It's very early days, but the general trend is looking positive for Democrats in Congress. Looks like the Republicans were getting ahead of themselves when they dreamed about expanding their control in Washington last year. The political realignment of Texas may very well be the deciding factor for the Republicans if they hold on to the House. You can only get people to believe lies for so long and then you need to show results. Despite all of the spin, the results just are not there for the GOP.
"For Democrats, the challenge remains to translate that general discontent into specific victories. But the party's chances of winning control of the Senate have significantly improved in recent months, because of both the unexpected strength of Democratic candidates in several Bush strongholds and retirements by GOP incumbents." - LA Times
