Speaking of the Senate, what happened to the “almost guaranteed Republican Senate of 2012”? Several months ago it was noted that in the Senate the Repubs had to defend 10 seats while the Dems had to defend 28 seats and thus a Repub Senate was likely. Now, we hear that the Repubs will be “lucky to gain 4 seats” while Romney will not make ObamaCare a campaign issue. Can anyone explain this drastic change in forecasting?
I have always been optimistic of taking back the senate and I remain so. I would bet money on it in fact. It is ours to lose. It has been ours to lose since 2008. The democratic legislative agenda is going to end in 2012.
