CQ Politcs has changed the ratings for three more House races tonight, bringing today's total to five -- Every one of them positive for Democrats.

* In Fl-13, the race between GOPer Vern Buchanan and Dem Christine Jennings changed from "Republican Favored" to "Leans Republican":

Buchanan benefits from the Republican leanings of the Gulf Coast district, which Harris left open to run for the Senate. And Buchanan — a wealthy car dealer and longtime GOP fundraiser — has a big edge in campaign money over the Democratic nominee, former banker Christine Jennings.

But with the GOP facing a bad and worsening national political environment, and Buchanan still bruised from attacks by Republican primary opponents about his personal business practices, the times are anything but normal.

* In OH-13, the race between Democrat Betty Sutton and Republican Craig Fultin changed from "Leans Democratic" to "Democrat Favored":

...it has been an uphill climb for the GOP in the race for the 13th District seat that Ohio Democratic Rep. Sherrod Brown left open to run for the Senate.

The district, which links suburbs of Cleveland to part of Akron and that city’s suburbs, has a pronounced if not lopsided Democratic lean. The Democrats nominated a solid candidate of their own in former state Rep. Betty Sutton.

And Republicans’ hopes for a late campaign surge by Foltin have been hobbled by the darkening of an already cloudy national political environment for the Republican Party.

* In NY-19, the race between Dem John Hall and GOPer Sue W. Kelly changed from "Republican Favored" to "Leans Republican":

But the difficulties faced this year by the national Republican Party; the emergence of a strong and attention-grabbing Democratic challenger in John Hall, literally a former rock star; and now the acrid scandal involving resigned Florida Republican Rep. Mark Foley — to which Hall and fellow Democrats are trying to tie Kelly — have made this year’s race far more treacherous for the incumbent.
