Republicans will need to win 39 seats to take back the House. Democrats will win at least four Republican seats (the best opportunities include: LA-02, HI-01, IL-10, DE-AL, FL-25). As a result, the real number of seats Republicans will have to pick up to win a majority is at least 43. To win 43 seats, the NRCC would need to put 70 to 80 seats in play. The NRCC have simply not put that many Republicans seats in play and do not have the resources or caliber of candidates to do so.

so I guess it is all over except the counting of chads in Florida.

I know these guys need to argue for an optimistic outcome in November – it is their job after all. But this is what they come up with? Seriously?

A small and obvious point: Where is it written that you only win roughly half the seats in play? If this is indeed a nationalized wave election, the competitive races won’t be breaking down 50-50.

I think I find myself leaning more toward this guy (warning his writing contains some inappropriate language):

It's Like Mathematically Unpossible for Republicans to Win the House, or Something
