Republican Meltdown


And from Fred Barnes at the Weekly Standard:

How Bad Will It Be?

"A veteran Republican consultant says lavish spending on TV commercials in races he's involved in has largely failed to either boost the poll numbers of his Republican candidates or drive down those of Democrats. Worse, in blue states, the Democratic crossover vote on which Republican candidates often rely has dried up. Democrats have gone home in droves."

Update: Steve at The Left Coaster has the very same reaction as I have to news of the 'inexplicably upbeat' confidence of Bush and Rove.
