    and 1 seat in the senate

    I'm in for $10

    The House Race...

    Democrats - 191

    Toss Ups - 38

    Republicans - 206

    2/3rds of the toss ups will break Republican.

    I don't want to take your money.

    I don't gamble. It's morally wrong.

    Seriously, I don't.

    The midterm election brought to you by... with the recent Supreme Court ruling earlier this year that freed big business to spend, unrestrained, the GOP has a 6-1 advantage over Dems in special interest spending:

    Helped by looser fundraising rules, about two dozen organizations intended to benefit Republicans are active this fall in House and Senate races; fewer than 10 are aimed at helping Democrats. Ad spending by GOP allies over the past two months has totaled nearly $30 million in 15 states with competitive Senate or House races; Democratic outside groups have spent less than $5 million. And even more money, perhaps from even more groups, is expected to roll out in the final month of the campaign.



    As far as odds go, there's a 65% percent chance of Republicans gaining control of the House.

    And in spite of California and Delaware breaking for Democrats, if Republicans can win in Connecticut and W. Virginia, then it's possible for Republicans to gain control the Senate too.
