If the pubbies put up real republicans and/or conservatives, they’ll take back 75% of the seats lost to demhole freshmen. the demholes took many these right-leaning districts (like NY 29 where I am, for Bush twice by handy margins) by recruiting candidates that appeared like reasonable people. Massa only won by 1.6%. Navy background, talked the reasonable middle of the road schpeil. He won on Obama’s coat tails and because Kuhl was a boob, and the ignorant masses had been fed 8 years of evil-Bush-republican propaganda by the media sluts. But the guy’s a left-wing hack. if the pubbies put up a real R, their guy wins by 5% min and they regain the seat. if they put up some RINO wuss, we’re stuck with the demhole hack for 2 more....
I’ll be interested to see if Pelosi is much of a factor in 2010. She wasn’t in 2006 because Americans didn’t know who she was nor was she in 2008 because of the Presidential election.
