Senate: Dems 52, Repukes 48
It's close enough to call it, at least for me. I'm betting the new
Senate will be comprised of 51 Democrats, one Independent (Lieberman will retain CT unless he makes a huge gaffe) and 48 Republipedoes. Not enough for cloture, but enough for committee control and power of subpoena. "Macacawitz" and Santorum are toast. Hernandez will carry NJ. Still fuzzy are Tennessee and Maryland. "Snoozer" Burns has also shown some gains in the last few days due to his Iraq war support on a televised debate fanning the flames of right wing fruitcakes, but it also may be a statistical anomaly; trending still favors Tester. Lieberman, who's had somewhat of a wake-up call regarding Bush Bird, will reliably vote Dem most of the time and will support committee subpoenę. Still too far out to call the House for the Dems by how many seats, but they'll take it in a walked-in run. Latest look at the polling trends tells me they'll take it by at least 35 seats, probably more. What's telling there is that NO incumbent Democrats are facing any real competition from Republipedoes. One right wing author today declared that the Democratic takeover of the House will completely obliterate any gains made during Newt the Galoot's "Contract Hit On America" coup in '94. He also said that the "christian nation" movement is all but dead. FLASH: Moribund campaigner Phil Angelides has pulled within single digits of AHHH-nuld probably due to positive campaign messeging. AHHHH-nuld is now under a 50% plurality...bad news for the "governator." Cards vs. Tigers: Who's going all the way? |

Cards vs. Tigers: Who's going all the way? suuuuure it is...just like Kerry by 2, Gore is going to win, etc. etc.... the pendulum is swinging back towards the Republicans already and you haven't seen Rove's shot at the buzzer... yet.... |

Burns (R-MT) has fallen off his recent "bubble" and is sinking again. Ford is now on top in Tennessee. It could go higher yet, folks! Meanwhile, De Wine (R-OH) and Santorum (R-PA) have lost their mother's milk funding from the RSCC and RNC, as they've been declared "sure losers" in their respective states. Last poll I saw released today shows Santorum losing by 13%. |
