Democratic control of the House is in jeopardy, and the party stands to lose at least a half-dozen seats in the Senate. "Unless something significant changes," political handicapper Charlie Cook wrote last month, Democrats "are headed toward the losses of the magnitude we saw in the midterm elections...
