Grim Dems await huge House losses

[The Hitman]

Source: Politico

The last TV ads have been cut. The final polls have been conducted. The end-of-campaign expenditures are being made.

Now, for Democratic consultants and campaign officials who have plotted and strategized for months to preserve the embattled House majority, there’s nothing left to do but sit and wait for the expected horrors of Election Day to unfold.

What the hell?! Talk about a ridiculous pro-GOP spin! Politico has been nothing but a cheerleader for the GOP lately. Even yesterday's stories about the Stewart-Colbert rallies were spun as "Democrats can’t ride Jon Stewart’s wave" http://www.politico.com/news/stories/1010/44432.html


At this point, what's the difference between Politico and Fox News?

20. Are they going to fix the ballots again so the GOP wins?

32. What a big mistake for our country to make

Wait, listen.. Do I hear Christine O'Donnell demanding a recount?

The tea party has SWORN to try and bring back Bush policies, and even go to deeper extremes, like removing government programs and agencies, the department of education and social security. They started that racist anti-hispanics law in Arizona; They're full of deception and they're bad for this country.

I guess it's not all bad though. A few seats in congress, but hopefully the dems can get things rolling before the self-proclaimed messiah named Sarah Palin tries to run in 2012.

3. I think this is highly unlikely

There's been very little evidence to indicate an even slight possibility.

5. Huge? I'm not seeing it.

Yeah, we'll lose seats. But I'm not seeing HUGH anything.

Glenn Greenwald has documented Politico's Right-Wing ties...

8. Not lately. Politico has been open about its GOP bent since its inception.

[MinM]

17. That was my point...

I was questioning the use of the word 'lately' for Politico's function as a mouthpiece for the GOP. They always have been.

[monmouth]

7. Morning Joe will be full of this. Maybe cartoons for Monday morning...n/t

[RBInMaine]

9. Why the hell are you wasting time posting this propaganda?

[Judi Lynn]

14. I wondered about that, too! No one identifying as a "Democrat" would be hot to post that.

Odd.

Glad you mentioned it.

People who read any already know about Politico, anyway.

[The Hitman]

21. MeThinks You Protest Too MUCH..giving Two Links to Politico?

23. Can we stop posting these planted stories?

[madrchsod]

25. fuck politico......there is no difference

[sabrina 1]

26. Democdrats are going to keep the Senate and increase the number

of seats they have now. They will most likely end up with between 54 and 55 seats, but no less than 51 and a possibility of 58 at most.

Iow, Republicans have zero chance of winning the Senate.

As far as the House is concerned, no one knows, since one third of potential voters still haven't made up their minds.

Politico needs some new political analysts.

I'm betting on Dems winning the Senate with 54 seats at least.

[madokie]

27. politico has always been a cheerleader for the gop

no lately about it :-)

[CommonSensePLZ]

28. The numbers are actually pretty close

Looks to me like we've nudged voters down to a tie! Which means with the current democratic majority if the current seats up for grabs are split the dems could keep the majority.

My math could be wrong, I don't have the numbers and I'm not an expert, just going by the percentages. And I don't like the tea party.

[Stinky The Clown]

29. Fuck Drudge-With-Manners

33. Politico is a dick cheney favorite. Shills and shysters. n/t
