Lorie, I got a phone call yesterday from the RNC requesting a donation. Turns out the person had their internal polling in front of them so I figured that info was worth the cost of my donation. Here's what I wrote on Hang Right Politics about the conversation, The Inside Story About the House.
From past experience I've learned to trust the internal polling of the party. Basically, they feel the Senate is safe. They identified the most vulnerable Representatives and that's contained in my post.
But as you indicated, we shouldn't get complacent about anything. We must go out and vote.

Ford has surrendered to BDS and accepted his insanity.

It's really rather amazing.
As Hugh Hewitt observed, has there ever been a more inept, bumbling campaign in the final weeks before a Senate election?

I have always felt uncomfortable about Ford. He seems like a very slick phony to me. I never fell under his spell as many Republicans have. Saw one interview last year before he was on the Senate ticket. The interviewer was sharp and actually asked him about his real votes in Congress after he was using the usual "moderate, religious guy" schtick as usual. He literally jumped and then recovered and did the usual politician trick of changing the subject. Truly a phony operator. I hope he loses.
