Prediction: The GOP will take the Senate

I don't know what you are talking about. RCP is one of my sources.

Well RCP has Virginia in a tie, and has been that way for a week. Rasmussen has Romney +3 trending up.

Mourdock is leading in Indiana by +5 as well.

And you just posted a flurry of polling data NOT from RCP, but another source. That's why I wondered.

indiana changed today, there is no poll yet confirming it yet. I like RCP but like election projection better because they have been more accurate in the past.
 
Even though RCP has Obama leading 'comfortably' in Wisconsin, I will point out, a couple of months ago, RCP polling showed Scott Brown was going to be recalled, and that didn't transpire. Now, I don't know, maybe Dems in Wisconsin are too stupid to properly cast a ballot? But the polling data just didn't match the results in that case. I certainly wouldn't bank on Obama winning Wisconsin just yet.

LOL... Okay, so despite the fact that even your hand-picked sources can't confirm it, you have? That's RICH! Why even bother going to the sites and checking? Why not just proclaim that all the votes will go to Obama because you feel like they will? Seems to be the system you're wanting to use here.
 
This thread and my posts are about the Senate, not the presidental race. LOL!

Doesn't matter if you're going to jump around from source to source or completely abandon all sources in order to derive a desired result. The best method is to pick a source and stay with it, and accept what it's telling you as far as the trend is going. Even then, you need to factor in voter enthusiasm and how many of those polled are going to actually cast a vote.

Things are looking bad for Obama right now, and the Senate looks like it could go +1 Dem or +1 Rep, so not much change. The House will likely pick up a few Republican seats as well. It's just funny, a week or so ago, you were intently focused on the RCP average, as if it were The Gospel and irrefutable... now you are running off to another source, because you don't like what the RCP average is saying.

The following GOP candidates will almost certainly win. In each case, either the polls are on their side or momentum appears to be in their favor.

Rehberg (MT)
Flake (AZ)
Thompson (WI)
Berg (ND)
Allen (VA)

Minus lost seats in MA and ME (Pocahontas and King will win), that would put the GOP at 50 seats, with Paul Ryan breaking the tie.

Payback is gonna be a bitch. :)

There are 23 dems up for grabs. There's no way the reps won't be the majority.

Obamacare has really screwed the dems.

They're about to get sh*t on.

Big time!!!!!!!

There's still 2014 coming as well.
