With all the hoopla over Bush and Kerry, some of you may not have been paying close attention to the other races going on in this loaded US political season. I've read a good dozen or so Senate outlooks, and my blurry eyes and spinning brain kept getting lost in all the numbers and losing track of who, ultimately, was likely to control the Senate on November third. So I made my very own Senate outlook to figure it out (or add further confusion, depending on what you think of my predictions). The bad news is, we probably won't know who controls the Senate on November third. The good news, if you're a Democrat (or a person who loves one), is that my best guess at this point is that when the dust settles, Democrats will probably be in control by the very slimmest possible margin. Shock! But everyone knows the Dems have no chance of taking either house of Congress. I think everyone hasn't been paying attention. Read on for my rundown.

Having heard the blather or ranting about Red vs. Blue states for some time, I decided that I could check the curious general claim that "Red states are beneficiaries of tax revenue".  Having obtained the data here about year-by-year comparisons of the states, I obtained some results for 2004.  My intent is to identify trends without much partisan bias (BTW, I'm a Nader voter) in an American viewpoint that's not so much grey, but purple.
