Between Sabato, Cook and Rothenberg 71 GOP seats are in play

[Perky]

The list are completely identical except where they are placed on a continuum from Definite, likely, lean, tilt Dem on the one side, and tilt lean, likely republican on the other. Plus alot of tossups.

I am oncly including the Likely repub seats that are showing momentum towars the Dem.

The only Dem seats in play are two middle Georgia seats held by Marshall and Barrow. and they are considered lean dem to Toss-up

1. Josh Marshall wrote what I have been thinking, too

Why not 50, or a 100 seats? Why not ALL of them? How can Repubs have 150 or more safe seats with how they have been governing?

How badly does a one party rule have to be going to see that kind of movement? The founding fathers WOULD be horrified to see so many of the voters unwilling to vote differently, even just for one election. Yet that is where we are.

... is harboring a defeatist attitude. I have no use for such attitudes.
