| Gallup: Democratic Edge on Generic Ballot at Perilous 2%Interesting analysis you may find pretty uplifting. Gallup tries to avoid saying that a 2% Democratic lead means that Republicans are actually ahead and will win, at least in so many words. But they kinda say that, with a lot of caveats and hedging. Let's go to 1994: When the Republicans trounced the Democrats and swept the party out of power in both Houses of Congress.In 1994, leading up to a Republican landslide, the generic ballot suggested it could be a very promising year for Republicans, as the party actually enjoyed a slight lead among registered voters in several polls. When the likely voter models were applied in the final months of the campaign, Republicans held solid leads among this group of voters.On the other hand, when Democrats do well in the elections, their numbers on the generic ballot poll show double-digit leads: ![]() Comments1
Half of the 52% is a total write off. Hammers and Sickles would make them happy. But the other half presents some hope. And Obama's full bore attack on everything America stands for is waking some of them up. I hope and pray.

If this economy doesn't have people rattled about the Democratic party by now, then we have reached some kind of critical mass of stupidity that we may never recover from.

Can we assume that Gallup will always understate Republican strength, to a predictable amount? Posted by: joncelli at November 02, 2009 02:53 PM (RD7QR) 4
Has anyone thought to poll George Soros? He's pretty much the only one that matters, after all. Just the level of election fraud he'll have to pay for, that's all.

If Newt Gingrich is serious about helping the Republican Party get back into power, he should offer some private tutorials to Eric Cantor and John Boehner to help them craft a program for 2010 analogous to the 1994 Contract with America. Voters in 2010 should see the GOP offering a positive program they can vote for, in addition to a clear enumeration of the reasons to vote against the Democrats.

I don't like counting unhatched chickens.
Get out there and support good candidates in your primaries, and get out there and vote for them. The same "Republicans are secretly lightly ahead" didn't work during the Presidential race. All the polls that gave Obama the slight edge turned out to be right. Posted by: son of the south at November 02, 2009 02:58 PM (KNy97) 7
Posted by: joncelli at November 02, 2009 02:53 PM (RD7QR) they claimed Obama would win in a landslide on election morning last year and that he'd beat McCain by as much as 11 points meaning he would have gotten 57-58% of the vote, they also said Obama would take the states he did plus MT, ND, GE, MO, & Possibly SC & SD. in reality of course Obama got 52% of the vote compared to McCain and didn't even get 30 in the state count Posted by: YRM at November 02, 2009 02:59 PM (xNw7B) 8
The only poll that really counts is the one they take the 1st Tuesday of November 2010. Of course, with the national situation headed in its present course, the favorable results for the Republicans seem likely to grow.

Gallup: Democratic Edge The Country's Chances of Survival on Generic Ballot at Perilous 2%
A more accurate headline........IMO. Posted by: LGoPs at November 02, 2009 03:02 PM (QiSD7) 13
How about the Senate? How many D's are up for re-election (i.e. potential gains), and how many R's (i.e. potential losses)? What's the best we can hope for there? (Aside from knocking out Reid, I mean.) Also, since Obama's not on the ballot, a lot of the voters who turned out for him (and then presumably also voted for the Democrats on the other tickets) won't turn out. That may be worth a few points, and sometimes, a few points is all you need. Posted by: Some Guy at November 02, 2009 03:02 PM (lPxkl) 14
The same "Republicans are secretly lightly ahead" didn't work during
the Presidential race. All the polls that gave Obama the slight edge
turned out to be right.
the only polls you could be refering to are Pew & Rasmussen which both got the election exactly correct, all the others had Obama up by double digits, also the generic ballot was horrible for reps at the time which is what matters come House+ Senate elections, i'm sorry your analysis and pessimism are misplaced I agree let's not get excited (IE: Bill Clinton's comeback), but there's big elections coming up tomorrow & it seems dems keep going farther and farther to the left even though they could learn a lesson from their 1993-1994 overreach Posted by: YRM at November 02, 2009 03:02 PM (xNw7B) 15

5 - stuiec - I agree with you. They need to get after some of this crap that is pissing people off. Hell, they know healthcare needs to be fixed (note fixed - not taken over). They need to commit to fixing it. They know that Wall Street is bilking pretty much everyone. The need to fix that too. And they need to start pissing people off who are pissing the people off - namely the trial lawyers. They need to stop the effing earmarks, for crying out loud. They need to bring some statemanship back into the mix. P.S. - a little - no need to go overboard - just a little effing truth. Is that too much to ask?

