The man controlling the Democratic party, George Soros, admits even his billions can not stop the Republicans from reclaiming the House.

Asked if the prospect of Republican control of one or both houses of Congress concerned him, he said: “It does, because I think they are pushing the wrong policies, but I’m not in a position to stop it. I don’t believe in standing in the way of an avalanche.”

Okay, I'll try again.....

Pixie, these people you support think you're an abomination. Republicans use gays as a political football.... they don't want YOU to get married, adopt a child, they think it's alright for you to get fired just because you're gay. They think it's alright for you to be evicted from your home because you're gay. They think you're a second class citizen. They say you can't teach in a school.

Are you support these people? You're alright with that? Are you so filled with self loathing that you agree with that?

Now that is what's sad.

He or she must be a paid operative. The idea is to get us to believe the cause is hopeless and get us to stay home. The right will put together separatists, vigilantes, racists, elitists, wackos, so-called Christians, anti-intellectals, zenophobes, jingoists and other assorted extremists solely on fear and hatred. Even whores draw the line on who to accept into their beds. And the saddest part is that they are doing it not to get anything done, but, rather, to stop things from getting done and to line their own pockets.

Don't you get tired of parroting the same left-wing drivel? Troll this, operative that. Yawn.

An avalanche is defined as a natural disaster.

Republican + avalanche = a natural disaster

An accurate description if the Republicans gain any power.

Bob, do you know the difference between a verb and a metaphor?

nicely done there............

There is no Republitard "avalanche" happening this year. Yes, the Reupublipukes will probably pick up 3 or 4 seats in the Senate and 8 to 12 seats in the House, but they aren't going to get control of either the House or Senate.

Hate to break it to you, but that's completely unrealistic.

Completely unrealistic is an understatement. I'm guessing that's what MSNBC is telling their viewers.

Molten: Republicans will pick-up the following Senate seats currently held by Democrats. If you believe they'll only win 3 or 4, then you're seriously suffering from delusions.

Arkansas
Colorado
Illinois
Indiana
Nevada
North Dakota
Pennsylvania
West Virginia
Wisconsin

I wouldn't try to sell my services as a political analyst if I were you. Pretty much everybody, except Pelosi and you, is conceding the House. And the most recent count I've seen in the Senate is 50-50, but it isn't 60 which is the important number.

Soros money hasn't bought him the socialist utopia that he was hoping for. But it is fun to watch him piss all that money away!

The important number for Republicans would be 67, the amount needed to override a veto, But that doesn't matter either because the Republicans are only interested in gaining power and obstructing President Obama. They have no affirmative policies or ideas for legislation to enact, at least none any JUBer has been able to identify or willing to admit.

Not at all. You have your ideas backed by what? Polls. It's anyone's guess still. How often is common "wisdom" actually backed by substance?

Considering that these polls have been telling us the same thing for going on a year now, I'd say its pretty much assured that you're wrong. The democrats are going to lose and lose big. The question now is not if its going to happen, its how BADLY they're going to lose.

Its not going to be 3-4 seats in the senate or 8-12 seats in the house. You're looking at 7-10 senate seats, and at least 40 house seats (if not more). If I were you, I'd stick to my day job and let the people that actually know what they're talking about do the forecasting for the election.

RCP's balance of power as of today. The numbers behind the projections have been drifting steadily away from the democrats for months now and show zero sign of changing despite some wishful thinking by some very uninformed individuals............

Actually the magic number is 51. Then they get to set the rules as the majority party. As far as obstructionism, works for me! Stopping a continued drift towards leftwing facism/socialism and continued class warfare to distract from social policy failures is just fine with me.
