Obama's numbers in OH stink, and PA isn't much better. He's hurting in FL. McCain's putting on the pressure in NH, WI, MN, IA, CO, VA and rumor has it even MI again. And McCain/Palin are just now employing their ad blitz. Life is good, and barring a major October/November surprise the lightweight Marxist has been defeated.
But we still have plenty of work to do. There are a bunch of vulnerable freshmen Dem representatives in the House. The GOP has about 20 realistic pick-up opportunities. See my list below:
AL-05
AZ-05
CA-11
GA-08
IL-14
KS-02
KY-03
LA-06
MS-01
NH-01
NH-02
NY-20
PA-07
PA-08
PA-10
PA-11
TX-22
TX-23
WI-08
And my personal favorite! PA-12 (tough, but doable thanks to Murtha the Marine smearing racist)
Details on these races (website links, voting percentages, fundraising numbers, etc.) are here spread throughout this thread.
The current count is Dems 233, GOP 202. The Pubbies unfortunately do have to defend a lot of seats due to retirement. To retake the House they'd need to basically run the table on defending those seats and win about 16 of those above pick-up opportunities. Possible, but not likely. However, a solid McCain/Palin win in this anti-incumbent environment could provide enough of a push. And just cutting into the Dems' current 31-seat lead, after months of them gloating, will be very demoralizing.
If you've been thinking about donating your time and/or money, now's the time.
Bwahahahaaaaaaaa!!!! I love blowhards like you. I say so-and-so could win. (And that's assuming they even go back into Michigan.) You say there's absolutely no way in Hades they can win. Then you wait for some phantom "I told you so" moment.
Okay, you're smarter than McCain, Palin, their staffs, and definitely me.
I have little faith in American voters. But I still think McCain/Palin will win.
I'd say Kerry would give Dukakis and Mondale a run for their money in the most inept candidate contest.
How about the Florida seat that was held by Foley that is now held by Mahoney that has had at least two affairs and his wife is suing for divorce because he spent all their money? Looks like a solid pickup for the GOP! :)
Sorry I meant to say Kerry was a better candidate than Obama in Florida and nationwide.
I think we get at least two more pickups in PA with Lou Barletta beating Paul Kaj and also Murtha could go down in flames.
I think we may pick up 20 seats in the House.
FL-16. Yeah, I had that on my list earlier, but obviously it didn’t make it onto this version. Good catch! That seat is now THE most likely pick-up opportunity, followed probably by PA-11.
bttt
Figured we had a great chance to pick up FL-16 but who would have thought it would come gift wrapped!
I agree with you that we could pick up 20 seats. The people we send to DC better have their heads screwed on right this time and no more giveaways of our tax dollars.
Obama and Biden may not be toast quite yet, but their bread is getting pretty warm!
Obama plans on interrupting the World Series to push for more votes. I already can listen to him anytime because of the Dish Network station he purchased on satellite tv.
Bump
Good night bump
“This is a straight ticket year folks. No time to punish yourself by punishing the GOP. Every vote for Democrats is a vote for Keith Obermann.”
Excellent.
I always say that a vote for Obama is a vote for William Ayers.
Thanks. I’ve been punishing myself watching CNN. The only redeeming value was Sarah Palin.

New York - the insane Maurice Hinchey is being challenged by republican George Phillips.
I’m tired of hearing “use it or lose it!”
Go George!
