Interesting line from article: "The Democrats need 15 net gains to regain control of the 435-member House for the first time since 1994. They can count on perhaps a dozen, but others are too close to call and the residual power of incumbency may be critical."

It is time for the pundits and pollsters to return to reality. They have been spending the last year doing everything possible to create a Democrat victory. But now it is time to make the final predictions that they will be judged on after the election is over.

It is all well and good to pretend the Democrats are going to win in September, when nobody will remember what you said. But when your reputation is on the line, you have to be right.

“The Republicans have convinced everyone, not least themselves, that the reason they did so well in 2004 was because of their turnout operation,” she said. “They think they’re smarter than us, and, the truth is, some of us think they’re smarter than us.”

heh heh

I love it when the Dems whine about being "outspent" by Republicans. I guess the multi-billion dollar advantage that they enjoy from the biased press and entertainers doesn't count, eh?

Some of the British reporters in America do a really good job, but this sounds like the kind of guy who hangs out with the American press in Georgetown bars and sends back reports of what they are saying.

Needless to say, 99% of the reporters who hang out in Georgetown bars are Democrat shills.

Sue: Are you there, can you here me?

Diane: Yep, Sue, what’s going on out there?

Sue: Wind.

Diane/Miguel: Wow!

Miguel: Sue, just to clarify, are we dealing with a gusty type of wind or a constant wind?

Sue: Well Miguel, there is a gusty wind and yet it is also constant. I guess you could say it’s kind of a gustiness that remains constant.

Diane: Sue, is this the kind of wind that will blow things over?

Sue: Well Diane, nothing has blown over yet. But history has shown us that wind is dangerous. It can blow, and things will move.

Diane: Sue, I’m sure the viewers at home are wondering just what I’m wondering right now... could these high winds blow the killer bees directly into our backyards?

Sue: Yes Dianne, it is possible. This is exactly the type of climate they thrive on.

Diane: Ok, ok, do we have...yeah ok, Sue?

Sue: Diane?

Diane: Sue, what’s going on out there?

Sue: (squatting on the sidewalk, pointing at a candy wrapper) Diane, this wrapper was not here just a moment ago. Apparently it must have blown here.

Diane: Oh my god.

Voiceover: Windstorm 97!

Miguel: You know Sue, maybe you should get out of there.

Diane: But first Sue let me throw a question at you. Sue, could the wind blow the killer bees out of our garages and into our bathrooms where they could lay eggs in our ears and eventually burrow into our brains?

Sue: I’m sorry I’m.....breaking.....

Dianne: Ok...

Miguel: You know what? I...

Dianne: Have we...have we lost her?

But Democrats have learnt from bitter experience that breaching the Republican defences — even with an opinion poll yesterday showing them with a 14 per cent lead nationally —

If that poll was anywhere close to accurate, Democrats should be on pace to gain 60 seats. Reality is they will be lucky to get a majority.

"PUNDITS predict that the Republicans will be swept from power on Capitol Hill on November 7 by an elemental force of voter anger aimed at President Bush and Congress..."

The "Vote or Die" stoners usually don't actually vote.

The MSM will really look like ideological dolts (yet again) if the Dems don't win the House.

...while Charlie Cook, the pre-eminent American election guru,...

I this some sort of British humor?

The real headline should be:

"Media-created firestorm may burn out on election Day."

"Will Lamestream Liberal Media attempt to whip up voter fury using biased anti-Bush and anti-GOP stories pan out? Voters might not be buying the media's bias, and Democrats fret voters may slip away from them when they think long and hard about voting."
