The highly competitive US Senate Races in 2010 are in
1)AR(Lincoln-D)-a strong McCain State.
2)CO(Bennett-D)-a weak Obama State.
3)CT(Dodd-D)-a strong Obama State.
4)DE(OPEN-Kaufman-D)- a Strong Obama State.
5)FL(OPEN-LeMeuix-R)-a weak Obama State.
6)IL(OPEN-Burris-D)-a Strong Obama State.
7)KY(OPEN-Bunning-R)-a strong McCain State.
8)MO(OPEN-Bond-R)-a weak McCain State.
9)NV(Reid-D)-a strong Obama state.
10)NH(OPEN-Gregg-R)-a strong Obama state.
11)NY(Gillibrand-D)-a Strong Obama State.
12)NC(Burr-R)-a weak Obama state.
13)OH(OPEN-Voinovich-R)-a weak Obama state.
14)PA(Specter-D)-a strong Obama state.

President Obama will help Biden(DE),Giannoulias(IL),Reid(NV),Hodes(NH),Gillibrand(NY),and Specter or Sestak(PA) and too a certain degree Dodd(CT)-assuming he closes the gap against his GOP opponent.
Republicans are going to win Southern States such as FL(Crist/Rubio)KY(Grayson),and NC(Burr) and to a certain degree in AR. assuming she supports the filibuster on HCR.

Senate Races in CO,MO,and OH will be based on individual races. In MO- Carnahan-D who is a stronger candidate than Blunt-R is favored to win but the race will be close.  In CO and OH both sides have mediocre candidates. CO and OH will go down the wire.
