The outlook for Republicans in congressional races continues to just brighten and brighten, leaving the GOP easily on track to retake control of Congress, snip
why will Republicans do so well? Opposition to the stimulus package and Obamacare are the two key elements driving this election, snip
Heres how Morris sees seven key Senate races:
New York snip But Gillibrand has the advantage of beginning her ads two weeks ago. DioGuardi only has the money to start now, Morris says. I think that race will close quickly. snip
Delaware Republican Christine ODonnell has closed her gap behind Chris Coons to 11 points from 20 points two-three weeks ago.

They can slow down things, defund Obamacare, FIRE Pelosi, FIRE Reid, and do a lot more, but Obamacare still has the VETO Pen, so in 2012 we kick him out of office.
I can see VICTORY from my house!
Morris is moderate, and I’m a conservative, so Morris is not my hero. However, his analysis here is very good, imo.
Haa. Morris is ‘out of touch’
“He predicts that any poll that has a democrat ahead by 10 points or less is essentially a dead heat and he predicts any any poll that has Republicans behind by 7 or less will end up being a republican victory.”
I know in my own NY State, Paladino was behind in a poll just before the primary race, and he ended up winning 2 - 1! A number of years ago, Quinniapiac had John Faso 15 points behind in a Comptroller’s race, and while Faso lost, he only lost by 3%.
So many of the polls are liberal or liberal-leaning, imo, we have to know which ones we can trust.
Zogby tries to help Dems in key races, it appears obvious to me. I wonder if Zogby is still around. I don’t hear about Zogby so much lately.
Dick Morris is one of the smartest men around, but then again he supported Clinton, so maybe not so much. OTOH, he’s fun to listen to, unless he gets it wrong. Blah!
Someone else coined the phrase earlier today in a thread asking to come up with a term to describe the coming...well..TEANAMI on Nov. 2nd.
You don’t have to agree with Morris all the time, but read the article in the OP, and see if his logic makes sense. I thought it did on some of the candidates.
There's a whole lot of closing to do...it's a 21-25 - point gap right now.
“There’s a whole lot of closing to do...it’s a 21-25 - point gap right now.”
Yes, there is, but it can be done, especially if conservatives support him by volunteering, writing a letter to the editor, calling a local or national talks show, and/or contributing to his campaign.
I heard clips of the DioGuardi vs. Gillibrand debate on the news, and Gillibrand said she would attend a possible mosque breaking ceremony, and DioGuardi said he would NOT. Many NY voters would support DioGuardi on that, including NYC, but first they have to hear about it. That’s how calling a talk show would help.
