Come election day next month, the GOP will easily take the House and win significant gains in the Senate and Governor's Mansions (and by the way, I'm a Republican now. My goal is to always vote with the winning side.).
Currently, everybody's top issue is the ECONOMY. And the domestic economy sucks (invest internationally). The developing world embodies the economic engine that will pull the world out of the Great Recession (caused by the U.S.) over the next couple of years.
And yup, the white, racist, knuckle dragging teabaggers will undoubtably proclaim a mandate come election day. But this is expected of mid-term elections. Even Reagan in his first term in the White House in November 1982 lost 27 seats in the House of Representatives to the Democrats. The Democrats took over the House with 269-166 advantage over the Republicans. Mid-term elections are always hard on the party in power. But a longer term question still remains: can Obama keep the Presidency in 2012? It will depend on three things: 1) Economy, 2) Economy, and 3) Economy.
