Not what I'm saying, Preech. Don't get them panties in a bunch yet. But do look back at exit polls. What I'm saying is the split has been close enough to fifty fifty the last couple of times around for low level dirty tricks and scumbag chicanery to make the difference.

Now maybe both parties get caught, but it seems to me the big stories that came out, and the ONLY conviction so far where on the R side. Not to say it's beneath the D's, but the R's have a jump on them currently in organization and a better track reeocrd at playing hardball and lowball.

It's like those stupid roll playing card games, where one chracters special ability is "Wins all ties".

As long as we are a neck and neck country, or even close, I think the R's will hold onto power. All this talk about a Democratic retaking of either house relies on an awful lot of slim victories. I think only when folks are disgusted enough for polls to reveal significant margins do D's have a chance of getting back in the rivers seat and immediately seeing if they can be as or more corrupt than the R's have been.
