Why are Dems celebrating Roberts going down? If these trends continue, Orman will caucus GOP keeping it in their hands anyway.
Why wouldn't they? Even if Republicans do win the Senate without Orman (which isn't anything close to a safe bet), it would still be better to have a moderate in the seat than a right winger. Same for the Murkowski/Miller race in Alaska in 2010.
Besides, don't forget that Orman could easily switch in the future, particularly if he could be the deciding vote again...say, after the 2016 elections.