"If Republicans actually manage to grab 50% of the national vote in 2010
-- which seems quite possible -- they are not nearly guaranteed of
taking the House, but it's fairly likely."
As happy as it would make me to see the House change hands in 2010 I would still rather see a gain in seats just shy of a full majority. That way the Democrats still "own" the whole mess and Obama will have to defend the government's failures when he runs for re-election in 2012. If the House changes hands it gives Obama an "out" to deflect the blame- which with the support of a compliant media he will surely be able to do (no, I don't think the media will turn on him- he's still their "Historic President" no matter how badly he screws up). He will be able to run against Congress in a fashion (somewhat) similar to that of Harry Truman in 1948. I would rather he not have that opportunity since I think it increases the chance that he (G*d forbid) gets re-elected. Posted by: Spiro Agnew at November 02, 2009 03:09 PM (OtQXp) 26

Posted by: stuiec at November 02, 2009 03:01 PM (7AOgy) Rasmussen got the election last year 100% correct, Obama's also at 46% approval there the last couple days (he's at 53% on Gallup). one reason Rasmussen is always so correct is because they only poll likely voters while the rest poll w/e dofus picks up the phone and for some reason dems get advantages from those polls while Republicans do better in likely voters' polls Dodd getting taken out (as much trouble as Reid), as a WWE fan it'd be cool to see Linda McMahon take him out but frankly since she's a moderate she won't be as much of an addition to the conservative cause as one might hope Posted by: YRM at November 02, 2009 03:09 PM (xNw7B) 28

6 I don't like counting unhatched chickens. Tomorrow, for instance, in both NY-23 and CA-10, people (in those districts) should get out and vote. Without the actual votes, all the other forms and measures of support are meaningless. I just got an email from BarackObama.com ("Organizing for America") urging CA-10 voters to get out and vote for that parasite and carpetbagger John Garamendi. Anyone who, like me, lives in CA-10 needs to get to the polls tomorrow to vote for David Harmer and send Garamendi and Obama the message that the era of big government is over -- again.

How many house seats did we take in 1994? Senate? It's probably more important to know what the total count was in each following the election.

wanna know what should scare dems?

Greatest Campaign Ever IMHO, ran perfectly and had a man in approvals as low as 39% come back to get re-elected I would rather he not have that opportunity since I think it increases the chance that he (G*d forbid) gets re-elected. I doubt he will, I know everyone is cautiously pessimistic about it and the RNC sucks and blah-blah but History says the likelyhood of 3 straight 2 termers is below 10% Posted by: YRM at November 02, 2009 03:14 PM (xNw7B) 41

They need to bring some statemanship back into the mix. I can see why Palin promoted Boehner's weekly address as a game-changer on health care reform, and I can also see why people like Allahpundit wondered why she thought it was a game-changer. Boehner put forth a clear, concise four-point program for Republican reform of health care, a real game-changer if it gets out and gets noticed. But he muddled the message by spending more time on criticizing the Pelosi Plan -- without going back at the end of his message to re-iterate his four points and how they would accomplish through market reforms what the Pelosi Plan will fail to do through government takeover. That's health care. There's taxation, energy, jobs, small business policy, regulation, and a whole host of other issues that need to be in the GOP program and packaged for voter consumption. Boehner and Cantor need to be the point men on the messaging on the House side. Who in the GOP caucus in the Senate has the stature and the skill to make the case from that side? (Not Mitch McConnell, I think.) Posted by: stuiec at November 02, 2009 03:19 PM (7AOgy) 50

29 A Marxist President and Repubs still lose? Sad, really sad. The corollary is, how moderate does a GOP candidate have to be if people in "moderate" districts were willing to vote for Oba-Mao? Doesn't that show that a person of immoderate conviction, if presented properly, can win in a moderate district? (And by "presented properly," I don't mean "cloaked in lies that hide his true positions" as Obama was, but "shown to have uncompromising principles that nevertheless appeal to moderate voters, such as fiscal responsibility, patriotism and other mainstream American values.")

Unless the GOP keeps its collective head up its ass like they did in NY-23 I think we will take back the House in a huge blowout. Not so the Senate because there just are not enough seats up for grab in 2010. They will lose their 60 seat filibuster proof majority though.

I think those were different polls. Rasmussen usually has better numbers for Republicans (and more accurate compared to election results), while Gallup better approximates the people you'd randomly meet in a bar. The last of these polls I remember was from Harris that's done once a month and was generally considered an outlier. Posted by: Methos at November 02, 2009 03:28 PM (IoxPW) 62
Since we're having a conversation that is kinda silly until next summer, I'll bite, and go ahead and predict if Obama is consistently below 45% in likely voters' approval, the R's will take the house, merely because of passion, motivation and turn-out of the pissed off people in this country. If not, then the nation has either not learned its lessons or has truly turned away from founding principles.

