Remember, we only need ONE senate seat and Daschle, Hillary, Kennedy and the rest of the socialist crowd will be spending the Christmas season cleaning out their desks. Of course, I'd feel more comfortable if the GOP picked up several senate seats and that is indeed possible.

52 percent favorable for Cheney - and that is one conservative guy.

We need more than one, we have some New England turncoats waiting in the wings I'm betting to flip it right back if its close. You know...if you can't win an election, cheat.

When respondents are asked to rank the most important issues for the government to address, without being shown any list or being prompted, the economy continues to top the list at 28 percent, but this is down somewhat from its score in July and August (33 percent and 32 percent).

The next four issues, however, are terrorism (24 percent), the "war" (14 percent), Iraq/Saddam Hussein (14 percent) and national security (12 percent).

In other words, the war on terrorism ranks first at 64%.

snowe and chaffee will jump...

we need to gain three to keep the jumpers out of the zone where they can be "bought" with a seat on committee by Daschle.

They are saying that we have four pretty much as a minimum... and a gain by as much of eight is potential. gaining eight would put us in the 57-58 range... but is not likely we will get there.

I look for chaffee to jump, if we only gain one.

I can understand these numbers, except for one. Why aren't Cheney's numbers higher? He is doing a fantastic job, and his input is very beneficial. His rating should be high like Rummy's (my favorite).

Hence, the RAT meltdown this week. 1994 is going to be revisited in November.

nice analysis....

a real poll would have divided up economic issues into:

retirement income
medical coverage
job growth
stock market
price of gasoline
interest rates
vs.

America's defense.

bet that puppy would have gone 92 percent to eight....
we are getting so fed up with the bullshirt poll manipulations...

If Talent beat Carnahan, the RATS could be playing musical chairs on November.

"Why aren't Cheney's numbers higher? He is doing a fantastic job,.."

The media's love affair with Halliburton has taken its toll.

If vacant Lott had a brain he would be cultivating a dem switch to the GOP. Vacant Lott and brain, did I say that ?

"The ratings of the Democrats in Congress have also improved"

You have to remember that half the population has an I.Q. below 100.

I'd feel FAR more comfortable if the GOP picked up more than just one seat. You never know which way Linc Chaffee is going to go... he's most likely the next Benedict Jeffords.
