To illustrate the depth of GOP problems this year Daily Kos is reporting three new and important stories that are becoming all too typical of this election cycle.

WY-AL: NRCC swoops in to rescue Cubin; also CA-04 and CA-11
Chairman Governor Doctor Dean's fifty state strategy is paying off better than anybody ever could have predicted. What can one say when the GOP has to devote resources to defend "safe" seats? The answer is, "No seat is safe for the Repukes."

The Colorado Democratic surge
Two more Colorado races switch to "Leans Democratic" at CQ Politics. The GOP is bleeding to death this year.

No wonder GOP freaking out at Michael J. Fox ad
We're talking a significant swing (10%) to the Democrats solely from Michael J. Fox's stem-cell advertisement. This is on top of a possibly even larger swing from the Foley mess. (Reuters/Zogby poll indicating 22% swing from Foley--FACTBOX-Reuters/Zogby poll findings before U.S. election). If this is really true, there's going to be plenty of "close" races which are not going to be close on November 7th.

No wonder Stuart Rothenberg is saying How High the Wave? Don’t Just Think 1994; Think 1974, 1958, 1982

Stay the Course, DU! Work hard. We need to get all we deserve.

on edit: More concise title. Fact correct and citation to Foley poll.
