Cheney makes big 2010 prediction

(CNN) - As President Barack Obama nears one year in office, Dick Cheney is predicting the Republican Party is in for a big 2010.

"I think we'll pick up a lot of seats," the former vice president told Fox New's Sean Hannity Tuesday. "Prospects for the Republicans in 2010 are very good."

Next November, all 435 seats in the House and more than a third in the Senate are up for grabs. Democrats will be defending their 258-177 margin in the House and 20-seat advantage in the Senate.

1. Has this guy ever been right about anything

ever? Greeted as liberators, WMD, Iraq, Sept 11th connection etc.

[Peacetrain]

4. Never.. he gets it wrong every single time..

[tomm2thumbs]

25. but we were greeted as liberators, remember?!!

uh, nevermind

[Bitwit1234]

2. What I can't understand

is, if this piece of garbage was so good as statistics, predictions, rationalizations, how come he was the most involved in screwing the heck out of this country. Every single thing he and bush did was 100% wrong from the invasion of an innocent country, to the loosing of millions of jobs. Some person please explain this to me.

5. When Dick Cheney speaks.. run for the hills..He is an irrational emotional

bag of wind

[Craftsman]

3. If good payiong decent jobs and lots of them returnin teh next 10 months

2010 will be a blood bath.

[BeFree]

6. What's really sad...

..is a bunch of DUers that agree with him.

For one reason or another they seem to be on the same page.

[bdamomma]

7. he can keep dreaming or

shut the hell up!!!

[Peacetrain]

9. Did you hear that yesterday on Hardball.. that was so funny..

I can't think of his name now.. but a congressperson said Cheney should just STFU.. per internet parlance

[Cha]

21. Alan Grayson said it..

I read it on DU.

[The_Commonist]

8. That's GREAT news!

Because as we all know, Cheney is wrong about everything!

[TheCowsCameHome]

10. It's what republicans do best - "pick their seats"

Go away, dick.

[beyond cynical]

11. So what...isn't that is what has always happened in off-year cycles...?

This guy is absolutely brilliant.

[Rosa Luxemburg]

12. they will try to steal the elections again

[AllentownJake]

13. Well that is good news

Dick Cheney is usually wrong.

[racaulk]

14. Why is it that we hardly heard from this man when he was VP,

but now that he's out of office we can't get rid of him?

:banghead:

[LiberalFighter]

15. I want a damn recall on his pacemaker.

[Harry Monroe]

16. What I don't understand is how can anyone hear him with his head so far up his ass?!

Wouldn't your voice sound muffled if your head was stuck far up your rectum? Just wonderin'. :shrug:

[Blue Owl]

17. Harry Reid is doing everything possible to help them

as usual...

[Hippo_Tron]

18. That's Dick "The Iraq insurgency is in its last throes" Cheney

[asdjrocky]

19. They probably will-

the way the Dems are totally blowing health care. It will serve them right too.

[treestar]

20. HIs approval ratings were even lower than Bush's

Proof that the M$M has an agenda. Why would they so continually cover and publicize the rantings of this maniac? They know hardly anyone likes him or wants his input.

[budkin]

22. Awesome... that means they are in for a drubbing!

[LovinLife]

23. If the Dems screw us on Drug Re-Importation this is a real possibility. NT

[Cha]

24. He also said there were WMD. Did Gore get to

make these predictions after the bush coup?

Just askin'

[Vinca]

26. The teabaggers are splitting the party. Dems will gain seats.

[Arkana]

29. I predict a stalemate. Republicans maybe pick up a few seats in both houses

but it's no barn-burner.

[quaker bill]

27. He does not know what is coming

His record of failure is nearly unbroken, but then this makes him a fairly typical republican. The economy will turn the corner, it is even now. People will be going back to work. They predict doom and gloom because they believe government intervention in the economy cannot work.

If the election were held tomorrow, republicans might fare pretty well. 10 months from now, not so much. 3 months from now, probably not so good for them either. Any sustained good news on the economy will be enough. Given the length of time in play, their only hope is a double dip recession.

[MadMaddie]

35. And your explanation is why ALL except maybe one or two

Repugs are supporting any bills that are presented. They want to try to stop anything positive for the American people and if they fail then the Repugs can come back and say the Dems didn't pass anything or do anything.

It's really that simple.

[Arkana]

28. Karl Rove predicted the same in 2006 and 2008.

How'd that work out for the GOP? Pretty good?

[rasputin1952]

30. I think he took the brown acid...

the man is still reeling from the incredible defeat of the GOP which was, in a good part, of his making.

I think the GOP is in complete meltdown, and might not even exist in 2010...:D

[santamargarita]

31. Does this asshole really believe anything he says?

:puke: :crazy:

[niceypoo]

32. Dick Cheney is a trustes source of predicting outcomes

Take his Iraq predictions for instance...

[jesus_of_suburbia]

33. As bad as things are... I think Americans know they could be worse.

We'll lose some seats, but I think we'll keep our majorities.

[bbking]

34. =You don't think he has any credibility do you?

Check him out, even Sarah Palin is more credible than he is !

[chieftain]

36. Yeah, the GOP will be greeted as liberators. n/t

[davidpdx]

37. I don't think Cheney is at all creditable about massive losses

But I do think the Democrats could be in trouble. Will the lose the majority in the House or Senate? I think it's unlikely. Will it be close? It could be in the House. I think we will have less then 60 in the Senate, which means we'll lose some there too (I mean did we really ever have 60 in theory anyway? Lieberman, need I say more?). If we are lucky, we'll keep both majorities and somehow figure out how to continue to get stuff passed. It's not going to get easier though.

38. honestly wtf does cheney have to say these days

He also did a lame zzzzz interview with Sean Hannity recently.
