Republicans' likely to gain in governor races

 Red States:

Cook Political Report Has More Good News for Republicans, Bad for Dems

...

 According to Cook Political Report, eight important gubernatorial races just shifted in the direction of the Republicans. Among the states with a shift in the Republican direction? Michigan, with the execrable Democratic Governor Gretchen Whitmer, queen of the pandemic restriction.

Wisconsin, Michigan, Nevada, Maine, New Mexico, South Carolina, Oregon, and Iowa all moved to the right. Michigan, Wisconsin, and Nevada, three pivotal battleground states, shifted from “Lean Democratic” to “Toss Up.” Each of those states has first-term Democratic incumbents — Govs. Gretchen Whitmer, Tony Evers, and Steve Sisolak, respectively. Whitmer and Evers incurred a lot of ire over their Wuhan coronavirus moves and that may work against them, come the election.

The other states that moved more in the Republican direction were Maine, New Mexico, Oregon, Iowa, and South Carolina. While the first three are still favoring the Democrats, they made positive moves to the right to “likely Democrat” from “solid Democrat” or from “likely Democrat” to “lean Democrat.” Meanwhile, Iowa and South Carolina have gone from likely Republican to solid Republican.

...

The polling also indicates gains for Republicans in Congressional races.  Democrats not seeking reelection is another tell.

29 % of companies say they are unlikely to keep insurance after Obamacare

Conn Carroll: A new survey of 368 midsize to large companies found that 29% of them are considering terminating their active employee health care plans when Obamacare is full implemented in 2014. Only 71% of employers surveyed said they did not expect to drop their health coverage, while 20% said they did not know and 9% said they were planning to exit. The latest survey, conducted by Towers Watson, echoes an ealier survey by McKinsey & Co. finding that 30% of private-sector employers were planning to drop their employee health insurance coverage by 2014. When the Congressional Budget Office crunched Obamacare's spending numbers, they estimated that only 7% of employees currently covered by employer-sponsored plans would lose their plans. ... This means the cost of the health care fiasco will be hundreds of billions more than estimated by the CBO and Congressional Democrat. It is also clear that Obama's pledge that you could keep your health care plan if you wanted t
