1. "But May Understate Uncertainty"

?

[BzaDem]

2. Yeah. We could lose 75 seats, or only 25. That doesn't provide us very good news. n/t

[pstokely]

17. Maintaining control would be good in this environment

:patriot:

[B Calm]

[RUMMYisFROSTED]

14. No.

As in: "You win some, you loose some."

[B Calm]

16. you don't loose some, but you might loosen your belt.

4. Not what the article says. It says the consensus is at 50, but includes a lot of uncertainty

Dems are going to lose seats in the House and the Senate. The odds for this happening is very very low. But is it , 20 30,40,50, 60, 70 or 80 is what experts dont know because of the uncertainties in the model.

5. Good reason to get out the vote!

Make the victories too lopsided for the repugs to steal.

6. I have a feeling a lot of folks will need to develop a taste for crow...

cooked.

7. Historically we should lose 25 seats simply for being in power.

So 25 more is not that bad.

9. What's the least the incumbent party has lost in the past?

10. Pugs gained in 2002. I think we gained in 1998.

8. He is counting on at least 1 R pick up in Washington and I

don't think that is likely to happen. Larson and Smith have pulled above 50% and lead by 6 and 8 point margins. (WA 2 and WA 9)Herrera gave a really poor debate performance last week and private polling shows that race (WA 3) within the margin or error. Heck is campaigning harder and I think he'll pull that out. Cloud isn't anywhere close to Dicks in WA 6. The gap between Reichert and DelBene (WA 8)is also now within margin of error and the momentum is going DelBene's way. I don't think we'll know the results of this race on election night but DelBene has a shot especially since Reichert is almost absent from the campaign and she has a massive phone and doorbelling effort underway this weekend. Most voters got their ballots today.

11. Not it we vote.

There are a lot more of us than there are teabaggers.

[pstokely]

12. They've already lost according the media

Don't even bother to vote :sarcasm:

15. I'm looking at our local race and I have to admit the D in my congressional race has shitty ads.

I love my Senator's commercials the best. It's not just about money it's mostly about production and message.

18. Fox estimates 500.

Call back Nov.3

[Sheepshank]

19. "However, there is considerable uncertainty in the forecast "

The article is caveat after caveat (including the cell phone issue) of why they may be off in the prediction. What a joke!
