The Stupid Party may not take the Senate after all according to this article. It was only weeks ago that Republicans appeared likely to win control of the U.S. Senate in November. As pollsters began to shift over to likely voter models after Labor Day, their findings were not surprising; Republicans were much more enthusiastic about heading to the polls in November, and the generic congressional ballot began to show the public favored the GOP over Democrats by wide margins. The state-level polling, however, is telling a different story. As more surveys of key battleground races are taken, election forecasters are revising their predictions. Probability models from a variety of respected analysts are now indicating that the race for control of the Senate is, at best, a tossup. Some are even leaning toward the notion that Democrats will retain control of the chamber. Wouldn’t surprise me a bit. I’m still holding to my prediction that of the six Dimocrat senators up for reelection in red states, three of them will win. Further down in the article it predicts Kay Hagan may be one of them. Much of this tightening is due to a spate of recent polling from North Carolina that suggests that the embattled incumbent Democratic Sen. Kay Hagan may hold on to her seat in a state Mitt Romney won in 2012. The voters don’t like Obungler and they don’t like Obummercare, yet they’re willing to send an Obumbler supporter and someone who voted for Obummercare back to the Senate. Amazing! Never put it past the Stupid Party to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. Tell me again what a genius Karl Rove is. hotair/archives/2014/09/16/election-forecasters-giving-up-on-gop-senate-models-looking-more-democratic-by-the-day/
