Scott aka the Blogging Caesar at Election Projection has up his latest projections for House and Senate races, and – all things considered – they don’t look too bad for the GOP. Of course, anything can happen between now and then, so keep that in mind as you view the numbers.
I think Harold Ford, Jr.’s little slip up this weekend about Republican Christian voters is going to have a negative impact on his numbers. I don’t know how much, but even just a few percentage points would make a big difference. I don’t live in TN, but you don’t have to live their to know the inroads he’s been trying to make with conservative voters there, including the conservative Christian vote. If Corker capitalizes on Ford’s slip up, it could mean a significant enough shift to lead him to victory next Tuesday.
Ford Jr.’s attempt to appeal to conservative voters is not exclusive to his campaign, as this New York Times article points out:
ASHEVILLE, N.C., Oct. 28 — In their push to win back control of the House, Democrats have turned to conservative and moderate candidates who fit the profiles of their districts more closely than the profile of the national party.
How perfect. The Democrats are masquerading as something they’re not in order to get elected, right here at Halloween. ![]()

“Conservative”…”moderate”…compared to what? Only in the MSM bubble can Ford be considered “moderate”.
So much for the tsunami the MSM predicted! Democrats may get marginal control of the House. That’s enough for impeachment, which is the only item on the Democratic party’s agenda, but a Republican Senate will stop it. And without the Senate, Democrats cannot end-run the Constitution and remove Bush from the Presidency by something other than the Constitutionally-approved process.
On a related topic, major MSM newspapers continue to die the death of thousands of customers deserting them. Which one will go bankrupt first?
Thanks for the tip on the newspaper circ. numbers, MD! Very encouraging. That deserves it’s own post, which I gave it
- Isn’t that strange. In spite of all the MSM articles itemizing in elaborate detail, all the reasons that ChimpyMcHitlerBurtonBush is such a disliked president, so wrong, and so unpoplular, voters across the land are turning out in record numbers to attend his campaign rally’s. Maybe the poor MAJORITY of American’s never got the memo?…You think?
- Bang
Well, you can’t say the Dems aren’t fighting hard to win next week.
For example, up here, the city of Philadelphia is opposing a plan for DOJ observers at the polls. Correct me if I’m wrong, but aren’t the Dems the ones who always screamed about how we need the law around to keep evil conservatives from intimidating the nice voters?
Or do you think maybe they’ve figured out that it’s harder to have your people vote two, three, four times when Department of Justice watchdogs are present?
- It makes it a lot harder for the Dems to hide the Bus loads of “multi-voters” too….
“Vote early….Vote often!”
- Bang
Also on the topic of election season – you’ve all heard about how it’s wrong for high government officials to be in cahoots with the executives of companies that make the voting machines. We’ve all been told there’s plenty of room for corruption there, right?
Guess it depends on which government’s involved. Take a look.
GWR: What a tangled web we weave, eh.
