Uh-huh. And global cooling in general and perhaps the commencement of glaciation was believed to be imminent in the early 70's on Earth Day.
We'll see what happens in the Senate in November.
One thing for certain, November will be here before we know it. Charlie Cook has this to say in a Recent Cook Report:
"From my own e-mail inbox and perusing popular Web sites, I see many, both on the left and right, who refuse to believe any data that is critical or provides bad news for their side, but will then jump on the flimsiest poll numbers if they are favorable, as if sent down from the heavens on tablets of stone. I suppose it is selective perception -- people see or believe what they want, and discredit what they choose not to believe."
I don't know what's going to happen, but I sure don't feel cocky about the Senate. If Dems take either the Senate or the House, George Bush is going to have a living hell for the next two years.
