I am too afraid to get my hopes up, but boy this would really be great!! The National Journal is a conservative magazine.

Now there are seven
Democrats no longer have to run the table to take control of Senate

Despite the volatility of recent weeks, the overall outlook for the Senate has not changed much. The six Republican-held seats that were rated highly vulnerable three months ago remain in serious jeopardy. Democrats have only one seat in that category. Neither party holds many seats that could provide a second tier of opportunity for the other party; Republicans have one (Arizona), and Democrats have three (Maryland, Michigan, and Washington).

What has changed is Democrats' chances of picking up the all-important sixth seat that would give them a Senate majority. There are now seven GOP seats at risk. So, to take control, Democrats no longer have to run the table while holding all of their own seats. . . .
