36. Yes
He's relying on aggregate polling which is only reliable and of utility for the time period in which the polling was conducted. Throw in the historical date that suggest the in party loses seats during a mid term election and you would be forced to conclude that if the mid terms were next Tuesday we would suffer serious setbacks. But the mid terma are not next Tuesday.

And as I said up thread we care coming off three big losses in a row in VA, NJ, and MA with a goober winning Ted Kennedy's Senate seat.

Let's hope and work to make things change.

And if we were to actually gain seats in November I would be so chastened as to not prognosticate on anything.
