Gut Check: How Will We Do In The 2006 Election?

[Dinger]

What do you REALLY think?

[eallen]

1. I think taking the Senate will be tough. But I hope.

[karlrschneider]

2. As they say, hope for the best and be ready for the worst.

Meanwhile GOTV!

[cali]

3. Holy shit.

Even though this poll is still young, I'm shocked by the number of people that think we'll take House and Senate in a landslide. Some people are really setting themselves up for disappointment. I voted for the take the House/make gains in the Senate option.

[Mr_Spock]

20. Same here...

I want the Senate to be the one I'm surprised about positively, the House would be a disappointment if we didn't take control.

[Kurovski]

4. A stunning landslide for Dems.

If it is allowed...if it can break through the bull...if we work for it and fight for it.

[Dinger]

5. I Like Your Attitude (nt)

[Kurovski]

8. It's mutual!

:hi:

[cali]

6. Sorry, I just don't see a landslide.

I do believe the dems will pick up somewhere around 20 house seats to give us a razor thin majority there, but barring some really heinous repuke scandal, I can't see us taking the Senate. The good news is that even with a pick up of four Senate seats, giving us 49, we should be able to stave off any reactionary right wing judges.

[Kurovski]

7. You could really be correct here Cali. I just have a good feeling

about it, despite the very real facts about our Senate chances. I'm actually counting on voter's emotions helping to sweep the Senate. (or rather "take" the Senate for the Dems)

People are terribly worried and angry at the Repubs out here. But I realize that it is really a worthless projection, as it is all based on a hunch and emotion.

No need to be sorry! :hi:

11. Landslide!!!

Dems take 59 new seats in congress this election.

The Publicans are going down so hard it will be an earthquake. I have never had so many of them tell me they are not happy with their party. They are in worse shape than in the time right after Watergate.

I'm sorry, but the defeatist attitude of just 20 seats needs to be stricken from DU. 58 new seats at a minimum is our goal!

[cali]

14. LOL

I get a kick out of your confidence, and hope you're right, but I wouldn't call projecting a gain of 20 seats in the House, defeatist.

[helderheid]

9. I'm sure the exit polls will read that way n/t

[Kurovski]

10. And that's where the fighting might have to begin.

:hi:

[tlsmith1963]

12. It Will Be a Landslide...

...if those Rethug SOBs don't try to steal another election.:mad:

[SaveAmerica]

13. Burnin down the house...

I'm a lady of the 80's, what can I say.

[mvd]

15. I think we'll take the House

I see 50-50 in the Senate, as it's looking now. We'll pull off either Tennessee or Missouri, and NJ will narrowly stay Democratic.

[Lochloosa]

16. After listening to Rush and Shawn for the last two weeks...

the repubs are dead meat. They are SCARED!

Happy Halloween.....

[American Jesus]

17. Voters and exit polls will say huge nationwide victory

DIEBOLD will say another "close win" for the neocons.

[Dinger]

18. Kickin' My Own Thread Just To See If You Still Agree (Or Not) nt

[Yupster]

19. I really think

it will be bigger than they're saying on tv. I think they're trying not to go overboard and get burned, but I bet their numbers are saying it's overboard.

[Catchawave]

21. Other: There's an election coming up ?

Just kidding, but thought my subject line will get your poll lots of kicks :hi:

Seriously, Other: I'm just not dancing in the end zone yet.