Ace, One Word, Gerrymandering. The legislatures draw the districts. Blue States usually have Democrat legislatures, which draw the districts to protect their own. In the South we have the Voting Rights Act. Which REQUIRES the state to carve out minority districts. This sometimes helps Republicans by lumping all the Black votes in one or two districts. See Mel Watt's district, it runs from CLT up I-85 for 100 miles. Computer programs now let the legislators predict nearly the exact vote count in each precinct. They now split precincts to make sure their guys win. I am in a House precinct that is split in two, so that the white vote is not included in the total of the other district. Now that we have the Obama DOJ, expect even more blatant gerrymandering. You will have nowhere to go to challenge.

The NY-23 race was an eye-opener for a lot of people. How, they wonder, did a raging leftist manage to get picked by the GOP? And when SarahCuda led the charge, many others jumped on the bandwagon. Real, genuwine conservatism will tend to win every time it's offered. Our problem has been with a national Republican machine more closely aligned with Thurston Howell III than with average Americans just trying to get by. The Scozzafava Debacle slapped a few in the Party back to semi-consciousness. If Michael Steele ever decides to, he could start making campaign ads touting issues like low taxes, energy independence and improving the economy. These are the truly big-tent items that affect everybody everywhere. It's the issues, stupid!

You and Gabe have both been pretty clear on posting under a non-troll's name, and especially any of the posters, being a bannable offense.

Very good Ace, really. I would say the numbers look the same in 2009 as they did in 1994 but Newt and the boys swept with less than the Republicans have today. Then it was health care and taxes. Now it's health care, taxes, the war on terror & foreign policy in general, cap & trade AND taxes.
Back then you ended up with a tropical storm. Next year, if Obama and Congress keep this up, we could be looking at a hurricane. If the Republicans have the brains, and the guts, to stick their necks out and ride it that is. Right now they just seem to be content with the idea that less of them will get blown away in the storm.

Furthermore, initiatives that shrink government end up affecting other issues that even the right-most con's want. Pro-life? Stopping any healthcare plan that provides federal funding for abortions is something we can all vociferously agree upon. Hate illegal immigration? Rolling back the federal entitlement schemes would help slow it down. Again, 98% of conservatives would agree with this. Shrinking government affects enough issues that it could unite all sub-groups in the GOP's wing. Posted by: Iskandar at November 02, 2009 03:42 PM (u1pln) 85

My analysis of the CA-10 race jives with the idea that Dem's are serioulsy out of favor. The Dems have held this seat since 1994. Obama carried the seat last Nov by +30. The Congresswoman (who has vacated to serve in the Obama admin) won the 2008 election by +34. The Democrats are running the current Lieutenant Governor who was first elected to a statewide office over 20 years ago. This is a pretty high power candidate for a little congressional seat, to be running against a political unknown. Based on my TV viewing, I think the Dems are by far outspending the Republican candidate. The polls last week had the Republican only down 7 points going into the election. What does all this mean? It means that the Democrats have to fight tooth and nail to keep a seat that should easliy be thiers. If the Republicans can compete in the CA-10, it is very much a 1994 scenario.

I also don't think the numbers and contests involved can support the Republicans taking back a Congressional majority in 2010.
So the first and biggest order of business is to break the filibuster-proof majority in the Senate. That wouldn't be so necessary if the Dems weren't being led from the extreme left, but they are. . .and it is. Posted by: looking closely at November 02, 2009 03:47 PM (KNy97) 96

How about the Senate? How many D's are up for re-election (i.e.
potential gains), and how many R's (i.e. potential losses)? What's the
best we can hope for there?
Best we can hope for? A pickup of 10 seats or so, which isn't quite enough to take it back. In reality? Probably only a modest gain (2-3 or so). Here's the races to watch for, roughly in order from most likely to least likely to pick up: Nevada (Reid) Connecticut (Dodd) Delaware (Open) Pennsylvania (Specter) Arkansas (Lincoln) Colorado (Bennett) Illinois (Open, most likely) New York (Gillibrand) North Dakota (Dorgan) West Virginia (technically not up for grabs, but, not to be macabre or anything, Byrd isn't getting any younger) Sure, you could try to put CA or HI or WI in there somewhere, but let's be reasonable. And while that list may look like a lot, there's an awful lot of open seats being defended by Republicans (OH, MO, FL, NH) or a bunch of weak incumbents (KY, NC, LA). So in reality, Republicans could actually lose seats in the Senate (unlikely, but possible). Posted by: Mariner at November 02, 2009 03:52 PM (v5kGt) 107

Being close isn't enough, Ace. Democrats cheat. They always have and always will. A republican has to be ahead by a significant amount to counter the effect of Democratic voting fraud, voter intimidation and other corruption. Between ACORN, the Black Panthers, fladulent votes and Obama running the printing presses to give out money to voters (it is really not an accident, Ace, that a LOT of the stimulus money is coming out just in time for the 2010 and 2012 elections), don't be surprised if the Dems keep comfortable majorities in both houses of congress, no matter what the economy looks like at the time. In NJ at least, the fix is already in, what with vote counters already told not to worry about ballots with false names on them. Mark my words, no matter what the polls say, the candidate favored by the Dems will win. Posted by: BattleofthePyramids at November 02, 2009 03:54 PM (0/dug) 110

My parents who raised me to be a good Conservative (and registered Republicans) said they were conflicted about Reid since he brings so much money to the state.

