I think it's great that the Dems even have a shot at the Senate. A few months ago, they didn't. The (R)'s have had trouble passing odious Bush initiatives with the slim majority they have now. A few of them kick back. This can only improve whatever the result, as the Dems are bound to pick up some seat in the Senate.

Dems could definitely win the Senate, but it's sad to see that the GOP's racist and dishonst ads in Tennessee have hurt Ford. That means the GOP will be rewarded for racism. Though in Virginia, Macaca Allen won't be so lucky. Tennessee is about 5% more conservative than Virginia. And I guess "conservative" also means racist.

Democrats led Republican incumbents in Pennsylvania, Ohio, Missouri, Montana, Virginia and Rhode Island, but only the Rhode Island and Pennsylvania races were outside the polls' margin of error of plus or minus 4 percentage points. In VA, the last three polls have the Dem in the lead...a slim one.........same with MT. In MO, the last three polls show the GOPer in the lead.....again slim. PA, RI and OH, the Dem has been ahead the whole time. In TN, the GOPer has been ahead in the last three polls with roughly 3% undecided. BTW people are saying that Ford's campaign was one of the best run Dem campaigns. Republican Bob Corker opened a 10-point lead on Democratic Rep. Harold Ford (news, bio, voting record) in the race for a Republican open seat in Tennessee, the polls found. I don't know where they are getting these kind of poll numbers. I haven't seen a TN senatorial poll with that big a spread. It must a GOP internal poll.
