... in at least five Nevada news stations and online publications show Senator Reid won the debate against his ill prepared opponent....
I have said it before, you have to be 'in it' to win it. Now that Democrats are home and making face to face contact with people the polls are showing the gap favoring Republicans is closing.
Constituencies forget why they elected their incumbents in the first place. A candidate has to go home, shake their hand, kiss the kids and state, "Remember when I ran before how I said I would work for what you wanted? Did I do that? Do you actually think the banking failure was the fault of the policies of Democrats? Let's get real now and realize what we value together. Please, vote for me."
...With only 18 days left until Election Day, (click here) an NPR survey of likely voters in battleground districts found that while the overall field still tilts to the GOP, Democrats are closing the gap in some places.
The good news for Democrats is that they have improved their position in 58 of the battleground districts. In June, Democratic candidates trailed their Republican opponents in these districts by 8 points. Now, the GOP advantage is only 3 points....
The Middle Class. Hello?
The interesting aspect of this graph is the reduction in "other" voters. While that came down by 2 %, the Democrats increased their 'clout' by 3% while the Republicans lost 2%. It seems as though some folks voting for Republicans have given it a second thought and have AT LEAST moved to the 'other / undecided' column, while 'other / independents' are moving toward a sound record by Democrats in support of the Middle Class.
Go, Democrats, Go !

The candidates need to point out to people how much the Democrats have worked so hard in pass beneficial legislation over the past two years. President Obama and Congress were tireless in passing reform and stimulating the economy.
Get the electorate thinking for themselves; rather than being indoctrinated by rhetoric.
We learned a lot about how deteriorated the USA infrastructure that Republicans for decades were successful in hiding up to now.
We need to continue to improve on the record over the past two years and in order to do that voters have to put the Democrats back into office.
Democrats believe in a strong Middle Class. Republicans don't ! Republicans have no use for a strong Middle Class that receives good wages for work.
They believe in a two tier social system. The rich and the poor. Heck, the Republicans even want to rid the USA of the minimum wage. Globally, First World nations are looking to improve their minimum wage, but, not Republicans.
Where to Republicans believe THE PURCHASING POWER is in the USA?
With them?
No.

Republicans down by 2% = 11% + 2% or 13% 'other.' But, Democrats are up by 3%. So of the 13%, three percent moved into the Democratic column, while one percent of the undecided was absorbed into the Republican column losses. That means the Republicans were actually down three percent and not just two percent.
No matter how one does the math, it is looking good.
..."This is still an election that it would be very hard for Democrats to hold the House with these numbers," Greenberg said. "But there is movement here and it's not trivial movement."...
