With Apologies to Hedwig : Nate and the Angry SIX



Map and Poll god, Nate Silver, now of the NYT, has come out with his latest , almost never wrong prediction for the mid terms . HERE is the entire interactive breakdown. ( I so  Nate and the NYT during elections! )

House R+6

Six stupid districts in the entire country, one of which is my own. We have been with out a congressman since Tickle Me Elmo stepped down under all that hullabaloo. A fantastic young fresh aggressive Iraq vet named  Matt Zeller is the Democratic candidate, but due to some age old and way silly state GOP gerrymandering, he does not really stand that much of a chance. ( really, it gets down to road by road in the heavy Democratic urban parts of his district )

So,  a swing of seven lousy seats and the house stays Democratic, and the President is doing his best to squash his base. Go figure....
