| 1. So we're looking at something in the range of +6 to -48. |
|
That's probably 100% accurate. In fact, I'd bet money on it.

How is that possible? I never heard that mentioned on national TV. My god! Am I allowed to even mention that fact?

| 5. The party in the White House almost always loses seats in the midterms |
|
1934, 1998, and 2002 are the only exceptions in recent history.

| 6. The party in charge of the Presidency loses some seats in the mid terms. |
|
Except when Bush the scummy idiot scared us all in 2002 after 9/11. I fail to get why some here don't get that and are hyperventilating over losses even in local elections in their towns. I think we lose around 20 in the House at the most, not enough to flip Congress. The Senate will be close too but I think it stays Dem.
