More GOP Districts Counted as Vulnerable

I just hope that, for once, Americans won't fall for the negativity and bullying of the GOP.

This nation is in deep trouble. Leaving the crooks, who enabled Bush and Cheney to run it into the ground, will only make things worse, perhaps beyond repair.

Nothing will change in the middle east until all of the architects of that disaster are held accountable for what they've done. That process begins with removing the obstacles to that process.

More GOP Districts Counted as Vulnerable:

Privately, many Republican strategists fear there may be no way to prevent the Democrats from winning the House, where Republicans hold 231 of 435 seats. One prominent consultant -- who like many of the people interviewed for this article spoke on the condition of anonymity to offer candid appraisals -- put the odds of a Democratic takeover at 75 percent. Another strategist who has worked as part of Bush's campaign team said he believes there is a 9-in-10 chance that Republicans will lose their 12-year-old House majority.

Other GOP officials, while nervous, believe they can hold the House with aggressive local campaigns and a national effort to focus on terrorism and security to raise voter fears about the consequences of Democratic control.

All predict one of the most negative midterm elections in memory, with virtually no positive advertising from the national GOP committees or individual GOP candidates.
