The Race

The panel members on "Meet the Press" this morning, which couldn't be more conservative, are all saying Democrats should pick up 20 seats in the House. The consensus seems to be 6 Senate seats.

Could Russert try to get a moderate and a liberal to balance the panel?
John Harwood of the Wall Street Journal, David Broder, Robert Novak, and some other guy... Charlie Cook. Don't know Cook, but Jeez!

David Espo of the AP writes:
"Democrats hold solid leads for four of the six Republican seats they need to capture the Senate and about 10 of 15 required to win the House, according to officials in both parties. Numerous additional races remain highly competitive."
