Politico.com is resembling Fox...

...more and more each day. First it was the mouthpiece for Dick Cheney. Today, in reporting on the retirements of Senators Byron Dorgan of North Dakota and Chris Dodd of Connecticut and Governor Bill Ritter of Colorado, it says:

The grim outlook for Democrats in the 2010 midterm elections just got a little worse.

(Never mind that Connecticut Attorney General Richard Blumenthal may actually have a better chance of retaining the seat for the Democrats.) And:

Democrats are now facing their bleakest election outlook in years—and the very real possibility the party will lose its 60-40 Senate supermajority after the November elections. On the House side, the prospect of heavy 20-30 seat losses is already looking increasingly likely.

Meanwhile, Intrade has The Democrats to control the House of Representatives after 2010 Congressional Elections at 65%. Take a deep breath, everybody.
