NV(Heller-R vs Berkley-D)
The NV US Senate Race is going to be tough to predict. Unlike Warren(D-MA)- Berkley(D-NV) is running in a state that is highly competitive at the Presidential Level. and Unlike Baldwin(D-WI) who is going to face a generic Republican in the November General Election. Berkley-D is running against a Top Tier Republican opponent.

The control of the US Senate will depend on who wins the 2012 US Presidential Election. Obama/Biden-D wins Democrats control the US Senate-assuming King(I-ME)caucuses with the Democrats and Warren(D-MA)wins the Tossup MA US Senate Race against Brown(R-MA). In order for Democrats to keep majority in the US Senate with a President Romney,King(I-ME) caucusing with Republicans and Brown(R-MA) narrowly winning re-election against Warren(D-MA). 1)Democrats need to make sure Thompson(R-WI)loses the Republican nomination to a more conservative challenger-allowing Baldwin(D-WI)to win in the general election. There is a 50-50 chance of that happening. 2)Make Sure Both Vulnerable Democratic Incumbents -McCaskill(D-MO) and Tester(D-MT) win re-election. Tester(D-MT) will be easier for Democrats than McCaskill(D-MO). 3)Make Sure Democrats win Tossup US Senate Races in Red States- IN(Donnelly-D) and ND(Heitkamp-D). IN(Donnelly-D)is a easy win for Democrats than ND(Heitkamp-D). IN is also highly competitive at the Presidential and Govenor Level and Donnelly(D-IN) is a perfect fit. 4)What can Harry Reid(D-NV) do for Shelly Berkley(D-NV).
Warren(D-MA)gets elected due to Obama-D coattails. Emily's List needs to provide extra assistance to Baldwin(D-WI),Berkley(D-NV),Heitkamp(D-ND),and McCaskill(D-MO).
