I suspect that the RATS and their running dogs in the media are trying mightily to keep some enthusiasm in their base.
Yes they are.
That's what the "kick A**" comments and the declaration of Gay and Lesbian Month are all about.
The enthusiasm factor on the left will determine whether we take the House or not IMO. I notice the White House is having a harder and harder time getting that excitement level to rise over there on DU.
They are trying to raise the bar for a Republican “victory.” Anything less than a turnover in the House and Senate will be trumpted as a “victory” for Obama and an “endorsement” of his policies.
