Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away.
"Hating America is something best left to Mobius. He is an expert Yank hater.
He also hates Texans and Australians, he does diversify." ~ Braindead
A guide to all the Senate, House and Governors' races being contested this year.
“I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”
- John 13:34-35 (NRSV)
There's one that takes all the polls and shows a breakdown of who should win each state/district. I've seen it linked to dozens of times on poly, but can't find it! grrrr

Why can't you be a non-conformist just like everybody else?
It's no good (from an evolutionary point of view) to have the physique of Tarzan if you have the sex drive of a philosopher. -- Michael Ruse
The Nedaverse I can accept, but not the Berzaverse. There can only be so many alternate realities. -- Elok
I don't agree with a few of their classifications, on the other hand.
I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891
In the Senate, I believe there is a good chance that the GOP will not lose any seats, on a net basis. If anything close to this happens, it would be a huge failure of the Dems to take advantage of GOP weakness.
Basically, IMO, if the Dems don't take one or both chambers of congress, this election cycle will have been an abject failure for them.

For Senatorial and Gubernatorial races, I like pollster.com (some people here use electoral-vote.com, but this is much better IMO).
For House races, I like mydd.com, but keep in mind that they are a partisan Democratic site (which doesn't affect their predictions all that much - they are more conservative than the professionals - Charlie Cook, Stu Rothenberg, Craog Crawford, etc.). Mostly since they put the red meat (the polls) right up front.
There's also cqpoltics.com, but their predictions are a bit too conservative IMO.

I know that I don't have the best track record on electoral predictions, but that's rediculous. NJ is the only realistic GOP pickup atm.

“In a democracy, I realize you don’t need to talk to the top leader to know how the country feels. When I go to a dictatorship, I only have to talk to one person and that’s the dictator, because he speaks for all the people.” - Jimmy Carter
I wouldn't bet on the Virginia outcome. This one is very close indeed.
No matter where you go, there you are. - Buckaroo Banzai
