Don't bet on N. Dakota, and forget about Indiana unless Evan Bayh ends up as somebody's presidential running mate.

SC, NC, SD, GA and NV all look very good. In the dark horse category: CA (Barbara Boxer), WA (Patty Murray) and WI (Feingold). And if Breaux takes the governorship, the GOP could pick up the LA Senate seat, provided there isn't more infighting.

Also, I wouldn't be surprised to see some more Dem retirements coming.
