Rothenberg blew the 2000 and 2002 House control races and is not respected by the Right. I will by days ends give links to Stuies screw ups from Past elections.
I was just going to do that but since it's common knowledge I'll find something else to do.
Ping me when you post Rothenberg's screw-ups in 02,04. I want to see them.
In the meantime, finally, an article that does mention other possibilities:
