Sen. Richard Durbin...

...second-highest ranking Democrat in the Senate, has sent out a fundraising appeal reminding party donors that Republicans need to gain just four seats in the 2012 election to take control of the Senate. "Four seats," Durbin says. "That's all it would take to lose our Senate majority. I know: I count the votes."

Durbin calls the possibility of Republican victory a "nightmare scenario." Imagine this, he tells donors: "Senators who want to end Medicare writing health policy. Lawmakers who think global warming is a hoax chairing the environment committee. President Obama's Supreme Court nominees wouldn't stand a chance."
