Encouraging news.

I’ve read that the Dems do have huge money to spend and will be able to run a lot of tv ads.

But I think the feeling in America is too strong and all the energy is on our side. Just the opposite of 2008.

Ok, so I’m confused. Whenever I see individual breakouts of specific races, it looks like a GOP landslide-—yet the weekly “congressional updates” we get only have the Republicans winning 34 seats as of today. Who’se right?

How is Alan Grayson fairing? I’d love to see him thrown out.

On every post and thread, my Tagline has said it all for over a year.

100+ seats.

A TSUNAMI is coming to wipe the Dems from Power.

I know a little bit about the PA races. The GOP guy in PA 10 has done virtually no campaigning, and has no money, and he’s up 15 points. Amazing. Mayor Lou Barletta is up 11 points in PA 11. That’s significant. Barletta ran against Kanjorski two years ago, and lost by 2 points I believe, in a Democratic tidal wave year. This should be his year.

The Democrats will pull out all the stops, saturate the airwaves with misleading and false advertising, but these are very good numbers at this stage.

It is hugely important not only to elect these Pub challengers but to elect Pub state legislators, guvs as well as Congressional incumbents. It will take a united front of GOP,Indies, Libertar., Reagan Dems, Teas to do this. Why? Because any vote for Dems from local to Federal offices gives them a jump on re-districting for the House in 2012. That would be a disaster because we all know Dems lie, cheat, lose ballots, deny military ballots, and make up ones for felons and illegals. That is the truth and it is outrageous that no one stops them. Poll watchers better in these upcoming Nov. elections.

NY 23? Was Hoffman running or has he dropped out of politics?

Booting Democrats out of office is only one step toward a return to sanity and bringing the federal government under control.

The problem is that when Republicans get elected they forget their lofty campaign rhetoric and go back to acting like democrats swilling at the pig trough.

If Republicans do win in November, they need to change their ways and return to governing like patriots, adults and honest citizens.

If they win but do not change, voters will be fed up with them by 2012 just as they were in 2006 and 2008.

Then democrats will be positioned to boot them out again and Obama will be assured of a second term.

I’m wary of polls screening likely voters. Remember PA-12. Burns was supposed to be ahead and the Dem won by 8%

This is a very desperate time in the history of our Republic. If November 2nd is not a total 70/30 wipeout, then the only alternative is Revolution II. I pray the people see the wisdom in a wipeout. . .

Will a complete takeover of Congress by the GOP also move Obama to the political middle, for the next two years? A moderate or neutral President Obama will be much more difficult to defeat on November ‘12. The 1994 election results ended up helping President Clinton win a second term.
