Rep. Kevin Yoder (R-Kan.), in an interview published Monday, predicted that President Obama would narrowly win reelection next year but that Republicans would capture the Senate.

"If I had to predict, I would project that the president would narrowly win reelection, the House would stay the way it is and the Senate would go Republican," said Yoder, in an interview with the Kansas City Star.

America won’t survive four more years of this insanity!

Kevin is not a RINO he is a real Tea Party guy. It was just a dumb comment that I bet he wishes he had back.

“Obama’s personal likability continues to poll in the high 70’s low 80’s.”

I don't know of a single person who is honest, responsible and intelligent who likes Obama.

Who are all these supposed people who find Obama likable? They don't do any useful work. They don't live responsible lives. I think these polls are phony.

I am a Newbie and risk being thrown off FR, but I pray that we do not let our guard down and we should all heed this Governor’s warning. Please, please, please work like we are 20 points behind. We will celebrate the day after the election!!!!!!!

I don’t disagree with you...I’m guessing the Rats & Indies will do the same as we...hold their nose and vote for obama.
I am hopeful that rats & indies will do what Repubs did in 2008...stay away.

Yoder, “We know 95 percent of Republicans signed the no-tax pledge. They’ve made it very clear. I don’t know what we benefit ourselves from continuing to go down that road.”

Doesn't sound Tea Party to me.

If Trump runs third party in order to get obama re-elected he will be the next ambassador to China.

Screw this guy! What a moron to make such a statement!

[VanDeKoik]

I wish some of these wannabe talking heads would just STFU.

You are not the physic friends network.

[longtermmemmory]

Obviously this rep is speaking the beltway scripture and the insider of DC view. He needs to be primaried.

If Willard is the guy I predict this dude is right.

The GOP will not support a winning candidate.

[Pollster1]

You might as well just stay home then.

Disagree. With Obama or Romney, either way we need as conservative a Congress as possible to restrain the White House. We need every possible conservative voter for every House and Senate election.

yep, Krauthammer, Rove, and a gaggle of local freepers are busy killing off the survivors.

[Pollster1]

He’s saying what Intrade says also, and probably because he read their numbers. I hope he’s wrong, but I think he wants to look realistic. I’d prefer someone who worked to change the future instead of trying to look smart for accepting a disastrous future.

[hinckley buzzard]

Kevin is not a RINO he is a real Tea Party guy,

Really? What has his voting record been? That's the only thing that counts.

[sergeantdave]

I trust your judgment.

Semper fi, FRiend.

[muir_redwoods]

I believe Obama has an excellent chance to win re-election. The circular firing squad that is the republican primary will very likely produce a candidate the true believers will not support giving us another four years of the Kenyan marxist.

“Moderate”

[no dems]

Rep. Kevin Yoder (R-Kan.)said that in 2012, “the House will stay the way it is.” NO, NO, Congressman; there will be one change for sure. Your a** will be voted out.
