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.

Conditions are less than ideal, let us say, for President George W. Bush's last state of the union speech, to be delivered today. This is an administration that had precious little to boast about even before the economy began to nose-dive - a calamity that may not yet be plain in the figures but was certified by the Federal Reserve's dramatic interest rate cut last week. One wonders, how much worse can things get for this White House?

The College Board releases its annual Advanced Placement Report to the Nation next week. For us AP and IB dorks, it is the equivalent of the State of the Union address. No, delete that. The State of the Union is usually a bore. AP's Report to the Nation is more like the Academy Awards, for a small...
