How hard in the wind blowing in the republican's faces? The Fix over at the Washington Post has decided to expand their Friday list of the ten most likely House seats to change hands to twenty races. Democrats hod the edge in picking up fifteen of those seat.
AS bad as things are going for republicans, things could be a lot worse. A mild winter kept them out of the home heating costs crosshairs. Yes, heating costs were up this year, but a harsh winter would have sent those costs to a breaking point, and unlike Iraq, voters would have gotten to see the money coming out of their pockets in an up close and personal manner with only a republican led Congress to vent their frustrations on. They luckily avoided a winter of discontent.
Actually, the republicans have benefited from mild winters the last couple of cycles. Lucky them.
Of course, as nature giveth, she also taketh away. This coming hurricane season is forecast to be as bad as last year's, which should put voters in a Katrina state of mind as they go to the polls with fresh memories of this year's storms, and hopefully, only reminders of last year's failures.
