“Very popular” my rear end.

Those polls are LIES. If he wins, elections are now faked.

Even if we get to the magic number of 60, Boehner and his ilk will toss away the advantage, allowing the elected Liberal to run all over them again.

I have trouble believing that Boner will get another turn at Speaker. Add a few more Tea Partiers to the House and I seriously doubt that "Spineless John" will be the top choice.

How 'bout Allen West as Speaker? Any takers on that concept?

It's possible, but not probable..just about everything would have to fall into place..the political "perfect storm"

However, let me warm the cockles of your heart..just take a look at the list of Dems that are up in 2014..They have a big problem folks...even bigger than this year. I think you'll see the GOP with a 65 seat Senate majority after 2014.

Yes the Col. is a possibility. I don't know if you heard him a couple of weeks ago but Mark Levin came flat out and said Boenher and McConnell got to go as leadership.

As "we" get cranked up, I do not see how at somepoint our pressure doesn't make that a distinct possibility.

It`s fun to imagine what could be, but 60 for the GOP in 2012? No way. Net gains will be in the 3-5 range. They have a shot at a sixth if one of the dems is embroiled in a major scandal. The hope is to kick Harry Reid the Majority Leader position.

But 60?? Not going to happen.

Absolutely no way in this world will 0bama get less than 94% black vote. It has nothing to do with policy.. this is a racial pride issue. Besides, the dems will have them sufficiently scared of the GOP taking all their 0bama money.

Yes...

Many Dinosaurs are up if my memory is correct, Levin, Schumer, is it Boxer or Feinstein in CA that are up. Ditto that McCain, How about Gramnasty?

The bottom line may of the laggards that give us headaches should retire and work on their golf game...

"There’s no guarantee Lugar’s Tea Party challenger can win the general"

Absurd. Richard Mourdock has already won TWO statewide elections. The Democrat running is fleeing his House seat because he couldn't be reelected.

Feinstein is up for re-election this year. Levin and Graham will be up for re-election in 2014. Schumer, Boxer, and McCain will be up for re-election in 2016.
