Is anyone following the Senate races?  Looks like it will be tough for Democrats to recpature a majority of seats.  The retirement of incumbent Democrats in NC, SC, GA, and FL are going to  be hard to hang on to.  Breaux in LA seems to be demuring.  On the other hand IL and AK could flip GOP to Democrat.  There's always some surprises too.  Personally I hope Boxer is voted out - she's never been too popular in CA.
Predictions?  GOP net +2.

California Rep David Drier (R) has declined to run against Barbara Boxer for the Senate next year.  He was probably the strongest candidate the GOP could have fielded.  Her seat will probably stay in the Democrat column Sad

Is there any new news on the Oklahoma Senate race? I know that Nickels in retiring and the Democrats were promising to field a strong candidate.  Even though the state is a  GOP strong-hold (so much for Republicans being the party of the rich) the Democrats will be desperate to pick up this seat.

Plus the Dems will now have to spend money there that they wouldn't have had to win Breux running.  
I think this is what hurts the Democrats most- they HAVE TO hold this seat because the GOP has not won a Senate seat in LA since....1860s?
All the funding that could have been poured into Florida is out the window.
