Actually, I think a House takeover could be done relatively easily with the right candidates.

Even 3 MA House seats could be in play, esp. Niki Tsongas’ seat.

Rothenberg is the guy who, shortly after the ‘08 elections, announced it would be “impossible” for the Republicans to retake the House. He’s about as credible as my hat.

In addition, we can no longer dismiss the possibility of a Republican wave so large that Democrats could lose their House majority”

We have been saying the GOP will take over the House in November, here on FR, for months. We know the anger that is sweeping the country against the unholy triumvirate of Reid/Pelosi/0bama.
right now, it's not just the ouse that can be taken from the Democrats, even the US enate is looking increasingly takeable, if we get the right candidates.

Since Obama is going to double-down on his leftist agenda, Rothenburg should double up the number of seats the GOP will capture.

Do we really want to win back the House and Senate? If we do, then of course we can gridlock DC and stop all of Obama’s insane legislation. However, if things go bad, everyone will blame the GOP because they “control Congress.”

I'd rather come just short of controlling both Houses. That way we can still gridlock Obama from 2010 to 2012, but not be blamed for his incompetence. That way when 2012 rolls around we take square aim at Obama and the Democrat-controlled Congress for their total failure.

40 seat gain will be childs play if Fauxbama, Pelosi, Reid (axis of evil) continue this damn the voter and the torpedos we are doing healthscare.

I don’t see Dems holding the house if they keep this up, but even if they hold the house, Pelosi will not be re-elected speaker.

28? Nah, I leaning close to retaking the House. The only reason I won’t say they will is Republicans have a history of screwing a sure thing.
