GOP officials are preparing to lose at least 7 House seats this November and and as many as 30, reports the Washington Post.
The predictions can no longer be dismissed as hype. A solid majority of Americans believe that Hastert should resign as speaker and nearly half, 45%, believe that he should resign from Congress. Despite a column in the New York Times by John Tierney, in which he discusses the illogical reasoning behind backing Republicans on foreign policy grounds, Americans now trust Democrats more to deal with terror than Republicans. Democrats win on the economy, Iraq, education, and the environment. Republicans support among Evangelicals has fallen 22% since 2004, despite attempts to garner their support through gay marriage ballot initiatives.
Our government should be considerably more Democratic next month.
