No reason to apologize, as I was not flaming I promise. I see no optimism in your posts at all. Over confident? No confidence is what comes across in your posts.
I think we are positioned to keep both houses... I could be wrong... but you do not go into battle without confidence. Confidence builds more confidence. Everyone that is going to vote tomorrow will not supress their vote due to over confidence. Just the opposite may happen. If Republicans think their vote will not count because the dims are going to win, millions may NOT show up to vote.

What' the average percentage of people voting in mid-term elections? 35% or so?
If freepers and conservatives think we're going to squeek through tomorrow and they wake up and it's raining, or their kid has the sniffles or they have to work late and don't feel like waiting in line, they'll think to themselves "What's one more vote".
I'd rather they read my posts than yours and decide that one more vote IS important and can make a difference and decide to drag themselves to the polls no matter what.
We need broken glass Republicans, not people who think posting cheery "the tide is turning for Republicans" is the way to get people to the polls.
It's a matter of style and mine is different than yours, clearly. And talking to Republicans in town and on FR, I've see little reason for optimism, until last week's Kerry gaffe and Saddam's trial verdict. Whether that's enough time to turn things around or not, I don't know, and neither do you.
