If we lose the Senate, it's because of Democrats defending red states (with the exception of Iowa). But Peters, Shaheen and even Hagan (in a purples state) are likely to win. Also look at the Gov. races. If Malloy, Quinn, Coakley, Parnell and Brownback lose, it'll because of problems unique to themselves. We are poised to win PA and ME.Crist might win in FL. Walker and Snyder are in big trouble. Blue/purple states. If this were a tidal wave, Franken would be in trouble but he's not. MD and OR would be more competitive. We're even shoring up our position in HI. So, to be honest, I don't see any tidal wave at all.
