Quick post --
The news media has picked up on the election analysis of the 538 web site which is led by Nate Silver.
I have respect for Mr. Silver, and his work is far above the kind of analysis we used to get. However, in a year like this I wonder whether his 60% chance of a Republican take-over of the Senate holds any water now. With Mitch McConnell (Senate Republican leader) facing his toughest battle yet, and House Republicans shooting themselves in the foot over Obama lawsuits and immigration reform, who can predict Republican control of Congress in 2015 with any certainty?
