WASHINGTON (AFP) Vice President Joe Biden brushed aside suggestions on Sunday that Democrats will suffer big losses in November midterm elections, vowing that Barack Obama's governing party will "shock the heck out of everybody."
Speaking on the ABC News program "This Week," Biden dismissed prevailing wisdom that Democrats, 17 months into Obama's transformative residency in the White House, would suffer a drubbing at the hands of salivating Republicans.
"I don't think the losses are going to be bad at all," Biden said. "I think we're going to shock the heck out of everybody."
Biden said he was "confident when people take a look at what has happened since we've taken office in November and comparing it to the alternative, we're going to be in great shape."
The vice president said he believes the Obama administration will get credit from voters for helping guide the economy out of recession and passing key legislation on health care and financial reform.
"It's just going to take time," Biden said.
"The election is not until November. And I think we're going to have to firmly make our case."
Obama has launched into campaign mode in recent weeks, hoping to transform the spectacular grassroots support from Democrats and independent voters which propelled him to the presidency in 2008 into a full-bodied platform for his party in the upcoming congressional races.

Have you read that book? I would think its a bit dated even though only 6 years old. I was trying to find a summary of it but didn’t see anything.
As far as Mass (I’m starting to think that the SoB, SB was a plant/paid for usurper) we see how well that’s working out for the republic. Virginia & NJ may be just ‘tokens’ and we might be allowed a few ‘tokens’...just to quiet the masses. In the meantime, more liberty (is there any left?) is being stripped and the next booby prize for these marxists is the power to cut off the www. Because if there is one thing that cannot be tolerated, it is independent thought and an intelligent group of individuals.
Fraud or a major crisis or both, are going to be attempted because that’s the only way this evil lot can remain.

He might be right, if the fratricidal sniping at less-than-pure Republicans on this site is any example.

They already HAVE firmly made their case! That's why they're tanking. Unless they put everyone who has a job or a skill into a reeducation camp on November 2, this is going to be well outside of the margin-of-fraud.

Let me clarify my response - I mean the author of that book. His forecasting ability on how the GOP candidates were going to be so strong in 2006 and 2008, and don't worry be happy was way off. Way way off.

I fear that you are right, but I’ve thought so since before the 2008 election, and hope I’m prepared-I think the Maya and the others were off about a year or so in the timing of their predictions...

"I don't think the losses are going to be bad at all," Biden said. I absolutely agree with Biden, the huge losses by Democrats this fall won't be bad at all, if fact their electoral massacre will bring a great celebration to most Americans.
