C'mon Ohio!  I would hate to see former NJ State Attorney and lunk-headed liberal John Farmer be right!

I'm sick of all the pessimism. Notwithstanding the drumbeat from the RATS and their media handmaidens, we can win this election. First step is to turn our own attitudes around.

The "negative Republican story" blitz that we are seeing is unprecedented and will only become more strident as we draw nearer to election day. They are meant to instill defeatism, doubt and doom into the rank and file Republican Party so they won't come out to vote. If this tactic works we will only see worse in 2008.

I'll vote for Ken though I think he is a losing cause. There is no way I will vote for DeWine. I would rather face the enemy directly than have someone that is supposed to be on your side stab you.

GOP is poised to blow the DEMS away in FL and possibly CA as well

Man, if the Dems don't sweep both Houses, there are going to be all sorts of homicidal moonbats flying around screaming Revolution - not to mention apoplectic MSM heads. That and a wholly imploded Democratic party.

Can't wait.

Ain't gonna work.

"There is no way I will vote for DeWine."

Then you just voted in a democrat and maybe the whole senate and maybe more liberal supreme court justices. Man that was smart.

Dems tried the same tactic with the 2004 presidential "false exit polls", but it failed miserably. Dems couldn't understand how Rove managed to turn out the vote so effectively. We know the obvious: Democrats are attempting the same voter suppression techniques. They want to discourage us every chance they get. I'm going to frustrate the daylights out of them soon. ;0)

Commie sherry brown thanks you for your vote and Blackwell is not a lost cause, but nice try at trying to suppress the GOP vote.

Ain't gonna work, troll.

Look at it this way. As Kwai Chang used to say, when attacked, one must merely survive in order to win.

Even if we lose 5 Senate seats and 14 House seats, we still win. The Dems have to take control to win.

Agreed. This is all "rathering" the content (it's made up from whole cloth!).

Look at the FR board and parse the "headlines" - on OPINION pieces:

"Foley mess and GOP..."
"Discontent with GOP..."
"GOP Fears..."

It's strateegery that good conservatives should see through...so let's start seing through it.

I'm just not going to believe anything in the MSM about the elections. For instance, the MSM reported that Republicans were conceding Ohio and withdrawing funds for the DeWine campaign. The RNC denied this was true, but the MSM has not retracted the story and, in fact, keep repeating what they know is not true.

For more, go to http://www.gop.com/blog/. You'll find this: "RNC spokesman Aaron McLear told [ABC] that 'The assertion that the RNC is pulling out of Ohio is not accurate. We have been and will continue to assert a considerable level of support for Sen. DeWine.' While another Republican Party official added, 'We have spent more money in Ohio than any other state and that level of spending will continue through Election Day.'

Seems obvious to me that the MSM is attempting to suppress the vote in key races by making up stories of gloom and doom.

Can't wait.

Me, either! I don't have a crystal ball, but I just don't think the election is going down the way the so-called pundits are calling it. All of these "polls" are so biased and favor the RATs, that naturally, they are going to predict a RAT blow-out. When the RATs don't take both the House and the Senate, we are really going to hear some nasty stuff! (Wonder what Carville will put over his head this time??!!)

Anecdotal evidence that the polls are manipulated:

I know at least 5 persons who have been asked to participate in a phone survey in the past 2 months. Each said, "no". They are a mix of conservative and liberal.

I participated in a survey about 2 months ago and did so with my tin-foil hat while excerpting talking points from DU.
