I just heard this morning that "warm weather favored the incumbents"...
It's such a joke...when the facts don't match their "predictions" and "conventional wisdom", we hear all sorts of reasons why.

I'm wondering what they will say if we actually take some more seats in Congress in November...

I'd love to find out.

2. If that happened....
I'd stay home just to listen to wailing and gnashing of teeth all day on talk radio. LOL

3. It could be legitmate... wouldn't be too hard to verify.
Just look at election results versus weather and do a simple correlation.
It'd probably only take a few hours.

4. Sure, that's what all the teabaggers will claim. Sounds like a great excuse for their 'revolution'
failing.

5. You would think those who were swept away with 'anti incumbent' fever
would be passionate enough to not let warm weather get in their way to get to the polls. Either that, or this 'revolution' was just a bunch of hot air invented by corporate groups and the media. :eyes:
