Missed Indiana and Nebraska-2.  Getting Missouri right was basically luck.

I only got MO, IN and NE-2 wrong.  Even now looking at it, I still can't quite believe that in reality IN flipped while MO didn't.

My percentages were wrong in a lot of cases but I wouldn't say I was too far off-course.

Yeah, Indiana seemed to come out of nowhere, though i suppose that the NW would be in the Chicagoland market, and polls from 2007 did show generic Dem beating generic Rep.  I openly admit that Nebraska wasn't on my radar.
