It is very interesting when Cook predicted that GOP will keep the House and expand the majority in 2002 and 2004, you had little of nothing to say..and now when Cook says that tide is turning against the GOP you rant and rave. If the Dems go into September with a 10-14 point lead GOP is toast..if it goes with a 6-8 point lead,it is breakeven, if it goes with a less than 5 point lead, meager gain. Right now, GOP is screwed!

If there is a coherent point in there, it is beyond my ability to filter sludge.

I credit Cook and link him all the time. My point, if you had passing marks in "reads with comprehension," was that the article's sole evidence of plunging GOP fortunes was Cook's WEEK OLD addition of two GOP-held House seats to "toss-up" status.

That's hardly the Apocalypse the article implies.

My criticism, if plain English can get through your tiny little moonbat brain, was of the author of the article, not of Cook.

So, if you have a point besides on the top of your head, now would be the time to clarify it.

But didn't the "Zen master" Cook predict a wipeout foe the GOP in 2004? Also, Media Whore Larry Sabato did the exact same thing. In 2002, most experts were calling for a "break even" election.

Go to realclearpolitics.com and look for Jay Cost's latest assessment of the races. Also, go to electionprojection.com. These guys and Rasmussen were better in 2002 and 2004 than Cook or Sabato. Right now, it's looking like a weakened GOP hold, according to the ones who actually know what they are doing.

Right you are Eddie, and I posted a link to Jay Cost's analysis in a separate post above.

My own prediction in January of this year was GOP -3 House, +1 Senate. In May, I revised that downward to -6 House, breakeven Senate. I stand by the revision, having seen nothing beyond smoke and hope to the contrary.

Notice that none of the Democratic posters will put numbers on their wild fantasies for November. They live in their crack-pipe dreams, imagining themselves winning big, but can't be specific.

Before they worry about grandeur, they should first address their delusions of adequacy.

My own predictions. GOP -16 House and -5 in the Senate, and yes, moonbat brains, Rasmussen now says the GOP will loose at least 2 seats in the Senate..contrary to the the illusion that Addison is in..breakeven...what a joke!!!

Rasmussen shows Cantwell and Stabenow as solid, and Santorum as lost. He only has Frist's TN seat as "leaning GOP". That's the joke.

He who laughs last, laughs best. Moonbat morons love to find the one poll whose results they like and assume it is the most accurate. That's why they seem to end up disappointed every fall.

Alex McClure cited results from four different national pollsters in the races he reviewed below.

I invite anyone who, like G. Chell above, has had the courage to post their predictions to be here with us on Election Night.

Jim,

You analysis is right on the money. I remember just 2 months ago that the media was gloating that Santorum was done (especially after that news conference he did talking about the chemical weapons that were found in Iraq). He was done by 15+ points. Now it's down to single digits and as we head to the fall and people come in from the beach and really start focusing, it's going to tighten more and I would not be surprised if Santorum wins by 3 or 4 points.

It's amazing to see moonbats like G. Shell continue to fall for the media's push polls that promote Democrats and make it seem like they are in control. You'd think at some point they'd realize that the media is really screwing them.

I'm an optimist so I don't think the GOP is going to lose many if any seats at all simply because this election is quickly swerving into one that is only about one issue: national security. And the GOP will win big on that one, particularly after the court ruling yesterday. I for one cannot wait to get to the polls and vote in November and I believe more and more of hte base is beginning to feel the same way.
