Via Goddard’s:
Brookings Institution scholar Thomas Mann “projects the Democrats to pickup 25-35 House seats, and four to five Senate seats with a chance to maybe hit six,” according to Thomas Schaller. “Alternatively, Mann said the chance of Democrats capturing the House are two in three, and put the capture of the Senate at 50:50. One lunch attendee whose very close friend happens to be a Republican pollster told him that his internal GOP numbers point to 26 House pickups and six Senate gains for the Democrats.”
Stu Rothenberg is a little more cautious, but he still predicts a pick up of 15-20 seats (just enough to flip the House).
Meanwhile, looks at this from Cruella DeVille:
Harris Says Failure to Elect of Christians Will Result in Legislative Sin: It almost appears that U.S. Representative Katherine Harris (R-FL) is trying to lose the Republican Senate primary. In addition to her connection to a convicted lobbyist, her failure to report gifts from that lobbyist, her staff turnover, her poor fundraising, and her erratic behavior, Harris is now questioning the wisdom of the separation of church and state, a bedrock of the American political system. Harris told the Florida Baptist Witness, the weekly journal of the Florida Baptist State Convention, that separation of church and state is a “lie we have been told” to keep religious people out of politics. As if that was not enough, Harris said “If you’re not electing Christians, then in essence you are going to legislate sin.”
