The constant question on people's minds - at least that small number of fanatics who pay attention to politics - is who will take control of the Senate after November 4th.

Actually, that is a trick question, but more on that later.

House of Representatives? Speaker Boehner will remain in power, assuming renegade Republicans don't knock him off. But no one, and I mean no one, thinks there is a chance that Democrats will retake the House.

Presidency? Check your copy of your pocket Constitution. The next presidential election is not until 2016, and we all know She Who Will Be Elected Next President (although Republicans and Bernie Sanders beg to differ).

So control of the Senate is where the action is at - although there are a number of key contests for Governor.

And the Senate winner is -- I will save my hard predictions for the Council for a Livable World election contest which will be launched in a couple of weeks. Now that's where the rubber meets the road.
