GOP Poised To Retake Senate In November As Disillusioned Democrats Depart

Several congressional retirements and a number of vulnerable Democrats seeking re-election may give the Republicans a clear shot at regaining the Senate in this year's November elections.

"There's trouble in paradise for Democrats," Bradley Blakeman, a former adviser to President George W. Bush, told Newsmax in an interview. "Incumbent Democrats don’t like their chances in 2014.

"They've had enough of Washington," said Blakeman, who lectures on politics and public policy at Georgetown University. "They have a record that they would have to defend and a president that they would have to defend.

"I don't like the Democrats' chances if I were a Democrat. Democrats would not only lose House seats, but they're also very much in danger of losing the Senate."

That proves that we're more alike than anyone cares to admit.The prospect of current and future hardships has a tendancy to wake people up,but it reveals a clear lack of vision that began in 2008.They can't deny that they fell for it then,and again in 2012.

The tea party will screw that up with their off the wall candidates that no one will vote for.

Unless the Republican party collectively agrees upon winnable candidates instead of splitting the vote (recent VA race come to mind?), the Dems will hold on with their base of takers!
