I honestly think the Democrats will do better than expected on November 2nd. Will they lose seats, of course. But I don't think this "wave" the media is talking about will happen. My prediction is the Dems retain both the house and senate and even if they do by 1 vote given the expectations game the pundits and pollsters have been shoveling for months about the "enthusiastic" republicans who can't wait to vote (if so why are the Dems leading early voting in several states?)it will be a victory for the Dems if they retain congress.
I do agree that the democrats will retain both houses, but even if democrats GAINED seats, the meme from the media would be, "Republican wave keeps democratic gains to minimum."
