2008 House Rankings

This is my first go at rating the House races this cycle.  Like 2006, there appear to be far more targets for the Democrats than the Republicans–despite the fact that the Dems now hold more seats and have a large freshman class.  These factors are offset by the rash of GOP retirements, the fact that the GOP won most of the close races in 2006, and the money disparities both between the DCCC and NRCC and between individual Dem and GOP candidates.

Unlike 2006, however, there are a sizable number of Dem seats on the list–mostly freshmen who took GOP seats last cycle.  As I have explained in the past, these rankings are based on my “vulnerability score”, a mathematical formula which takes into account objective measurres like an incumbent’s 2006 electoral performance and a district’s PVI and also subjective factors where I add or subtract points based on whether it is an open seat or a freshman race, whether there is a scandal issue, whether a divisive primary may hurt one side or the other, general candidate quality, fundraising and cash on hand, and even intangible “feel.”  This methodology served pretty welll in 2006.  

Here, I separate GOP-held and Dem-held seats, listing 80 GOP seats and 46 Dem seats.  For each, I give the PVI, ’06 results (unless iti is an open seat), candidates, and finance numbers through the end of ’07 (and beyond in some cases).  All finance figures are in thousands.  Because this is long enough, I do not provide commentary, but am willing to discuss each race in the comments.
