A Republican wave? Maybe not, but nothing out there really says otherwise
Coach is Right ^ | 9/20/14 | Kevin "Coach" Collins

I’m so disgusted with the Republicans that I’m actually expecting nothing from the coming election. Nevertheless, there are a few nettlesome facts that kind of stand in the way of those who are ready to throw themselves over a cliff worrying about a Democrat comeback. In Iowa, for example, Joni Ernst is up 6 points in a race that is supposed to be “thisclose.”

In Colorado, Cory Gardiner is up 8 points and Democrat Governor John Hickenlooper is down by 10. The actually embattled Mary Landrieu is down 13 points (51/38) to Bill Cassidy in Louisiana and Scott Brown is tied at 48/48 with Jeanne Shaheen in New Hampshire. But the biggest “OMG!” for Democrats is the fact that Republican Michael Grimm–the guy who is facing trial on 20 federal counts–is up 4 points in the 11th CD in New York City.

Democrats are spending millions of dollars and even using pop-ups which say “Hey Grimm is under indictment!” Still Grimm is plus 4 in a Leftist college poll.

What should really worry Democrats is that demographically the district has so much in common with as many as 2 dozen additional Congressional districts across...

‘I’m so disgusted with the Republicans that I’m actually expecting nothing from the coming election.”

Hey, Coach! Take a look at my tag line. This scam between the Pubbies and Dems has been going on for over 100 years. If you want to be disgusted at somebody try yourself first for allowing yourself to be conned by these criminals in the District of Criminals.

It’s time to vote all of these collectivists out and never, ever let them into to the halls of power ever again. Only God-fearing conservatives need apply.

I’m going to vote in November. Other than that I’m going to devote my time to my wife and son.

Even in Hawaii some races are close.

The incumbent Dem Governor there lost his primary by 30 points.

Who is in charge of the prediction propaganda? Romney was projected to be the winner. The whole news system is a scam to manipulate people. Believe anything you want except the news media.

Then someone hasn’t been reading the polls (not the LV but RV models. LV has been proven to be wrong for several cycles). Then couple those polls with the GOPe who could lose any given race at any given time and I am beginning to wonder if we may even be in danger of losing the House.

Ditto. This upcoming election should be a slam dunk for the GOP. There is zero excuse for them not picking up at least 13 Dem Senate seats. Except that the Republicans have nothing to run on. They aren't anti-Amnesty. They aren't anti-ObamaCare. They aren't anti-deficit spending. And they do nothing to stop the Dems from stacking the courts with anti-Constitution leftists.

I have watched a GOP House continue to fund ObamaCare for four consecutive years, and have watched them eliminate the constraints of a deficit ceiling, granting a Democrat President the power to print up and spend however much money he wants without legislative oversight.

These Republicans suck.

And so you are going to make sure another socialist Senate is elected, and in 2016 another socialist Prez, and by the time they get done with our country, we will be next door to being Communist. Thanks a lot. If the Pubs lose, remind me to make sure I blame you for it. Geez.

Yeah, Obama will probably start bombing everything in sight in the Mideast, right before the election to look “strong” and save the Dems’ collective butts in the Midterms. Don’t think it would work, but with so many low information voters, you never know.

See my tag line. Voting Pub-E or Dem is voting for a collectivist Senate. Look at what we have now. The GOP-E has made it quite clear they stand with the Dems.
