Here’s the 2010 outlook in the South.
Yes, I know it’s early.
Can you say: Senator-elect Mark Warner (D) of VIRGINIA?
And Chambliss's "runoff" in Georgia isn't exactly shaping up to be a cake-walk, either.
The self-destruction of the Republican party continues.
One fact that’s bound to kick in is that if the Democrats have a clear majority in congress, the South isn’t going to want to get left out of all the pork distribution.
They aren’t going to want to be known as a minority Republican region. Tht will open the gates for more supposedly “blue dog” Democrats, who will, however, mostly vote with the Democrat leadership on important issues.
After 2 years of Obama policies you think the country is still going to blame Republicans for everything? I bet you that in one year the voters will realize what they have done and, suddenly, the democrats will find themselves on the run.
All of the MSM, CNN, CBS, MSNBC, etc. is happily preparing for one party government. It will happen if their efforts are the decider.
Not gonna happen in “the solid south” dems. Republicans had a bad year, you’re not going to gain anymore in the south; and may loose in the west.
bump for later
lets be very clear here.....Saxby has already won his senate seat but not by over 50%....in other states or even the presidency, there would be no recount or revote...
BUT!
In 2012 there will be a reapportionment of House seats following the results of the 2010 census and the South will pick up lots of house seats at the expense of some blue states, especially NY, PA and CA. That will be good!
