Where campaigns, congress and courts come together.

Will the GOP win any of the targeted Senate races?


They are in trouble in North Carolina….

9-29-08: Hagan 46, Dole 38 (Note: This poll also has Obama beating McCain by 2. Is it an outlier, or is McCain in trouble too?)

They are in trouble in Oregon…

9-26-08: Merkley 45, Smith 40

They are in trouble in Colorado…

9-23-08: Udall 48, Schaffer 40

They are in trouble in New Mexico…

9-22-08: Udall 57, Pearce 37

New Hampshire is still a toss-up with numbers going back and forth…

9-22-08: Shaheen 48, Sununu 44

It would be hard to believe that the indicted Ted Stevens is not in trouble in Alaska…

9-19-08: Begich 50, Stevens 44

And in Virginia, you can’t really call it a targeted race, but it is one that is switching from GOP to Dem….

9-26-08: Warner 60, Gilmore 34

The Democrats would love to win 10 Senate seats. This is a near unheard of feat, but one that would give them 60 seats. This would require 3 more seats. Where will they come from?

Well, Minnesota is an option. One recent poll shows that Kentucky is a possibility. Where will the third come from? Nebraska? Maine? South Carolina? Alabama? Tennessee? Kansas? Georgia? None of these seem too likely at this point.

And a final note: The Democrats have one seat in danger, in Louisiana.
