SocraticGadfly: A swing state swing this fall?

A swing state swing this fall?

Although Republican National Committee Chairman Michael Steele doesn't believe the GOP will take over the House, it looks like that could, nonetheless, still be a possibility.

Why? An anti-incumbent mood, perhaps, especially if the economy doesn't show more signs of life soon. Anger over national health care, maybe. Ongoing, and expanding, wars.

Of course, what this all boils down to, Bob Herbert notes, is that promised "change" is not being delivered. That's you, Obama.

Oh, but with the number of House Republicans retiring, maybe they have no more confidence than Steele.
