It’s an off-year. Many fewer Democrats are up for election.

What are you talking about? The entire House is up for re-election.

Huh? I thought that every two years, ALL members of the House, and 1/3 of the Senate is up for re-election.

[El Cid]

The House is always up for re-election (every 2 years) ... all gazillion of them (I forget how many of these princes reside in DC). Only 1/3 of the Senators are up for election - same as it is every 2 years...

The entire House is up for reelection every two years.

“It’s an off-year. Many fewer Democrats are up for election.”

What kind of gobbledygook is that? Every two years on even years ALL members of the house of representatives face election. That means in the coming house elections far more democrats than republicans will face election.

Um hate to break it to you but every House Dem (as is every Republican) is up for election. And if you mean Senate, it's actually looking better there---far better than I could have dreamed a few months ago. Sphincter is trailing, badly; Kirk (yes, a RINO) looks to lead in IL; Voino in OH (retiring) has a good chance of being replaced by Rob Portman---trailing in the last poll, but Portman has been doing nothing but raising a phenomenal amount of money. Insiders say he's ok. Castle in DE (RINO) is leading. Reid is trailing.

It is possible that with Portman, Toomey, and a strange twist with the FL seat, that we could replace three RINOs/former RINO (in Sphincter's case) with three conservatives and only pick up one seat in the process, yet have many more conservatives. Boxer is very low in her polls, too, and has a very well funded opponent.
