GOP will pick up seats in the House and Senate, but Dems will retain a clear majority. The GOP simply isn't popular enough to pick up anything large sale, also while they do have opportunities in some conservative and GOP leaning districts, the Dems don't currently hold nearly as many of those seats as they did in 94.

it is still a little too soon to have a real feel, but if the election was today my guess: the Dems will keep both houses but the Rep will make serious gains. They might even take over the senate, not likely but possible.

That's the way I look at it too. I voted yes in the poll. But that's only because there wasn't an option to vote "not sure".

He has allot to prove to me before I can give him 100% unwavering support in 2012.

Than bein said, I will probably NEVER vote for a republican again. Not after what I've seen in during the last two years of politics.
