The Washington Post's The Fix has this to say as we watch the live blues band tune up:
Minnesota's 1st District: When we met teacher Tim Walz (D) earlier this year we were impressed with his everyman pitch but saw him as a longshot to beat Rep. Gil Gutknecht (R). No longer. Walz and Gutknecht are tied in private polling and Republicans are worried that he may not come back to Congress next January. This was a seat on no one's radar screen at the start of the cycle and the type of seat Democrats will win if they are headed toward gains nationally of 25 or more.
