From the looks of this, Nate Silver is anticipating a 4-5 seat pickup for the GOP. I still think it'll end up being worse than that (for the dems).

Still waiting for moby's prediction on how many US House/Senate seats the Dems are going to pick up this year.

Nate Silver is a big lib...probably some bias that goes along with his input data.

These don't seem unreasonable...the GOP gains may be muted by having several retiring Senators.

It's true he is a lib, but he does seem to try to ferret out bias. Also, looks like he's turning this into a career; good for him.
