Analysis

Can the Demcorats hit 60 seats? The answer is not really. Even including Joe Leiberman who really isn't a Democrat any more, they would most likely have to knock off Senator Saxby Chambliss of Georgia in a runoff election in December. Chambliss, however, has a lot of money at his disposal and won't have to deal with the crush of first time voters voting for Obama in December that he will on November 4th. However, 60 seats including Leiberman remians a distinct possibility.
