Commentary: Tsunami to Blast Obama and Democrats

by John LeBoutillier

November 1, 2010

My Final Prediction: Tuesday will be an historic Election Day as the Republican Party – fueled by the Tea Party movement – will win back over 50 seats in the House and up to 8 seats in the US Senate.

The crucial Independent Voter – the key swing voter who always determines winners and losers – has swung away from Obama and back to the Right in 2010. That, plus the Passion Differential (Republicans/conservatives will vote in droves while dispirited and demoralized Dems stay home), will change the political scene in Washington at least for the next two years.

As for President Obama, in a perverse way, his own 2012 re-election chances improve with a GOP Congress to attack, blame (he is the master at blaming everyone but himself) and play off of. But, for now, he is the cause of the GOP resurgence.

Bye bye, Harry Reid and Speaker Pelosi. We will not miss you!
