The Republicans are surging nationwide in the final days before the election and have closed the gap in a number of key races. Will it be enough for them to hold onto the House or Senate? Let's take a closer look at all of the battleground states.
I know you will all be shocked by this, but the Bush administration pushed the Iraqis to declare a verdict in the Saddam Hussein trial in order for a more favorable election result for the GOP.
