The Dems will have the edge as far as Clinton, should she make a go. If the GOP does manages to pick up the Senate Johnson and Kirk are gonners. And we have 50/50 chance elsewhere in MO, Pa and Fla to recapture the senate..

There is buyer's remorse on the part of Prez Obama, but I don't think the GOP has expanded outside the solid GOP south. The gov races in IL, MI, PA and FL and ME is proving that. The map is certainly in their favor but unless they can defeat Mary Landrieu, with Cassidy, who wasn't their best hope, they aren't picking up the senate.

As far as 2016, goes, it may very well repeat the 2014 gov cycle, IL, PA, and Wisc.

2016, we should net 4 seats. IL,WI, and PA as well, with  KY,LA or FL if there are open seats. Hopefully, 55-57  votes and 3 moderate females Murkowski, Ayotte, Collins will be the balance between a GOP fillibuster.

Murk and Collins are on record though on judges in attempt to break fillibuster. Let me say having dems in WI, IL and PA, as well as NH, CO and NV will ensure a Dem prez in 2016.

Brunner and Tim Ryan will fight it out in primary. I am hoping that this will be our 57th seat after Ayotte. Hopefully it will be competetive. We don't need OH, but game over if we succeed.
