Is MSNBC - apart from the nighttime lberal lineup - talking about the "big chance" of a Dem loss?
Reports of the repubican tsunami continue to circulate in the media. Polls aren't showing it. Looking at individual races, we're not seeing it. California is not as "endangered" as they were wishing. When Magic Witch beat Mike Castle, that pretty much ended any real chance the repubs would take the Senate.

Here in Maryland, Dem Gov O'Malley is up fourteen points over repub Ehrlich in what is still being called a "close" race.

But there's the media, including "Liberal" MSNBC, pushing the corporate script.

Tsunami, my ass.

1. they have been all day
And I think some watchers have been tweeting nasty comments to the worst offenders. Chuck Todd tweeted something to the effect of his *just reporting what he sees*.

Poor widdle Chuckie poo. :nopity:

2. Polls about individiual races show
a much different picture. The house could still be lost, but Democrats will NOT be losing 80-100 seats.

4. I think the CW is now 50-something seats in the House
Even Republican analysts are now pretty much conceding that they won't be taking the Senate.

3. There only hope
Is getting democrats to think it's a waste of time to get out and vote! It isn't going to work, but it's all they have now, that and the new talking point at fox news that the democrats are going to "steal election! The MSM is doing everything they can to help the right win, no matter what the polls are saying!

I think democrats are fired up, motivated, and will be out in full force on election day, or early voting! I sent my ballot in last week!
