Congressional Predictions-2006

Senate: + 2 (PN and MT) Dem. I have a feeling repubs hold MO and RI (?). A MN pickup for R will offset any further losses.

House:+5-10 Dem. It is a sad day when the Senate is the people's body and the House is resistant to change. I am predicting a net change for Dems of less than 2.5 percent of the House. A massively unpopular president coupled with charges of corruption in the House would have caused a turbulent change back in the 1800s. Now it causes barely a blip despite the generic ballot being favored by 15-20 pts.
