All the numbers are looking good, but now's not the time to stop working!
At this point, even Republican pollsters are predicting that Democrats are going to take over the House. Encouraging numbers from places like Virginia, Tennessee, and Arizona give us great hope for taking back the Senate too.

But elections aren't won in September. There's two months to go, and there's no time to be resting on laurels that haven't even been earned yet.

Volunteer, donate, and tell everyone you know to vote for your local Democrats. We've come too far to give up now!

Remember - 6 feet isn't going to be deep enough for this monster. We're going to need to put the Republicans at least 12 feet deep if want them to stay buried.

2. Absolutely correct - the fight has just begun!
And we know the GOP is going to pull out all the stops, and they have a huge bag of tricks as well. We just need to stay on top of them, and hopefully a few steps ahead of them.

America is really sick and tired of Republican leadership. Obviously, it just isn't working. Take a look at America, we are NOT a happy camper!

3. How right you are!
Edited on Tue Sep-05-06 10:40 AM by Lasher
If all the latest polls are 100% correct, ignoring the MOEs and other considerations, and assuming if Lieberman wins he would caucus with Democrats; if the elections were held today we would pick up the 6 seats we need to regain control of the Senate:

Missouri, Montana, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, and Virginia. But the bad news is, we would lose a seat in New Jersey! This would give us a net result of 50 seats, not enough for a majority thanks to Elmer Cheney. Come on, Senator Senator Menendez, we're rooting for you!

Edit: Funny, how misspelled names jump right out at you - but only after the message has been posted.
