Well I give the obama supporters at least some credit for their usual outright denial that 18 senators are up on the chopping block (giggles)
The more the merrier!

I would really love to say "A" But that wont happen.Here in Vegas,we are laughing at the people giving Harry money,he is going down! Pure and simple!

Uh, did you not hear that Ted Kennedy died? I realize that he will be replaced with another Democrat.
Hopefully the remaining 17 will be voted out of office. I would love to add Dick Durbin, IL, to that list.

Harry Reid, Arlen Specter, are a lock to lose. Even if Teddy K. would come alive to help, it would not.
Barbara Boxer, Chris Dodd, Chuck Schumer, Russ Feingold have a 70% chance of losing.
The Rest are 50/50.
Luke check the polls and get back to us! And step away from the bong!

I think it is going to be the other way around, Republicans are going to lose more seats.

May I Tell you Who Stays and Who Goes
1. AR Blanche Lincoln Stays because she is a Blue Dog
2. CA Barbara Boxer Stays because she has a Strong Liberal Base
3. CO Michael Bennent Will win because he is a Good Commutator like Obama
4. CT Chris Dodd He will be Re_elected Barely though
5. DE Ted Kaufman Biden’s Old Seat He is on Good Terms with the people of Delaware
6. HI Daniel Inouye He will stay
7. IL Roland Burris Retiring His Seat could be taking over by Mark Kirk a Republican
8. IN Evan Bayh I see him winning a Well Liked Figure and Blue Dog
9. MD Barbara Mikulski she will be back
10. MA Ted Kennedy Passed away Replacement TBA
11. NV Harry Reid I see Him Losing but It will be a Close Race
12. NY Chuck Schumer Winning a Strong Support Base
13. NY3 Kirsten Gillibrand Will win If she is Careful and has Good Support Base
14. OR Ron Wyden He will be Re-Elected
15. PA Arlen Specter He will have Some Friction in 2010, But I say in the End He will be Holding on to His Seat
16. VT Patrick Leahy Vermont likes him and Trusts Him
17. WA Patty Murray She will be Re_elected I see her doing No Wrong
BTW I see Seats in Arizona, Ohio, New Hampshire, North Carolina, Alaska, Florida, and Missouri being Picked up by Democrats too I say they will still be in the Majority.
Sarah Palin and Glenn Beck might Do to be Hurting the Republicans
18. WI Russ Feingold He will win and Its Clear, He ain’t a Liberal or Conservative He is an Independent Man, he is on Great Term with the People in Wisconsin.

Although I would like to see "A" as the correct response but realistically it more like "C"
However, if the DEMS keep spending money we don’t have and they jam the Health Care "Reform" at us, then there’s a very good chance that "B" will be the correct answer
And if the new media every started reporting the truth as to what is going on in DC, especially with the Czars and the special interest groups like ACORN or the Apollo Group then the answer will be "A"
Regardless, I honestly believe it’s time to flush, all incumbents must go,

Delaware’s Ted Kaufman and Illinois’ Roland Burris are both caretakers, and will not be seeking election in 2010.
Hawaii’s Senator Daniel Inouye, who was first elected in 1962, will be 86 in 2010, and may opt not to seek re-election.
Recently appointed Senators Michael Bennet (Colorado) and Kirsten Gillibrand (New York) are potential wildcards, so, I, personally would not hesitate handicapping either of these races.
The only ones who I do see as vulnerable are: Nevada’s Harry Reid, Connecticut’s Chris Dodd, and the newly-minted Democrat, Arlen Specter, from Pennsylvania.
Judging from the winning percentages garnered by the other incumbents, I would put them all in the ’safe’ column:
In 2004, Blanche Lincoln received 56% of the vote
In 2004, Barbara Boxer received 58% of the vote
In 2004, Daniel Inouye received 76% of the vote
In 2004, Evan Bayh received 62% of the vote
In 2004, Barbara Mikulski received 65% of the vote
In 2004, Chuck Schumer received 71% of the vote
In 2004, Ron Wyden received 63% of the vote
In 2004, Patrick Leahy received 71% of the vote
In 2004, Patty Murray received 55% of the vote
In 2004, Russ Feingold received 55% of the vote
