Couple of items this morning that give you a pretty good snapshot of where things are in House elections:

The final iteration of The Hill 2010 Midterm Election poll anticipates a 50-seat gain in the House for Republicans. They need 39 seats to take the majority.

Meanwhile, indirectly confirming that number, the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee last night reported to the FEC that it was dropping another $21.6 million in 66 different House districts. That’s all for air time to try to stop the wave.

Taken together, it gives you a sense with less a week to go of the size of the map Democrats are playing defense on.
