Norm Coleman (not everyone, but a lot of people have said Franken will win, Coleman's out, etc.), John Sununu (I still think he can win in NH), Jennifer Horn (running against Hodes in NH,she's running a good campaign, getting her message out, she has a chance), keith filiman (va-11 gop candidate, strong fundraiser, look for him to win in the general), anne northup (good fundraiser, good campaigner, plus yarmuth has a liberal voting record to defend, anne has a good chance to take back her seat),and pete olson (I think he'll be strong against lampson)  idk if melissa hart should be put in this category. There actually seem to be a lot of ppl here who think she can win.

duh...Musgrove, although the "everyone else throwing him aside" is an Atlas Forum-only phenomenon.

I don't like him, but I think Coleman is better-than-evens for being reelected at the moment. Otherwise, I disagree with all of the ones you've posted (except Olson, who I think you will find most people think will defeat Lampson).

Coleman has a good chance of holding on to his seat.
Sununu has absolutely no chance of holding on to his seat.

Tom Allen in Maine.  When it comes down to it, I think that if Obama is carrying the state with over 55% of the vote, Allen will be in a very strong position to overtake Collins in votes.  I just think that given that he is a heavyweight candidate in a nominally-Democratic state in 2008, he shouldn't be written off.  The polls have been moving in his direction as well.

Opposite to you, I think that Franken cannot be written off in Minnesota for the same reasons as Allen in Maine.  Obama will carry Minnesota, probably about 55%-43%.  I find it impossible to believe the Minnesotan electorate will go decisively for Obama and re-elect Coleman at the same time.  Unless Franken does something to monumentally damage himself, I think he will get in on the strength of Obama's coattails.

Nick Lampson, Frank Kratovil. Although I agree they're longshots, I wouldn't rule them out and I'd be happy if they won.

Musgrove. Not as much as Harry, but he certainly does have a chance.
