"Republicans would gain 10 more seats"

[IChing]

Evidence of voter happiness, according to Rove:
the University of Michigan’s consumer confidence survey has relatively high readings.
He cited a study from some political scientists (whom he didn’t name) that said with consumer confidence as high as it now is, Republicans would gain 10 more seats in Congress than they’d otherwise gain in November.



He is ill, I tell you, ill.

1. What does consumer confidence have to do with the GOP?

They obviously didnt include me in this poll, I'm a pissed off "consumer" who is A, tired of the label consumer, and B, is not a walking dollar sign.

And the high gas prices dont have anything to do with it, either, do they. :sarcasm:

5. Bingo

Diebold will strike again..

[TexasLawyer]

13. yes-- simple as that!

[Marr]

16. Exactly- all they need is a talking point excuse.

The big media will anxiously lap it up and repeat it- much like "values voters".

3. so, they lose only 50 instead of the 60 they were going to lose

before we all went shopping.

[BuyingThyme]

11. Exactly. It's all in the words.

4. Yeah and monkeys are going to fly out of my butt....

The only way the Repubs will win seats is if they cheat.

6. No kkkarl-I think that should be

10 more seats in prison.

7. Rove is getting ready to excuse the exit polls and rig the Diebold

machines.

[mod mom]

10. Exactly. Getting the public ready for the upset-again!

8. wonderful outlook by rove.

His grasp of reality seems to be in the same ballpark as OJs.

14. 10 more seats. IN JAIL!!!!

The obvious kicker here is the (whom he didn't name) part. That's code for "pulled it out of his arse"....

15. Watch out -- this is laying the groundwork for election fraud

We need to dig into that UM poll. Someone's on the payroll.
