Incumbent Dem under 50%... Lot of ‘em. The only incumbent GOP under 50% I know of is McConnell in KY
What did they say about Carr in Tennessee?
Before anyone gets too excited, any Pubbie up by 1 or 2 points is going to lose due to Dem vote fraud.
Too close to call is also going to the Democrat.
So unless we are talking 3-5% leads........
Savvy move, even though I think it stinks.
Yeah, right. With our current corrupt voting system, I’ll wait to see what President Romney has to say ...
Good. Then we can afford to knock of Cochran by not showing up.
I hate to be a wet blanket, but I’ll believe it when I see it, my gut still tells me the GOPe will find a way to screw this up or that the mass wave of illegals will guarantee permanent Democratic control.
I see AK as a must-win for the GOP, given the way the Dems won the seat last time.
I want Begich destroyed. As an example to others.
No way I’m believing polls of today. Most of the dolts in this country aren’t even paying attention to politics. So, come November, people will vote for the name they remember of who their friend said who to vote for.
Nunn never had a chance. Georgians are not going to elect any more leftests until the Mexican stampede wipes us off the map.
RCP just moved a “Leans Dem” in MI to a “toss up”.
As of now:
R - 46
D - 45
Tossup - 9

Tsunami coming
SURF’S UP........
I could have sworn last week the NY Slimes wrote an article stating there was no GOP momentum. This is a bad poll for democrats as I am sure they are oversampled.
Landmark Communications, which has done polling and business surveys in Georgia for 20 years, published a political poll the same day as CBS News.
Landmark says the Democrat, Nunn, leads the Republican, Perdue, by +4, which is consistent with all the polling done for the last six months.
If the Democrats can get Black voters (31%) to the polls in 2014, they can win that election.
I am also skeptical about the CBS poll in Michigan.
There have been 5 polls done there in the last month.
In four of them, the Democrat is between +3 and +9 over the Republican.
Finally, the author makes a serious error of omission about the Alaska election.
He says the Democrat is just up +2.
But, there are two Republican candidates who will face off in a primary in 3 weeks.
The Democrat is +12 against the Republican who is expected to win the primary.
Surely more Republican senators would flip to Democrat if the Republicans actually gained the majority.
It pays well and the media love you forever.
And Romney is gonna win in a landslide.
Get back to me the day after Election day.
If history is any guide, this November does bode well for the Dems. Midterm elections generally favor the Party out of power. This is especially pronounced in the 6th year of an incumbent administration. Consider the following:
In 1958 (6th year of the Eisenhower Administration) the Dems scored a massive victory in the midterm election.
In 1966 (6th year of the JFK-LBJ Administrations) the GOP scored a massive gain in the midterm election.
In 1974 (6th year of the Nixon-Ford Administrations) the Dems scored a massive victory in the midterm election.
In 1986 (6th year of the Reagan Administration) the Dems scored a massive victory in the midterm election taking back the US Senate.
1998 (6th year of the Clinton Administration) the GOP did not score such a major gain, but that’s because they had already done so in 1994 and they held on to their gains throughout the last six years of the Clinton Administration.
In 2006 (6th year of the Bush Administration) the Dems scored massive gains in the midterm election taking both the House and the US Senate.
Polls fluctuate all the time, but historic patterns remain relatively constant. The Dems have good reason to be sweating.
Sounds like a total rejection of obammy and his agenda.
A rational thoughtful person would change his agenda.
But this ass clown who is in so far over his head will double down.
We will in time recover from this moron and he will be exposed as a fraud and by far the worst ever.
