Matter of Opinion

Senator resigns!

No, not Larry Craig. It's John Warner, a Republican from Virginia who just got back from Iraq. He's 80. Would be 88 at the end of another term.

His resignation puts another Senate seat into play. The Dems currently hold a 51-49 edge. What do you think will happen in 2008?

A. Republicans pick up Senate seats.
B. Democrats gain.
C. No change in numbers.