6 I don't like counting unhatched chickens. FYI, the scientific name is "eggs". Sometimes there's a double yolk; two chickens. Actually, an unhatched chicken in this context is not the same thing as an egg. The egg is literally the physical precursor to the chicken, but the unhatched chickens the farm girl counts in the fable are theoretical future chickens, akin to Schroedinger's cat. The concept is, "don't rely on the actual value of things you only plan to receive, when the outcome of your plan is not under your total control." Of course, nowadays one can buy and sell unhatched chickens on the commodity futures exchange, as in "60 tons of 30-day-old pullets for March 2010 delivery."

Mariners Senate break down was nearly spot on. Clearly, Harry Reid is now the most vulnerable incumbent, followed by Dodd, Lincoln, Spector and then Bennett. In the open seat arena, Castle looks good in Deleware. Kirk has a 50/50 shot in Illinois...Blago's going on trial in 2010 - so who knows how that impacts the election. Bunning is retiring in Kentucky, so that will prob. stay in Republican hands.

"As JB points out above, the traditional moderate in the GOP has been the fiscal con / social lib."
I think you may have misinterpreted my point. The way to sell the new conservative, Republican agenda is under the rubric of fiscal responsibility. For fiscal conservatives, this means low taxes, low spending. For social conservatives, blocking initiatives under which the taxpayer foots the bill for policies promoting social liberalism (abortion, gay marriage, NEA, etc.) And squishy moderates will acquiesce to the meme that fiscal responsibility is paramount in this day and age. Cutting the budget with a hatchet not a scalpel will cut away at the funding to promote liberalism. Posted by: JB at November 02, 2009 04:09 PM (1OoPr) 135

Posted by: Tami at November 02, 2009 03:52 PM (VuLos) The candidate will be pretty liberal no matter what, especially on social issues. I think the WWE thing does McMahon in over the long haul. Some of the crap used in promoting and selling it, especially towards women, is disgusting. I don't mind it but I ain't voting for it. Plus she just looks like some rich fat cat looking to take advantage of an opportunity when Dodd is down. She's trying to freeze everybody out with massive ad buys now and it's getting her nowhere. Not a great look in a bad economy. Without the WWE thing and all the donations to Dems she would be in easy. Schiff's a Paulnut so he's going nowhere. Rob Simmons has great name recognition but the problem is it's burnout. They have been hearing his name year in and year out with all the close races but he has a lot of loyal people. Plus he has a lot of votes in the House to drag around. He's not new or a change. Foley will get it I think though. He got a good business record, which didn't require girls in hot pants beating each other, and he's new. Newness will actually be a plus next year.

if you think parents have no right to know if there 13 year old is
getting an abortion that's liberal. If you have a 100% NARAL rating you
are very liberal. Far more liberal than even the majority in a blue
state like CT. Traditional Republican moderates were fiscally conservative and socially moderate, never liberal. RINO's today are like Rockefeller Repubs, fiscally moderate and socially liberal. In other words they are moderate democrats. Nobody wants either one of them.

132 -- I think you will see the downstate, except for centers around the universities (although, that may change thanks to Quinn's latest) going more red. Then again, I think they'd vote a communist in as long as that person didn't hail from Chicago and promised to represent the downstate -- they'd vote their neighbor's cat in (which actually might be an improvement). Tim Johnson will have to watch out for Dr. Fish...and that's not good (I've met Fish in person, he's managed to get a fair amount of support in Johnson's district, and really on meeting him the first thing that popped into my mind was "here's our homegrown version of Al Gore"; not good). Posted by: unknown jane at November 03, 2009 10:21 AM (5/yRG) 155
25 -- Very good point; I've been worried about that as well. If the Republicans take back Congress in 2010, he can keep up with the "blame Bush" meme and win (and possibly take back a majority of Congress, and that would be terrible -- I think this may be what they are hoping for); if they don't then there's a possiblity that the country gets wrecked beyond redemption. The best hope is for there to be enough of a change to the makeup of Congress to force the Dems up for re-election to become "squishy" (which to some extent is happening right now -- cold feet might be a better term) and put the brakes on this.
