I imagine the Democrats will gain in both the House and Senate but it won't be at my state's expense. The only possible race here is between Pat Roberts and Jim Slattery (former House member about a decade or so ago). Roberts is too popular in the western half of the state for Slattery to win but he might make it kind of close. He should have waited until 2010 when Brownback's seat opens up he would have a chance then. I think he was afraid that Sebelius wouldn't get a spot in the Obama adminstration and would run for Brownback's seat when her current term of governor ends in the same year. Kansas elections are pretty predictable, Republicans always win the Senate (I don't think there has been a Democratic Senator in Kansas since I've been alive.). Republicans always win the 1st District (basically the western two third of the state). Democrats usually win the 3rd District (suburban Kansas City). Only the 2nd (Topeka and the rest of NE Kansas outside of the K.C. area) and the 4th (Wichita and SE Kansas) ever go back and forth between the parties.
