Prediction: U.S. Senate Elections

I predict that the Democratic Party will make a gain of seven in the Senate elections Tuesday. That would give the Democrats (along with their Independent allies) 58 seats in the next Senate, to 42 for the Republicans.

My predictions by state are:

Democrats:
Alaska -- Begich
Arkansas -- Pryor
Colorado -- Udall
Delaware -- Biden
Illinois -- Durbin
Iowa -- Harkin
Louisiana -- Landrieu
Massachusetts -- Kerry
Michigan -- Levin
Montana -- Baucus
New Hampshire -- Shaheen
New Jersey -- Lautenberg
New Mexico -- Udall
North Carolina -- Hagan
Oregon -- Merkley
Rhode Island -- Reed
South Dakota -- Johnson
Virginia -- Warner
West Virginia -- Rockefeller

Republicans:
Alabama -- Sessions
Georgia -- Chambliss
Idaho -- Risch
Kansas -- Roberts
Kentucky -- McConnell
Maine -- Collins
Minnesota -- Coleman
Mississippi -- Wicker
Mississippi -- Cochran
Nebraska -- Johanns
Oklahoma -- Inhofe
South Carolina -- Graham
Tennessee -- Alexander
Texas -- Cornyn
Wyoming -- Barrasso
Wyoming -- Enzi
