No, they are appearing calm, there is a difference.. We are letting the media make us appear as though our position is weak and we are not projecting our poll numbers..

I think that the MSM also has decided to ignore states like mine where Republicans are on the offense, not defense.

Our incumbents are Dems, not Reps, and we can't wait to vote them out.

My niece is volunteering to hack the Diebold voting machines for Halliburton to ensure that the Republicans win in a landslide.

(The above is SARCASM, intended to cause DU and Kossacks to go completely stark raving bugf*ck crazy.)

In other words, we're letting the media march off the cliff?

"Not going down without a fight."

That's the spirit! I hear you on the borders; I'm frustrated on that one issue alone to the point I want to scream. A whole lot of Republicans deserve whatever they get. But you know who doesn't deserve it? The troops. The troops deserve better than Pelosi and her minions. If the Democrats take over, our efforts in Iraq will have been in vain. And THAT will happen over my dead body.

It's a straight "R" ticket for me. Because of the troops.

"Got an appointment for the limo to pick me up and they will serve coffee and danishs to us fat cat repubs on the way to vote."

You actually have to go and vote? You mean, like with the riff raff? Man, that's harsh.

They bring the voting machine right down to my yacht...

Ah yes, they "HAVE" to be optimistic. Another way of saying the GOP is still going to lose. I can't wait for Wednesday, November 8th. The Dems and the Drive by Media are going to be like Martians listening to Slim Whitman in Mars Attacks!

How many times do they let you vote? Do they let you into the black box secret hacker controls and change "D" to "R?"

Funny how all the MSM polls lately never talk about little things like this.

The MSM finds it far more satisfying to report on what they want to happen.

It's not "news", it's wishcasting. But what the hell...???

I can vote as many times as I want. I punch the 'R' buttons until my little stubby fingers get too tired. Then I let the 'help' punch 'R's until they get tired too.

Then we all laugh and get drunk...

"
Perhaps the biggest danger to Republicans in the wake of all these bad polls is that their volunteer base, so critical to victory in 2004, won't put their heart in their work. If volunteers become convinced that Republicans will lose control of Congress, what incentive do they have to work hard? "

The worse it looks, the more reason to work hard!
We have so much to lose if we dont keep the Congress.

Folks, it is absolutely BS to think that qualified and excellent Republicans will be tossed by inferior leftwing opponents ...
The Democrats are more leftwing and dangerous than ever!

Theres an article on Drudge that says Dean and Schumer are looking into borrowing money because they feel they are going to win.
