the former governor, george allen and former governor tim kaine to defeat tim webb?ncerned, the race in the country that starts off tied will probably end up tied. if i saw a poll the whole time that showed either one of them with more than a three-point lead i wouldn't believe it. this is going to be wire-to-wire and sloclosely linked to the president's race, also likely to be extremely close. >> talk about nevada in the southwest where so many contested battles are being wage pd one of the democrats best chances for picking up a senate seat next year, former president bill clinton already scheduled the campaign for shelly berkeley, running to unseat republican dean heller. what are the keys to this matchup going to be, charlie? >> turn out, probably again. and democrats were able to hold on. senator harry reid had horrible numbers in the mid-term election but able to get out a turbo charged democratic turnout in 2010. the question is, can they do that again in an election where the overall turnout will be a lot higher in a key presidential state? so that one's goin
