What is she waiting for?

She's probably looking for money and volunteers.

If the GOP has any kind of good strategery this year, they will begin a media blitz right after the Palin/Biden debates. If I am not mistaken, you’re slightly under 30 days until the election at that point....that’s the time to strike.

If Sarah (sorry....Gov. Palin....but I just feel like she’s one of us) delivers, we’re going to get a nice surge with only 4 weeks left for the Communists to retort. It is at that point that you have to begin the ramp-up of rhetoric and distribute the cash to your congressional candidates. Doing anything this early is a waste in my opinion....we actually have managed to build some momentum in this race!

Dems. are in a position where they HAVE to spend money early (i.e. Altimarie running commercials, billboards, etc.) since they know they are in swing districts with a candidate that’s somewhat flaming out at the top of their ticket (I’m sure THAT’S RACIST to say that!!!). The seats they gained in 2006 are mostly swing seats...it’ll cost them more to defend them. 10% approval ratings means that all of these people are in some form of trouble.

I think the GOP’s best bet (aside from the pres. race of course) is to fight like mad for the House. Any gain on our part would be a decent coup and could lead to the ousting of Pelosi. Taking control would be a Godsend. That’s a stretch, but so was 1994 :-)!

I suspect the Senate is a loss, but if we can earn some additional political capital this election via gains in the House while maintaining the White House and a accepting some marginal losses in the Senate, that could spell the end of the Pelosi/Reid Empire.

And to think that I actually *miss* Daschle and Gephardt at this point as opposition leaders (sickening). Pelosi and Reid have been a disaster of epic proportions. In computer lingo....EPIC FAIL!
