UPDATE: And yes, I covered my bases, predicting a 218-217 Democratic House majority on NRO, and predicting a 218-217 Republican House majority in the Washington Examiner. (Either way, I can say I predicted the correct party in print ahead of time!) Seriously, I think it will be that close. Dick still has him beat. Moris has flip flopped about half a dozen times now in the last couple of weeks. Somestimes within hours of each other.
The GOP has a sustained momentum. That will carry a few wavering seats over the line. I stay with my prediction the Reps will not lose more then nine in the House, probably closer to 5-6 and if everything flows just right could do even better with Dem seas switching hands.
The GOP will not do worse then 52 in the Senate, 53-54 more realistic. And depending on the strength of this momentum they could conceivably do better.

I like your optimism. I hope we can hold the Dims to a 12-seat gain and the Senate to only four new Dim seats. But I think I'm too optimistic.

Morris is no dummie, but I still remember how he predicted a GOP gain of seats in the double digits in 1998. We all know how that worked out...
