Political whizkids on both sides of the ideological spectrum have one thing in common as voters head for the polling booths this week into next: they're all attempting to guess, or predict how many congressional seats the Republican Party will gain on election day.
Some are predicting a tsunami of 60 or more seats to the Republican Party, something that hasn't happened to either party since the GOP gained 72 seats in the 1938 mid-term election. While others are simply downplaying Republican hopes with a prediction of 45 or more seats. Which is frankly, offensive to the electorate at-large.
But what does history tell us?
Well, in 1994 when Clinton's extreme liberalism was soundly rejected, House Republicans gained 54 seats, and control of the House for the first time in four decades. And in the 1946 election, after close to fourteen consecutive years of Democratic control, Republicans were able to gain 55 seats on the had enough mantra.

> 70 in the House.
> 8 in the Senate.
According to the MSM, it will be a majority, but far, far short of expectations and it means that it really wasn’t a referendum on Obama, just voter angst over what that effing Bush and his oil buddies did to screw us all over.......
I wish I could share your enthusiasm considering the large amount of unrestrained democrat voter fraud that will be taking place.
111
I’ll risk saying 70 in the House and 9 in the Senate, but I think it might be even better.
I don’t know enough about ALL the individual races, but it will be more historic than 1994, where we picked up 52 seats.
70 and 10
Looks historic to me!
With voter fraud, I'd have to say you're right.
I have a list of 62 that are “HISTORY” and am still compiling it as I type this. Ten in the Senate sounds right because I think we will win every close race. I would not be surprise at getting to 85 in the house.
ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY SIX.
67 House
9 Senate
I can live with that
Voter fraud effects close elections, but you guys act like the entire election is hopeless!
100 in the House.
10 in the Senate.
Wish I could believe that.
Good luck
