    I get the feeling they're bracing for the worst, so that anything less they can claim is a "victory". After factoring in tampering and voter suppression, I'm predicting R in both houses. But then again, maybe I'm just bracing for the worst.

    What ever the results and come what may, this has got to be one of the most pivotal and anticipated elections in history. Just another nail in the coffin on how great a nation the USA is and hopefully always will be.

    My take is that the are trying to scare their disillusioned and demoralized base into the voting booth with these exaggerated forecasts of a large Democratic victory. I don't think that there are enough currently Republican held Senate seats at play for these predictions to have a chance of turning into reality.

    Out of the five ncocon rags I follow, all but one are ignoring tomorrow's election. Silence. Deafening silence. Here is one of the few political articles from Monday's neocon cheering section:

    I imagine that most political scientists using these models to analyze the Republicans this year would come to the conclusion, "The GOP sucks!"
    First, ask yourself, what are House and Senate Republicans promising going forward? If you have to think real hard, it's because the GOP isn't really offering much. Let's run down the list of failures and missed opportunities:

    The republicans are much better organized at getting out their voters, and a R surge at the end is business as usual. "Tomorrow is another day".
