the Republicans sure are working hard to keep us in there.

Immigration and Wall Street will be the GOP's "Waterloo"......

5. With the battle over the financial reform and over immigration bills
A jobs bill battle might come right before the election. Since it is certain that nothing will get the unemployment rate down before November, a pitched battle in October with the Obama administration and Democratic Congress Critters trying to get a jobs bill through while the Republican Party of NO obstructs it every step of the way could make a big difference.

2. I'm thinking that 2010...
may turn out to be the exception that proves the rule about incumbent midterm losses.

6. I don't buy it....I think the MSM and the right are playing their last
card.

They have lost the Latino vote for sure and their protection of Wall street is astonishing.

8. I agree, We do have many dumb voters
in this country--but not dumb enough to vote in Repubs again surely.

9. I think the Tea Party 24/7 on the news will backfire...
and guarantee Dems will get out and vote in the fall. So will the AZ bill, so will GOP obstructionism. The Right is making it clear just how creepy, out of touch, and fascism friendly they are. Not to mention racist.

We're still the same country that voted in the first Black president 18 months ago. The county cannot have changes that much!

11. It's ok - self-proclaimed "true progressives" will do their best to bring down Democrats.

else is bullshit.

13. I would like to
see some TV ads that show what the Dems are all about and what has been accomplished since President Obama took office. The have got to stop hiding their light under a basket. Information that would prove Fox and Limbaugh false might enlighten a lot of voters and encourage them to get out and vote.
