I'd have to go with Maine, which is pretty much Safe D if Snowe loses.

She'd run as an Independent and win, easily.

Probably Nevada, though it's Lean R for now according to Sabato.

Maine would definitely NOT be safe Democratic...lean at best. Why do so many people think Maine wouldn't elect a Republican other than Snowe or Collins?

I think Brown is safer than Heller, so I chose Nevada.

Massachusetts - Maine will not go Dem if Snowe wins the GOP primary. Brown will be vulnerable regardless (not saying he won't win, but on election day he won't be safe in any case).

Massachusetts by default. I love looking at that list and seeing only one seat that has real potential to swing at this point. Snowe isn't going to lose her primary.

Folks, the question clearly says "except Nevada", so why are you saying Nevada ?

Massachusetts, of those listed. After that, probably Maine and Utah. Republicans will be able to go heavily on the offensive in 2012.
