With the exception of one week after 9/11, has support for Congress ever been high?

Everyone hates other people's congress men and women but love their own.

This is simply wishful thinking by Dims. But it's great to see them get their hopes up, only to have them dashed on election day.

If the conventional wisdom is that Democrats will pick up six seats, I'll guess they will only pick up two by the time it all plays out.

OTOH, let one Dimocrat run on the platform of cutting taxes, and I'd vote for him.

Even so, the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, pointing to an aggressive candidate recruitment, is convinced Republicans are on the defensive this election cycle.

Yea they want to recruit military types that act like Republicans but bash Bush. Why not get the real thing.

Can anyone say what the DUmmie agenda is? Regaining power is NOT an AGENDA. They offer NOTHING.

Isn't this the same kind of talk we heard in 2002? Party of the President in office never picks up seats at a mid-term election...never say never, LOL.

Democratic strategists and Stuart Rothenberg predict House Democrats will make significant gains, six seats or more, but probably not enough to capture the chamber.

Same song, 4th verse. They sing this every election cycle. Problem is they are basing this on fraudlent polling data that polled everyone over 18 and added 13% to the Democrat respondents. Did NOT poll "Likely Voters". Gas prices dropped $.50 in the last week see if they are singing this same tune in Oct.

Congress made the mistake of piling on the pork instead of balancing the budget. A lot of them are going to be shown the door because of that.

"Democratic strategists and Stuart Rothenberg predict House Democrats will make significant gains, six seats or more, but probably not enough to capture the chamber."

Actually, with every Democratic member of Congress, working in concert with the MSM, committed to accomplishing NOTHING other than the destruction of the President specifically and Republicans is general, those sorts of gains sound rather pathetic.

Factor in the fact that there were similar projections leading up to the last midterm elections, and they turned out to be pur wishful thinking, and the Democrats look like the blatant losers they are.

A growing chorus of pundits and Democratic strategists point to poll numbers, such as this week's by Newsweek, which says 38% of registered voters would vote for a Republican if congressional elections were today.

Only problem is that elections are not today.

Six seats gained in an off-year election, and that's significant? These guys know less about American political history than my 3 year old. Nathan's a pretty smart kid, but he's still working on writing his letters properly. At least he knows who President Bush is when he's shown on TV.

These guys are killin' me--I'm going to send them a bill for a new keyboard and a monitor.

Louisiana Democrats had better watch out, lest their constituents remain in Texas, and other parts. At the employment agency that I work at, we've filled several positions for NOLA residents, sharp/hard-working people all. A few months in the Metroplex, and I guarantee that 80% won't be going back. Especially when they see that no state income tax is withheld from their checks.

Even so, the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, pointing to an aggressive candidate recruitment...

Some reports on Democratic candidate recruitment in the Post-Katrina era:

"Last week, Las Vegas attorney Stan Hunterton announced he wasn't going to challenge [U.S. Rep. Jon] Porter, a Republican in his second term. ... Democrats already have been rejected by weatherman Nate Tannenbaum, and who knows which other television personalities Sen. Harry Reid has tapped this time." (Las Vegas Review-Journal, 9/12/05)

Bucks County businesswoman Robin Wiessmann today announced that she would not seek the Democratic nomination for the Pennsylvania 8th Congressional District, a seat currently held by Mike Fitzpatrick. ...'This is just not the right time for me to put my hat in the ring.'[said Wiessmann]." (Wiessmann Press Release, 9/8/05)

"Former state Treasurer Barbara Hafer announced last week that she will not run for Congress (PA-18)in 2006." (Roll Call, 9/8/05)
