Predictions for November 2nd:

Senate: 53 Dems (counting "independents" Bernie and Joe), 47 Republicans

House: 220 Dems, 215 Republicans

"Second Amendment Solutions" start to occur in the weeks that follow, as disgruntled Beckistan Tea Partiers are unable to accept the results.

Watch your backs.

3. Being optimistic.

55 Senate seats 25 Governorships. The House is a different question though.
Strong GOTV could give the Democrats 240 seats (a still strong majority). Weak turnout means Speaker Boehner.

4. 48 Republicans in the Senate, 230 in the House

I see the House as impossible to hold onto.

6. Too many of the polls are right leaning IMO

54-56 Seanate seats for Dems

Around 225-230 Dem House seats after the election.

The "Repub tsunami" is a ripple. We'll lose a few, but people are waking up to just how batshit crazy all of these Tea Party crazies really are.

I hope we send a new Dem to the House in replacement of Reichert. As a vet, Patty Murray is my gal. We need to make Dino Rossi a 3 time loser.

I just hope we keep both chambers and start playing hard ball. My sig still applies. Much needs to be done yet.
