Here's the breakdown on the more important races:

Arizona: Not a big race here anymore, leans Republican, and will be won by Kyl.

California: Feinstein will win, but I have no clue by how much. I'm keeping it in the 50% range since California is not a state known for large landslides with its huge popuation.

Connecticut: This race is another race that isn't so big, but I believe it will be close in the end. Liberman will win by a tight margin.

Delaware: Boring. Carper wins.

Florida: Nelson wins.

Indiana: Question, 80 or 90 percent?

Maine: Yet again, a question on percentages, 60 or 70 percent?

Maryland: This is the third closest race. In the end, Cardin will win with the Democratic leanings in the state.

Massachusetts: Dems win.

Michigan: Dems win.

Minnesota: Dems win.

Mississippi: When's the last time they polled here? This race could be close, but alas, I say Lott wins.

Missouri: The closest race out there. I have no clue who will win, and I will go with the candidate I prefer for this prediction.

Montana: A semi-close race. It looks like Tester should win, but a big Republican turnout is possible.

Nebraska: Nelson wins.

Nevada: Ensign wins.

New Jersey: The fourth closest race, I think Menendez will win, but its impossible to tell.

New York: Clinton wins.

North Dakota: Another place lacking polls. Conrad should win, but surprises are possible.

New Mexico: I missed this one, probably because it's not at all competitive.

Ohio: A close race, but I give it to the the Democrats.

Pennsylvania: No longer very competitive, the Dems are shoo-ins.

Rhode Island: A close race that will result in a win for Whitehouse.

Tennessee: I wish this race were closer. I want Ford to win, but the polls are not favoring him. This will still be a close race, but I'm giving it to the Republicans this time.

Texas: Republican win.

Utah: Republican win.

Vermont: Independent win. Bernie Sanders rules!

Virginia: A very close race, I believe this is my second closest race, and I have the feeling that Webb will win by a close margin.

Washington: My state! Maria Cantwell will win, and McGavick has so far had a declining campaign. This race has almost no ads anymore, probably because it's just not so competitive anymore.

West Virginia: Dems win.

Wisconsin: Dems win.

Wyoming: Thomas wins.

I think Ohio, Rhode Island, and New Jersey are probably leaners at this point. GOP is more concerned with protecting Allen and Talent.prediction Map

I still want to know if Dick Lugar is advocating a national sales tax. prediction Map

Who is he? Personally I would actually prefer a sales tax to an income tax.prediction Map
