Despite what I am hearing from different quarters and given my own Senate predictions, which of course could prove tremendously wrong, some exit polls are suggesting huge Democratic Party leads in key races.

I report them now not to endorse them. In fact, I don't trust the numbers -- but clearly, there is a political storm brewing again if there is such disparity between reported internal polling numbers, gallup numbers, and exit poll data.

But here are some numbers that are making the rounds:

Unconfirmed exit polls Dem Senate leads in VA (53-46), RI (53-46), PA (57-42), OH (57-43), NJ (53-45), MT (53-46) and MO (50-48). . .

This will all become much clearer soon.
