A new Republican Congress should message that they're tired of obsessing about Obama's mistakes. Everybody knows about those. The trick now is to focus on solutions. On change. On saying, "We can do this. We can fix this."

"Can" and "will" are two very different things.

Not if any "unaccompanied child" that makes it across the border can vote.

It’s good to see Kudlow is still taking his happy pills.

The Republicans are going to recapture the Senate, picking up more seats than most any forecaster expects. And the House GOP is going to add to its majority.

I've always been an optimist. I would love to believe that Kudlow knows something that the rest of us don't. I really would.

The idea that nothing much will change if the GOP captures the whole Congress is just plain wrong.

Maybe I'm a "glass is half empty" guy,

but Little Johnny Boehner has had, and will continue to have, his nose so far up 0bama's butt that he hasn't seen daylight in years, so I don't expect the House to be changed; and

McConnell is a doddering old fool, who should've been sent packing years ago and is symbolic of the worst of the GOP-e. He is better than the mob boss Harry Reid, though, but certainly not dynamic.

Keep Karl Rove far away from everything. Announce why you are passing the legislation and counter attack the dimoKKKRATS and the press. Don’t remain silent.

I’m hopeful, but not really optimistic. Last time Republicans had it all, all we got was more spending and bigger government. Until true conservative principals are applied, nothing much will change.

The idea that nothing much will change if the GOP captures the whole Congress is just plain wrong. The politics and policies in Washington are about to change in a major way.

A wonderful dream. But I must live in reality. Should these two match up it will be a great day for America and the world.

“will be able to move forward the reform ideas of his caucus and House policy leaders like Paul Ryan, Jeb Hensarling, Kevin Brady and many others.”

I’m so inspired!

Angus King, crossing the isle? NO, he, like Snowe before him will just flow with the money! As with Snowe before him, when important votes are to be taken he’ll do what is best for him and everyone else be damned!

Every single time a budget bill has passed since the Unaffordable don’tCare Act went into effect, the GOP “leadership” has continued to fully fund it.

What do you think the chances are, under a GOP majority in both Houses, that they will defund Obamacare?

Hold off, Larry. We’re not even sure the republicans are going to win Kansas and Georgia.

Bit to mention a couple polls Friday have them losing Alaska pretty big.

And then there’s that pesky “they don’t hold the WH” thing.

You wouldn’t like nothing better than the rats getting the House back and getting more seats in the senate, wouldn’t you?

That is the best strategy for republicans. They need to flush this clown down the toilet.
