I think he'll win that but he'll be very weak in the general. Missouri will go GOP.

As for the WV race, I don't see it going GOP, either. The Dem and Republican are very similar so the voters (Dems are the majority in WV) will probably see no reason to change party control.
