Wonder how long it took Ms Sidoti from the "AP" to make this up?!

The fact that we are seeing so many "Republicans gonna lose" articles tells me that a co-ordinated psyops campaign is being waged.

Don't fall for it.

It is rather amazing, isn't it. Even though my horse really isn't in this race, I sort of root for the R's. It is pretty clear what is going on here. 'Course, who's ahead at half time is really irrelevant, especially when we're still scoreless.

I understand that in the second half the R's are bringing out the star quarterback, Rove. It should get interesting.

Wishful thinking. They have been working this line for about 90 days. They had a clutch of "Southern Republican Women" who were "going to vote Democrat this year". Turned out all three were Planned Parethood-Democrat activits types with only the most fleeting contact with far RINO "Use to be a Democrat" Southern Republicans. They seem to think if they just scream the lie long enough and loud enough it will become true.

Funny thing about the polling data. Gallup finally did a 48% Likely D voter-48% Likely R voter and discovered something. NONE of this magic Democrat strenth exists when you stop oversamply Dems at a ratio of "38%-D 27%-R 35% "Ind". a and actually run a SERIOUS poll.

It is all about who shows up on Election day. All this polling is just noise.

"married women with children" not necessarily the same quantity as "moms"... in fact, a subset...

"The economy is not going well. People have no money."

What world is she living in?? Unreal. Very sad that people are either too stupid to see reality or so willing to believe lies from the biased media. So when things do downhill even more, and America becomes less safe when Democrats contol Congress, I'm sure these morons will be the first to whine that everything is Bush's fault.

I think it's definitely coordinated to discourage Republicans.

But we've heard similar things during mid-terms last time.

The danger, for the MSM and their Dem darlings, is that the Democrats will believe the articles and think it will be a walk in the park, thus promoting voter apathy and discouraging Dem turnout.

As I mentioned yesterday in a post, the media of today loves to prognosticate, but all these articles, pre-election, saying how and why the Republicans are going to lose are really over the top. They cannot be termed "news" in any way, shape, or form, they're just opinion pieces.

We may have a free press in this country, but we certainly do not have an honest one. This agenda stuff on the part of the media has become totally unacceptable. They conspired to get Kerry elected and it didn't work and their answer has been to become even more blatant and outrageous.

They (the Dems/Lib Media) are coming really close to penning a "Dewey Wins" headline.

And then if it doesn't go the way they hope, there will be the usual cries of "stolen elections".

My husband and I both work at Microsoft and we are doing just fine, thank you. The stock could be doing better, but all-in-all we make good awges with excellent benefits, as do about 70,000 of our fellow employees.

We live in the bluest country of an extremely blue state. We will both vote for our Republican candidates. This is my son's first time to vote in an election. He will do the same.

I'm sure there are many people who are struggling but on the whole I think Americans are doing well. People don't realize how good they have it. Just like 1992 when Clinton and his people depressed everyone by saying how awful everything was. Funny though how the same people who complain now probably were in exactly the same situation in the 1990s but then they thought it was OK because Clinton felt our pain! Ugh.

I'm sure everyone feels pinched by the cost of living too. Prices on most good and services are always going up. But how is electing a Demo Congress going to help? They will no doubt attempt to raise taxes on individuals and businesses, and they say they are doing it for the middle class! What a joke.

And I've often wondered if that's not part of the "set-up" of the MSM too. So "if" their guy loses, they can cry stolen election, our polls told us he would win, etc. etc.
