What about the “Shift to the Democrat Party” that happened in 2006? or was that BS too?
What shift? The Dems didn’t surge in 2006. Conservatives threw a hissy fit and stayed home. And the Republicans lost a LOT of House races by fairly thin margins. Which is why if conservatives stay focused and work hard, I think we can see a lot of vulnerable Dem freshmen out of work next January. (But don’t be misled. These same vulnerable Dems are well funded.)

Here is what happened in 2006. Click on the link, note the partisan breakdown, and then click the “U.S. House Elections” tab.

Incidentally, given that it was the Independents and not disaffected Republicans who swung the House to the Democrats two years ago — after Independetns essentially split their vote in the previous five election cycles — I would be very worried about my current day job if I was Nancy Pelosi. This same group is now favoring McCain by nine points in Gallup’s internals for the preceding week.
Shhh, you heard it here first.
