2010 Mid-Term Elections

[Coburn In 2012]

I really think this is what will happen.

Obama will so screw up the country as he already seems to be doing that people will be sick of him and the Democrats.  Just remember what Bill Clinton experienced just two years into his failed administration!

Now I don't think there will be a 1994 style sweep for us.  I wish!  But I think we could pick up two or three Senate seats, regain the House and grab back a number of statehouses.

People got so sick of Bill Clinton that they re-elected him in 96 by even wider margins.

Clinton's win in 1996 did nothing for the Democrats.  In fact it may have even hurt them.  He governed pretty much as a Republican in his second term and kept Democrats from retaking the House in 1998.  Remember, if Democrats have a bad 2010, they will likely be shut out of the House until 2022 because Republicans will control gerrymandering. 

He didn't govern as a Republican.  He didn't govern at all.  Congress governed and mostly we were better for it.  We kept him in check which is what I wish we could do with Obama.
