1 - Crash the economy. 2 - Steal the election. 3 - Concede the election.

These are the only paths the R-squared team has available now. There is zero chance they can herd enough independents together to overcome their Washington Generals performance at this point.

1. I was just sitting here pondering whether they are just mailing this one in, playing for the future.

frothing up the tea party with the Ryan pick...So all of this wreckless attack ad spending is just to fortify the base sufficiently to make a go of it in 2016 - or, perhaps, just to try to keep the house and take the Senate.

2. Nah...

Those dolts actually think they can (and will) win the election... I work with a bunch of right-wing nuts who are all fired up about the Ryan pick......

I don't want to get too overconfident, but if the GOP is LUCKY, they'll keep the House. At this point, it's looking like the President wins again, we KEEP the Senate, and maybe TAKE the House!!

3. We'll retake the House

All the Teabagger victories from 2010 will turn to defeats in 2012, when the voters realize that the Republicans are the only one obstructing the House and doing nothing for two years.

Hopefully several Republican Senators will be defeated as to strengthen the Senate and give back the real filibusterproof majority by 2014.

5. I so hope you are correct!

Here's to it!

4. I've been saying all along, 2012 is a throw-away to clear out the loonies.

They haven't offered a single serious candidate this time around.
