The republicans are making their way to sweep over the government. You could say a “GOP Tsunami Crashes over Congress.” Scenario three will be the way the election turns out. The supporters of the Republican Party came out strong on Election Day while the democrats fell short. The other two options are not an option at this point. Voters get into “honeymoon” stages, they want more. Some expected a lot from President Obama, and he let even more of them down. The citizens of America are disappointed, so we’re making a change. Voters will stand strong for the GOP and finally change our government.
Less than a quarter of electorates say our government is headed in the right direction. This is shocking and disappointing. In states where economy is weak the blame is laid on Obama, so voting republican is some people’s only out. These are the results I feel will be true as of tonight. However, stranger things have happened in past elections, and polls are not always correct.

NOV 2nd Election
Democrats just might take a nose dive after this midterm election with all of the frustrated voters. Polls show that Americans are unhappy with the present government and want some change. There are a few outcomes that might come out of the election. Republicans will gain there victory in the house and will still be the minority in the senate. Or the Republicans will gain enough support with the frustrated voters and just take complete control being the majority in the government.
It is predicted that the Republicans will win 39 house seats and only possibly lose 9 seats will give them majority. The senate on the other hand as really close races so it is hard to see how much each party will gain even though the republicans are looking to gain seats but wont gain quit enough to win the senate. For the most part this will be a great victory for the republicans.
But will all of this change be good for the United States? Democratic President + Republican house = nothing accomplished. The too groups will not get along and the house will shut down most of the democratic ideas that will come from the senate so we are still in the same crap hole. It doesn't matter who control the house or senate what matters is how many people are in the government that are willing to cooperate and in our history this will not happen after this election.

Big Money: Outside Groups Spending for Republicans
A year ago, two of the top Republican Strategists calculated how to exploit the voter anger that had erupted at Democratic town hall meetings that summer. There is an estimated $3.5 billion expected to be spent on this years campaigning. This amount is a record for a midterm election. The deep- pocketed groups have reversed past preeminence by Democratic outside groups and have become the prototype for future elections. This effort has played a huge part in the $246 million in outside group spending so far in this election. Rove, Ed Gillespie and Steven law fear that the Republicans alone won't be able to match the fund-raising that Obama has exhibited in the previous election.
If voters seemed angry, so was corporate America. Obama led Congress into passing health care and financial regulation overhauls and pushed for climate legislation, all of which has angered business people. The advantage held by the GOP helped cancel out the edge the Democratic party had over them. Together both groups have spent $1billion on political advertisements. Many Democratic- leaning groups have tried to help match the amount of money raised by the GOP and have been almost even with the Republican groups for the past six days.
In order to fulfill the plan Rove, Gillespie and Law designed requires that the Republican constituencies unite behind the economic messages. The biggest donors would have to match or exceed the amounts they had given during the 2008 election. This 2010 midterm election has emphasized the use of non-profit and tax exempt organizations in politics.

Midterm Elections
The midterm elections are right around the corner and this one could change the way our government is ran for quite some time. In past elections the Republican party has taken big hit in numbers of seats filled in Congress. In just this election they can make up over five years of huge losses in the polls. There is a chance that the Democrats could lose the House but not the Senate but that is very unlikely. It is either one or the other.
An option of the midterm elections is that the Republicans can take it all and make up for big losses in number of seats in Congress. The Democrats would lose all of their majority and their chance for legislation to be passed in their favor. The other option is that the Democrats to lose very little seats and maintain a slim majority but a majority none the less. Overall this a very important election and will change the face of our government.

Midterm Elections: All Doom and Gloom?
Obviously the midterm elections will have a major impact on the political system. All that matters is whether the Republicans can beat out the Democrats. If the Republicans can drive out the Democrats then we may see our crippled yet healing economy take a staggering nose dive, and if the Democrats can cling to their positions then we may see an economic increase. The Democrats have three fates 1): They can hold all of their positions in office, 2): They can lose the House of Representatives and cling to the Senate, or 3): Congress can fall entirely to the Republicans.
If the Democrats can hold their own, that will be because of a late base turnout according to CQ politics. If the Democrats lose the House and cling to the Senate (which would be a first since World War Two) then that would be because voters are not ready to “embrace the GOP but rather reject the direction of the Government,” states CQ politics. Should the Democrats lose bout chambers of congress, well that shows that the Democrats were merely a “Flavor of the Mouth” for the voters suffering from the stagnant economy. The Washington Post believes that does not state as to whom will win out in the up coming Midterm, however they do make certain that the race will be a close one. Politico takes a more cynical view to the election. The writer Joe Scarborough says that the future of the American republic does not depend on Tuesdays’ election. He says “Instead, the election will decide whether America will be $16.4 trillion or $16.5 trillion in debt.”
