I am predicting that the GOP will win enough seats to retake the House of Representatives and will come close to securing 49 or 50 seats in the US Senate.
Every seat that the GOP picks up in the Senate makes it unlikely that ANYTHING will pass the Senate for the next 2 years.
Thus, I predict that we are in for at least 2 years of political gridlock in DC.
No major change from EITHER side of the aisle ... until after the 2012 Elections. |

That is why I call them Republi CAN'TS ... they keep saying we can't .. we can't ... rather than trying to say YES, WE CAN" and then doing it. |

Except the latest Quinnipiac Poll shows that the Tea Party is NOT seeming to help the State GOP ticket at all ... and Carl Paladino is NOT helping. If the Democratic state-wide slate polls 60+% of the vote as the polls show -- and Tonko polls 60+% .. this will boost Angelo Santabarbara and Susan Savage over the 50% to victory. |

I think there is a chance .. Paladino could do the IMPOSSIBLE .... get less than 50,000 votes on both the GOP line and the Conservative line --- that would be way cool. |

Wonder what job Harry Reid will be doing come January 3, 2011 ? I think he is all but finished in Nevada.
And West Virginia is poised to elect a Republican to the seat formerly held by Robert Byrd --- who would have thunk that was possible ???? |

They won't be around much longer unless they figure out a way to attract viewers and the cheer leading for the progressives in power won't do it. |

I have no problem with "progressives" --- at least how I define a "progressive".
I do have a problem with the SHARP left turn that the national Democratic Party has taken AND the SHARP right turn that the Republican Party has taken. The solution lies somewhere in the middle. |
