GOP Keeps US House and US Senate
We are just more than a week out from Election Day and I need to repeat what I wrote back on August 26: Republicans will keep control of the US House of Representatives and the US Senate.
Since August 26 much has happened. I'll not go into detail on what has happened, all those that subscribe to a liberal (news)paper have certainly read enough about a non-sex sex scandal to know what I'm referring to, plus I intend this to be a very short post in order to simply be on record.
Bona fide sexual harrasser and undeniable sexual predator (who was innoculated from it all because of his unwaivering belief in abortion-on-demand), William Jefferson Clinton had it exactly right: It's the economy, stupid.
All the people that pay for gasoline, own homes, have jobs, and own stock will simply decide Democrats will certainly not manage the war against terrorists better than Republicans and that they haven't minded their accumulation of wealth through home appreciation, 401(K) account appreciation, Roth account appreciation, 529 account appreciation, and increased disposable income from moderate merit increases and tax cuts coupled with declining gasoline prices and stifled inflation. That African-Americans and Hispanic-Americans are participating in the "ownership society" as they never have before will be the under-theme in the election result's post-mortem (voter turnout will be low as the national Democrats simply will not be able to incense traditional Democrat voting blocs with their hateful racial and ethnic rhetoric and those minorities that do go to the polls will vote for Republicans in greater percentages than the "experts" project).
Just one man's opinion. I'd love to hear yours but only if you include a brief "why" you think as you do.
Finally, Mr. Jeff Jacoby, the only non-liberal extremist that writes for the Boston Globe, did a column today on racially-motivated, political, hate ads (boston.com, Today's Paper, Opinion). Yes, he mentioned the disgusting ad by the NAACP from 2000. Yes, it is possible he's getting concept ideas by reading ZACKlyRight.blogspot.com.

dems take house and senate. foley and iraq are just too much to overcome
Foley issue isn't going to have much impact. It comes down to the economy vs Iraq. I predict the Republicans keep both houses but very narrowly.
Love the question and the opportunity. My prediction is that the Republicans will keep the Senate but lose the House. Dems need 15 seats but I think they have a shot. The reason? IRAQ- it's huge in the minds of the electorate.
I predict that the Dems take both houses, it just seems to methat Iraq and overall distaste and disgust for our lawmakers are too huge (although Kerry has given us a boost). Also, historically, the voters have frequently tended to split parties between the Pres and Congress. Of course, I pay little attention to politics, and thus my impressions may be overly influenced by the liberal media that is so often a target of this blog.
There is hope -- for the first time since I can remember, my vote for a Republican senator in NJ actually has a chance to be for the winner, because the democratic candidate is so bad.
Kudos to True Centrist, newsjunkie and Conscience.
ROC, I think you and I may have been quilty of allowing what we wanted to happen to impact our prediction of what would happen.
