Poll: Do you feel optimistic for increased Democratic seats in 2014 ? [View all]

Just curious.

"Increased Democratic seats", meaning more Democratic Senators, Representatives, and Governors.

I think if the PPACA rollout goes well, we will do well. Anything can happen in the next 13 months of course.
