My Poll says...
It's a dead heat. It's too close to call. Unless the Democrats can get out the vote, the Repubs will maintain control of the House and Senate. All those other polls don't have any idea what they are talking about. My Poll consists of three people, Me, Myself, and I.

The reason My Poll is so close is because it shows that the Republicans that were polled are in denial. They do not believe anything will get worse with Dubya and the GOP in power. They have no concerns because they believe their party has better answers and solutions than do the Democrats. They are optimistic about the next two years.

Likewise, the Democrats are not optimistic about the next two years. They see a quagmire in Iraq and they see an economy that is built on sand. They have no faith that this Administration knows what they are doing or what they are talking about.

This election is one of reverse realities - the stronger the Parties show in the polls, the weaker they will be on election day. Because a close election makes the Republican voter think hard and long, moreso than an election where they may think they do not have a snowball's chance.

Conversely, in this election, if the Democrats think they are far ahead, they may be inclined to think their vote is not as important, as if it were a very close election. Therefore, My Poll, takes into account the political maneuverings of the MSM and their propagandistic manipulation of voters by their numbers and prognostications. That is why I say this election is a toss-up - just to spite the propagandists.

1. My wise 'ol owl poll says the Senate will stay pub.
Rove will Diebold Missouri, Virginia, and Tennessee. Those races are dead heats and there's not a damn thing anyone can do to dispute the puke wins. That will put the Senate at 49-51 pub. Lieberman will be off the hook so he wont have to caucus with the republicans. So unless Olympia Snowe and Susan Collins pull a 'Jeffords,' we're screwed. On the bright side, it will be something to shoot for in 2008. 33 more Senate seats come up for reelection.
I think the House is a lost cause for Rove and he knows it. No way he can stop the democratic tsunami of non-dieboldable victories. John Conyers: Bring It On!

2. You, yourself and you?
You probably should have extended your poll a good bit. Had you talked with more than the one of you, you would recognize that the publicans are going down.

This election will be a landslide!
