Re: Nov 2, "Tsunami" Midterm Election
No I'm talking about a historic turnover, not just Republicans winning the House. In 1994 the GOP gained 52 seats. I say a "tsunami" would be anything over that number. That would be a history making change. No party has had a change higher than 55 since 1932 when the Dems and FDR swept in on the heels of the Depression.
I'll be watching Fox, MSNBC, CNN, ABC.
Fox just called the Wisconsin Senate race for Johnson against RUSS FEINGOLD an 18 year veteran!
Another race in the House called for a Republican defeating a Democrat of 28 years!
I called it back when Obamacare passed against public sentiment that this Election Day would be a "bloodbath". In the words of Reverend Jeremiah Wright, it looks like Obama's healthcare chickens have come home to roost...
This election is a strong repudiation of Obama's agenda.

No, DA, I'm afraid this is more like Jimmy Carter headed to 1980 and Ronald Reagsn than Bill Clinton in 1994

Hasn't he ever heard of depends anyway?
I've listened more to local radio then the TV.

Matthews has been critical of Obama lately, guess he wanted to jump on the wave. Or else BO isn't leftist enough for him.

If Chris Christy chooses to run, he would win in a landslide. Not sure if he's interested.
The Tea Party isn't an Achilles Heel! They just won 5 Senate seats and 13 House races. They will keep the GOP leadership honest, but more experienced legislators that didn't get as much media attention won most of the Senate seats and House seats.
No, Obama will be the deal breaker come 2012. He is no Bill Clinton. He is an ideologue. He won't move to the center. He will continue to promote way too liberal policies, he will continue with an arrogant approach and he won't possess the charisma of Bubba.
Save your care package. Your gonna need it for yoself! The economy will in the end defeat BO come 2012. These people won't be able to stop spending (Dems and GOP).

What are you talking about? The economy is growing, albeit slowly, in part due to the stimulus bill he passed. By the time the next Presidential Election rolls around, there will be a strong track record of the economy getting better. That is going to help in 2012, not hurt.

Don't they have to get a majority vote from both the Senate and the House in order to repeal it? I don't see them getting that from the Senate.
Interesting article on it:
