Many TV political talking heads are now predicting a GOP comback in 2014, and rightly so. Despite infighting with the tea party, and unpopular stances on a number of issues, I see the GOP making impressive gains in the elections of 2014 for a reason that's too often overlooked. Republican voters are more diciplined in their voting habits than Democratic voters. Democrats generate a lot of energy, but cannot sustain it. The GOP is not as flashy, but is more consistent. An interesting contrast. 😏

Midterms usually break for the party that doesn't have the Presidency. Obama is pretty unpopular so the Republican should pick up seats.

Republicans will lose badly in Congress. People are tired of the wealthy suppressing the economy out of spite.

Irrelevant. They don't make laws which cater to the wealthy at the expense of the rest of us.

Is that why they call Obama the Food Stamp president?

Honestly, the middle class keeps shrinking every year no matter who is in power. This type of thinking is infantile.

As for the GOP, I could care less. If put in power, they will continue to run insane deficits and do nothing about Obamacare. Useless is too good a word for them.

Barring something strange happening, it will be a good election for the GOP. They'll solidify the House and gain seats in the Senate. The only real question at this point is whether the Republicans will re-take the Senate. I'd put their chances right now at something like 45%.

If they do take it back, what do you think the odds are that they will actually pass a budget? I say it is only about a 10% chance, slightly better than the dingleberries in their now.

I say to hell with all this talk about money. After all, what fun is that? I say the DNC runs on gay sex. I think that is something we can all "get behind". 😛

You really have to examine Obama policies and appointments.

Well Whodey, you clearly know more than anyone else here, so who are we to question?

If they take the Senate, keep the house, and pass a budget, will Obama sign it? Getting a responsible budget out of the Senate even with a filibuster proof majority in the Senate would be against all odds.

You are easily duped. The rich do not make money on Obamacare? Who is collecting all of the money flowing from government subsidized program?

Middle class professionals in the medical field are getting the Obamacare money because there is more demand for their services.
