Anyone doing a Senate tracker with the latest polls?

1. Last time I checked the Senate is up for grabs

We are closer now to taking the Senate than I thought possible 6 months ago.

2. This guy (freeperly propagandist, but thorough) has GOP picking up 3 seats

He's always cherry picking polls for most GOP-favorable affect, so I am curious to see what the latest polls say.

3. This guy is off his rocker!

I see us picking up Kentucky, Keeping Florida, Keeping South Dakota & picking up Colorado.

4. If you are correct then it's a push... we don't gain anything.

That would be 4 "switch to GOP" and 4 "switch to DEM" and the rest "STAY" the same.

Modified prediction based on your comments:

(R) Alaska: R-Murkowski 45, D-Knowles 47 - Poll Results - SWITCHES TO DEM

5. Yeah, I'm doing senate spreadsheets including the latest polls

A good site is http://www.realclearpolitics.com/Senate.html They have most of the recent polls. It's helpful to click on the link at left of the poll and see a poll breakdown or an article, such as the latest Alaska poll and an analysis of the favorability ratings of Knowles and Murkowski.

Another site I use is http://www.fromtheroots.org/ That's a Democratic site and the polls may be partisan, but good links and info. Here are two new polls from that site that I have not seen on DU:
