The math is pretty clear. Republicans need 41 seats to win back control of the House, topple House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and make life even more difficult for President Obama.
As former Bush political guru Karl Rove (the master of the obvious) points out in a recent Wall Street Journal column, traditionally the party in power loses about 24 seats, and lots of anti-incumbent fervor puts Republicans in reach of exceeding that. In fact House minority leader John Boehner argues that 100 seats -- nearly one-fourth of the House -- are in play for Republicans.

I just hope the GOP doesn't get overconfident and take their eye off the ball, that is November 2010. We have to take back Congress. Can you imagine what kind of mandate that would give President Chucklenuts if he keeps control..... :banghead:

The repubs may win back the Sneate in 2012, but I don't see them taking back the house.

I see them not only taking back both the Senate and House, but the House in convincing fashion (over 100 seats changing sides). And, I see the political tsunami continuing in 2012, to the point where the Republicans have a fillibuster-proof majority in the Senate, and close to (if not more than) a 100-seat majority in the House. The lefty Dems have overreached, and the American public is pissed.

The Democrats will lose badly in the House races cause unemployment is rising rather than falling and spending and debt are increasing beyond manageable means. People are pissed at these spend crazy critters and will take it out on Repubs also.
