Leaving The Prediction Business Until The Next Election Cycle....
Edited on Sun Nov-16-03 05:01 AM by DemocratSinceBirth
I had predicted Jindal would beat Blanco as part of a larger argument that the Democrats are not doing very well....

As Winston Churchill said "eating words have never given me indigestion"


That being said, the Democrats have work to do:

Recapture the House

Recapture the Senate

Recapture the Presidency

Recapture the State Houses....

Go Democrats.....

1. Pretty much
recapture everything, eh?

yeah. I really think if we put forward a good candidate, the momentum OF that candidate can help us recapture the house. I don't think we can take back the Senate, but we might be able to do it with the House, unless those newly redrawn lines in Texas stick. We are still waiting for a report from the Justice department. If it is approved, the Democrats, I think, may be able to appeal the decision. Also, the Pennsylvania SCOTUS case may influence the Texas case as well. In the Penn. case, SCOTUS will be deciding whether district lines can be drawn based on political affiliation.
