So, what's the guy to do??
Push the agenda, and blow ANY chance of keeping control of the Senate?
Which would mean that he couldn't get ANYTHING passed the last two years of his administration,and would likely mean an all-out war with the Congress.
Or, lose BOTH run-offs, and ask 48 Democrat Senators to "take one for the team," and head off into the minority.
I can just see the headline in the WaPo:
SECRET SERVICE ARRESTS HARRY REID FOR PUNCHING OBAMA IN THE NOSE
Georgina? /facepalm
Ken, I realize the polls here in GA are close. I wonder how accurate they are, though. Republicans are motivated in this election, & Dems are not. To what degree are the polls measuring that? Every time someone says they support Perdue or Nunn, is the next question, ‘How likely are you to vote?’? With no Obama on the ballot, I’d be surprised if the Dem turnout is that impressive. Of course there’s always voter fraud. So we shall see.
PS: Harry Reid and the Democratic Senators are pretty pathetic IMHO. The best they can claim is that ruinous Obamacare. And we should tell them how we FEEL about it in November!
Joe Manchin will be the most popular guy in Washington.
I can’t believe Georgia is in play for two leftist candidates whose only claim to fame is their dad of granddad.
carter and Nunn
It is ridiculous.
How could the GOP only win 5 senate seats?
I thought this was supposed to be a wave election.
3-4 seats will be all the GOPe will win. They don’t want a majority. They are running on nothing.
A budget resolution is needed by Dec 11 and Obama will want to fund his Illegal alien amnesty and don't forget the billion or so he owes the insurance companies.
Sounds like the Dem districts need more people with Ebola.
I can almost promise you that Georgia is going to a runoff. The GOP nothing burger Perdue is running one of the worst campaigns I have ever seen. He will be lucky if he gets to a runoff. Thank God for the Libertarian who is peeling off enough votes to hopefully keep Nunn under 50%.
The sad thing is that Nunn is also a nothing burger so if we had put up a decent candidate Nunn should not even be close.
I wouldn’t count on Kentucky. Conservatives have really gotten the message out that McConnell is a dangerous creep, and a freshman Democrat would be a lot less harmful to the nation. If there is one seat worth ceding, it is his.
While there are no guarantees about the next senate majority leader, McConnell has already announced his intent to surrender to the Democrats, so maybe his replacement will be smart enough to not surrender before the battle has even begun.
How DARE McConnell surrender to the Democrats. He should be ashamed of himself.
In LA, the conservative vote is split and Landrieu is polling in the low 40’s. If conservatives unite behind one candidate, Landrieu should be toast. But never underestimate the Rat GOTV effort.
Give Ebola, EV68, open border and the economy more in your face headlines and there won’t be a question LA and GA goes solidly GOP.
This makes me wonder when ABC’s Resurrection show will deal with the issue of the dead people wanting to vote.
Let’s call it the Super Bowl of Voter Fraud
If the GOP wins exactly 50 seats, watch for Angus King of Maine to emerge and try to cut a deal with the GOP where he would emerge as the leader of the Senate.
