Reuters calls it for Republicans

[ProSense]

UPDATE 1-US Republicans poised to win House, gain in Senate

* A week before Nov. 2 election, Republicans in command

* Republican rout would be blow to Obama, topple Pelosi (Updates with Obama casting vote today)

[jkshaw]

1. Won't happen.

[totodeinhere]

15. Actually, you are both wrong.

You can't know for sure that it won't happen and Reuters can't know for sure that it will. Me, I'm out of the predictions game. I'll just wait until the election is over and see who wins.

[Kookaburra]

2. They're wrong.

[moondust]

3. Oh heck, it's over.

Might as well stay home out of the weather on election day.

[Kdillard]

4. We might as well not have an election then.

[wisteria]

5. Manipulation of people and their votes at work here-call it before all the votes have been cast. n/t

[DCKit]

6. And counted - then verified. n/t

[depakid]

16. Many American jurisdictions can no longer verify or audit results

Even if they wanted to.

[DCKit]

21. Horrifying, ain't it? n/t

[depakid]

24. Bizarre is more like it

In that it defies all reason.

7. I'll have to write to them and tell them to....

Hold on, one goddamn Minute! Damn...can't even wait ti election day? Sad.

[EC]

8. With all the lawyers the repubs have been hiring to watch the

vote and likely contest it (if it's a Dem win)I'm thinking they are scared and I think we've got it...but it'll be close...I think? :think:

[OHdem10]

9. Is it beginning to sound like the Media are trying to push GOP Wins

too hard. Psst, could they really be in trouble and everyone
is working double time trying to convince the world the GOP is
going to win. Kinda like MeThinks thou doth protest too much.

Me thinks the Media doth sound as if convincing themselves.

[CBHagman]

12. They've been treating a GOP takeover as a done deal.

It's been like that for months now, and The Washington Post sometimes runs multiple articles on the tea party on the same day (lead story for both the magazine and section A this past weekend...).

I think so-called reporters have had a problem for a long time in blurring the lines between opinion pieces and feature stories.

10. Hey aren't they foreigners.

[struggle4progress]

11. GOTV!

[golfguru]

13. Dewey defeats Truman

hahaha

[Dawson Leery]

14. In 2006, the corporate media said

the Democrats would be fortunate to win 10 house seats.

[Rosa Luxemburg]

17. Have Reuters fixed the voting machines?

[Kurovski]

18. I surely do wish I could get paid for my wishin' like Reuters does do.

[rasputin1952]

19. Reuter's is Wrong...

:hi:

[FBaggins]

20. It just helps to raise the expectations bar.

Who would have thought a few months ago that Republicans mightwin 45 seats and have some in the media call it underperforming?

1994 is starting to become the baseline assumption for many of these stories... rather than the high-end target.

[zulchzulu]

22. I guess we should all just pack up our marbles and go home

:puke:

[otohara]

23. Supressing Voters

this is pissing me off -
