Dick Morris: Polls Show GOP Tilt

The latest polls show a tilt to the Republicans, noted political strategist Dick Morris tells NewsMax exclusively.

Morris made the following observations late Sunday:

The Republicans will lose the House.

The Republicans will likely keep the Senate.

The GOP now has a lock on Tennessee, and four other states remain in contention: Montana, Missouri, Virginia and Rhode Island. The Democrats have to win all four to get control of the Senate. Morris says that is highly unlikely.

The latest voter trends suggest the Republicans may not face disaster. The most recent Pew poll has the generic Democratic vote up just 4 points over the Republican vote. Morris says the GOP has been closing an 8 to 9 point gap in the past week.

But Morris says other developments may help the Republicans, including the verdict against Saddam Hussein.

Morris indicates polling over the weekend will show if the GOP may be rebounding even more just a day before Election Day.

Stay tuned . . .

We are going to have gorgeous weather in Pennsylvania.

There should be a good turnout.

Many of the swing voters are going to tilt to the left this time. We know that. We also know that some of us are going to say, "What the hell. We're going to lose. I'm not voting. I'm just going straight to work."

Of course, we can't do that. We have to vote. If we don't stay home, if we do turn out, we can overcome the swing voters.

I believe he said the gap has narrowed to the space between a hookers toes.

Yes. We do. That's why we have to get off our butts and go to the polls to counteract it.

I've never failed to vote in any general election since I was eligible to vote.

Dick Morris; all he does is just reguritate info we've all known for a week. He is about as accurate in his "analysis" as Chrissy "The Sissy" Matthews.

...The same Dick Morris that was Clinton's political guru when they lost 54 seats in th house and 9 in the senate in 1994, that Dick Morris?

Nope. Morris, who helped Clinton get elected and re-elected governor of Arkansas, wasn't involved with Clinton as president until after '94.

So basically Dick is leaving himself an out to come out with an afternoon prediction on Tuesday so he can say he was right. Better ask Zoggy how that worked out in 2004.

I may be wrong, but I think the GOP wins big.

Tennessee, Corker
Montana, Burns
Maryland, Steele
Arizona, Kyl
Missouri, Talent
Rhode Island, Chafee
Santorum, 50.9 percent, Casey 50.1 percent
New Jersey, Kean
Virginia, Allen

Focus on the Senate....only the Senate deals with the SCOTUS.

Of course, he says we will keep the Senate, too.
