| Senate 2010: More Shocks on the Way?
Sabato, Larry J.
The Center for Politics, Crystal Ball, January 21, 2010, online edition
"With [the] upset by Republican Scott Brown in Massachusetts, the GOP gained more than just a 41st vote to disrupt the Obama agenda. As attention turns to the midterm elections in November, the Republican Party has strong momentum. A few months ago, even GOP leaders said that taking over the Senate was a pipe dream, and it is still not probable. But as some independents sour on the Democratic Party, the possibility for a GOP majority can no longer be dismissed out of hand. More likely, next year's Senate will still have a Democratic majority but be much more closely balanced between Democrats and Republicans."
