So Virginia and Florida and Indiana not going well
8:08 P.M. |Forecast Continues Drifting Toward G.O.P.
Although the Democrats are holding their own in Kentucky and -- in very early vote-counting, North Carolina -- their poor results so far in Indiana, Virginia and Florida have our House forecast moving toward the G.O.P. It now sees a 57-seat gain for the Republicans and Democratic chances of holding onto the House are down to 12 percent from 16 percent.

3. I think Michigan will go badly tonight.
The Repubs are expected to make gains in the state house, senate and take the governorship.

5. Florida was already republican and so
was Kentucky so although I wish we had won, there is no senate lost there. IN was tho and that's because Bayh had a chance to make a heck of a lot of money as being a lobbyist I bet.

8. New Hampshire looking dicey...
Both House seats might turn over. Too bad--I liked Carol Shea-Porter in 2006.

10. My congressman Rick Boucher has lost....
It wasn't rick that lost the votes, but Obama that lost it for him...

I really hate to see him lose, he's one of the few that knows Virginia doesn't end at Blacksburg.
