Senate Race Polls Lean Toward Dems, So Media Starts Pro-GOP Spin


On Tuesday, there was really good news for Democrats. The latest polls showed them pulling neck and neck to keep control of the Senate, data modelers like Nate Silver were adjusting their percentages to nearly 50/50, and Republicans were getting nervous.

Let the spin machine begin. Our so-called "liberal media" couldn't wait to step on the accelerator pedal for why things suck for Democrats. Behold a sampling of today's headlines:

Notice all of the Pro GOP Headlines in the nation's media......

They will all act so totally dumbfounded like in 2012 when they were boosting Romney's chances to an outrageous degree and wound up looking stupid and out and out of touch. And they still, to this day, seem to want to pretend that Mitt was a good candidate who some of them even think that he was right about some things and should have been POTUS.

If this hack is predicting a decisive GOP takeover, that would be encouraging news indeed, since Morris has a well-earned reputation for being a full 180 degrees off in his predictions.
