I'd like to see Chris Murphy as the next Senator from CT.

You dont want that.  Democrats dont want a lot of competitive House seats open in a year like 2010.  A Senate seat will be much easier to get back than a House seat. 

A Senate seat is about 100 times more valuable than 1 House seat.

There are something like 80 more Democrats in the House right now than Republicans, losing one seat doesn't make any difference.

The Senate is a whole other story with the Republicans trying to filibuster every piece of legislation, Democrats need to get to 62 or 63 Senators to get stuff passed. We can't afford to lose any seats in the Senate.
