HOLY SHIT! DEMS TO WIN SENATE?!

Am I wrong here, or do I count 6 net Senate wins for the Dems?

1. Missouri, where the Dem leads by 1.
2. Ohio, where brown is up by 6
3. Montana, up by a few
4. Tennessee, up by 3 if I recall
5. Pennsylvania, Casey by double digits
6. Rhode Island, Chaffee goes down

I have checked all the other close races, and guesse what?

Incumbent dems are holding onto their seats!

THAT IS 6 NET WINS! PUTTING THE SENATE AT 51 D, 49 R!

And if we take the House? WE WIN CONGRESS!

HOLY SHIT!

Now let's focus on Missouri, as that is the weakest area for Dems, with an average of tie, and +1D on the latest poll.

On a scary note, imagine how badly the Repubs will lobby Lieberman to switch sides. They will offer him anything to give them the Senate.

Perhaps that is why repubs are not so worried. Maybe they have already made a deal with Lieberman and he is their Manchurian Candidate?

Thoughts?

well look closer at these two - MI and TN (none / 0)


Missouri 
Rasmussen has McCaskel up by 1% currently. Earlier this month McCaskill was up by 3%

Taken as a whole- dead even tie.


Tennessee
Gallup had Ford up by 5 in its last poll.
Rasmussen also had Ford up by 5 in its last poll.
Reuters\Zogby has a tie
Middle Tn. State U has Corker by 1

ken, I am saying that if the election where held today, and the latest polls from each of the races where the final result, then Dems would take Congress.

That is by itself a miracle. Never have we been above 3 net wins in the senate, now we are at 6? Amazing!

2 weeks ago there was little hope of winning because of MO and TN, but now we got a shot, hell we are corrently winning!

I know I will enjoy this for all I can.

Well you're going to win Montana.

I have a hard time believing Tennessee will elect a black democrat especially with the last name Ford. Of course the polls are saying Ford will win, but I seriously doubt that will be what happens on election day.

The red wall that moves west starti ng in all of Eastern Tennessee and the Nashville suburbs in middle Tennessee will end up overpowering Blue Memphis- as always...

Don't worry, Ford will lose Tennessee.

Gore couldn't even win his own state and he was a white man.

Our brainwashing institutions (none / 0)
It's infuriating that our public education system has turned into brainwashing institutions who reprogram\brainwash our youth with liberal propoganda. THESE ARE TAX PAYER FUNDED not private schools. Fighting liberalism is seems impossible when they control our universities as they do. The only answer is to defund our education system as much as possible until these biases are fixed or eliminated. Schools should be places of patriotism and nationalism not we hate Bush machines.

Since when does hating bush have anything to do with loving democracy? He doesn't believe in the democratic system.

I think the author of that paste you posted plagiarized a Fidel Castro speech and just changed the names.

That was my own words.

The Democratic party is the party of terrorists and the party of foreign nationalists.

Yet loyalty to it is the main subject taught in our public schools

Oh so you are the author? Well it sounded very Communist to me.

In fact most of the incendiary statements you post about the dems sound exactly like old soviet union propaganda except the names are changed.

God you are so right! We really need to change the mandate of public schools. How about instead of No Child Left Behind we change it to No Child Left of You. I have been attending a public university now for the past three years and have had two professors that I would call Democrats. Kids my age are liberals because we don't have any money, not because we have been brainwashed. We go to school to learn a trade so one day we will hopefully make money. So really, most of us are here trying to become Wall Street Republicans.

You want to talk about brainwashing institutions? Here's one for you: Church!

 Also, Ford is going to win.

All L&S subjects are the teaching of liberalism- an indoctrination.

I have no problems with tax payer funded school for classes of value and classes that do not undermine out nation.

Acroso Fights Liberal Brainwashing! (none / 0)
Tired of fighting liberalism in public education system "that has turned into brainwashing institutions who reprogram\brainwash our youth with liberal propoganda" acroso doffs his/her Liberalism Brain Wave Reflector Hat that deflects the dreaded liberalism waves and replaces them with the dulcimer tones of Russ Limbaugh explaining his sex trips to the Dominican Republic

There are numerous studied that show people vote for people of the same color as they are.

That's why the Dem party has enslaved their African American base by giving them next to zero representation in state-wide offices like the U.S. senate.

Well there is Barrack Osama.

But this is just how things are.

So what you are really saying is that you are proud of being a narrow minded bigot that doesnt believe in America and would rather throw in with a facist that doesnt believe in Democracy?

No I'm saying both parties are scared to run non-white canidates because they always lose.

My statement was meant to reflect reality.

Why else do Democrats have 43 white\whitish senators while only having 1 black one when half of their base is made up of blacks?

current odds (none / 0)
Current odds are 70% chance GOP holds senate, 41% chance GOP holds house.  You can follow the odds at www.intrade.com, including the odds on specific races. 

Options contracts are much better guage than polls because people have real money riding on the outcome.  Greed is a powerful force.

<quote> IF Dems can manage to win in NJ, MI, MD </quote>

There is no way that Ben Cardin can lose in Maryland against Michael Steele, IF the Diebold machines aren't completely rigged. He should win by double digits. Steele is a black man with less than 20% support among blacks--for good reason.

What about Virginia?? Do you really think that George Macaca Allen will win? Chalk up Virginia for the Dems. 

by zenie on 10/09/2006 12:03:54 PM EST

Allen (none / 0)
NJ and MI are republican pickup oppoertunities so dems need to hold those seats jsut for the status quo. They are safe though.

Allen is up by 5.2% realclearpolitics average. This race seems to be well tied down for republicans regardless of what the press says. I suppose if dems pick up these other 6 seats, then we conclude it's a "wave" and maybe Allen will be out also? I doubt it though.

If this is for real or holds, then I imagine not only Allen but also Kyl in Arizona etc etc would lose.

That would be a 8 seat pick-up
