We've seen it all. The Democrats came to power in Congress in 2007 after retaking control of both houses in the 2006 Election. Barack Obama won the 2008 election, and took office in 2009. Ever since then, the country has been in a downward spiral.
The Democrats will tell you that they have cut taxes. Temporary tax credits are not tax cuts. In reality, by April of this year the Democrats had raised taxes by more than $670 billion.
The Democrats know they are in trouble, and may lose in excess of 70 seats in the House, and could possible lose their majority in the U.S. Senate as well.
Knowing that they are in trouble, the Democrats have been pulling their dirty tricks right and left (Typical Democrat strategy - avoid issues, use tactics of personal destruction).
Christine O'Donnell, Sharon Angle and Joe Miller have been the targets of constant attacks that attempt to demonize these people as inexperienced, or unworthy. The Tea Party has been accused of being racist, sexist, and anything else you can think of. When that didn't work, the Democrats began to ridicule the Tea Party - using their censorship through ridicule method. It didn't work either.
Rich Iott, a Republican Candidate in Ohio was criticized for daring to play the part of a Nazi as an actor in a reenactment. Geez, if we used that same criteria against Hollywood, the actors would only be able to play hippies and mental patients.
Well, I am expecting a big GOP win, and so is Gallup:
"Gallup predicts an even bigger GOP victory in 2010 than in 1994. According to the latest data from the Gallup Organization, the GOP is poised in just less than a week to make gains in the midterm elections that dwarf even those from 1994. . ."
