CT(Murphy-D benefits from Obama-D coattails and Shays-R is refusing to endorse McMahon-R). WA(Cantwell-D benefits from Obama-D coattails). NJ(Menendez-D benefits from Obama-D coattails.) MI(Stabenow-D has a weak GOP challenger-Hoekstra-R-who is more unpopular than Romney-R).(MI has a lot of Stabenow/Romney voters.) PA(Casey-D is very popular in PA- he outperforms Obama-D in Murtha Territory.) WV(Manchin-D is personally popular in Red WV) ME(King-I)wins a 3 way Race against a generic DEM and generic REP- likely to caucus with the Democrats. MN(Klobuchar-D is very popular in MN-likely to outperform Obama-D in the MN-1,MN-2,MN-3,MN-6,MN-7,and MN-8 CD.(Outside the St Paul/Minneapolis Area). CA(Feinstein-D),NY(Gillibrand-D),MD(Cardin-D),RI(Whitehouse-D),DE(Carper-D) and VT(Sanders-I) are safe. 45 Seats plus (OH,NM,WI,FL,VA,and MA).

MI(Assuming Levin-D retires- Gary Peters-D vs Candace Miller-R) MN(Franken-D vs either Pawlenty-R or Bachmann-R). MT(Assuming Baucus-D retires-Tester-D comeback- Schweitzer-D focuses on 2016. NC(Hagan-D will face Ellmers-R) SD(Johnson-D vs Rounds-R,Herseth-Sandlin-D vs Rounds-R,Johnson-D vs Noem-R,or Herseth Sandlin-D vs Noem) WV(Rockefeller-D vs Moore Capito-R)-Tossup.
