(CBS) With many polls indicating the Republicans may win back control of the House of Representatives (and possibly the Senate as well) in the upcoming mid-term elections, Jim VandeHei, the executive editor of Politico, told CBS’ “Face the Nation” that the Obama administration is in a horrible position.
“Does the White House understand this?” asked guest host Harry Smith. “Do you feel any sense of panic or concern” on the part of the administration?
“They get it. There’s panic. There’s concern,” VandeHei said. “The reality for this administration stinks, politically and practically, when it comes to the economy. You’re not going to be able to change that 9.6-percent unemployment figure. You can’t get anything from Congress in the next couple of months.”
CBS Congressional correspondent Nancy Cordes said the Democrats are distancing themselves from President Obama.

Someday? They’ve not got long to wait. Obama and his bunch are going to reap what they have sown. There’s no doubt about that.
Another thing……the NAACP and their so-called ‘Tea Party Tracker’ group. Prepare for infiltrators posing as Tea Party folk waving signs plastered with racist and other hate statements. Imposters making outrageous statements to the salivating MSM. The lefties, socialists and those others who simply believe that your money is theirs are furious, but even more so they are terrified. Via the polls and the recent Washington rally they are helplessly watching the ‘golden goose’ they thought they had in the bag 20 months ago heading south. Their dirty tricks bag is full and one thing they’re not afraid of doing is opening it up. Expect it, wait for it, and be prepared.
This week’s CNN generic Congressional ballot shows the GOP up 7% over Democrats. It would appear the Rasmussen’s poll (last week) of a 12% spread was not an outlier. This will be an fascinating election. According to Dick Morris, its only after the September long weekend that the electrolate starts to pay attention. Buckle up, turbulence ahead. Cheers.
