Why are Americans unhappy? The economy is in a downward spiral, and crime is skyrocketing. There are many other reasons, but the collapse of the economy and rampant crime are at the top of the list. Is a correction course for America just what the doctor ordered?
Our lives are endangered by policies passed one after another by those who care not a wit for the public, but only their power over the public. A million illegal aliens crossing the border unimpeded is not making too many of us very happy, either.
Let’s call this one…
Brace yourself for a Republican Wave; as voters shift their attention to the economy and crime, polls begin to hint at a major GOP advantage.
Most thought the Senate would go to the Republicans by no more than a two-seat majority. We’re now convinced they have a chance at as much as a six-seat majority.
The Republican Party is on the verge of a significant political upheaval, noting that currently, the “GOP has a five-point lead among likely voters, but a 21-point margin in competitive congressional districts.”
Right now, Democrats control the House 220-212, with three vacant seats, and 218 needed for a majority. At this point, polls indicate strongly that Republicans will take 221 seats and Democrats 176. There are 38 seats seen as toss-ups.
That alone gives Republicans the needed House majority if most polls are close to correct. If the toss-up seats split down the middle, the Republicans will have a 45-seat majority of 240 to 195. If the toss-up seats all go, Republican, devoutly to be wished, they would have an 83-vote majority of 259-176. Okay, we can dream, can’t we? But at this point, the toss-up seats don’t even matter, as we would win the House without any of them.
