NYT SPLASH THURSDAY: SENATE IN PLAY; DEM CHANCE FOR CONTROL IMPROVES
Wed Sep 27 2006 18:24:35

NEW YORK TIMES editors have set a Page One Splash on Thursday claiming: Democrats suddenly face a map with new and unexpected opportunities to regain control of the Senate!

"We are leading the paper with it," a newsroom sources tell the DRUDGE REPORT.

With less than six weeks to go before election day, races are so tight that they "could slip, in one direction or another, in a matter of days," reports Robin Toner.

In Virginia, a state that few expected to be seriously competitive, Republican Sen. George Allen "looks newly vulnerable after a series of controversies over his racial views, strategists in both parties agree."

In Tennessee, another Southern state long considered safely red, Rep. Harold Ford Jr. has run an aggressive campaign that has put that state seriously in play.

At the same time, Democratic challengers are either ahead or neck and neck in five states now held by the Republicans: Pennsylvania, Ohio, Montana, Rhode Island and Missouri.
