5. And Ezra Klein details why ...

Very, very unlikely. (But not a bad way to gin up the Teapublican base for donations ... to which I say: "FU!")

2. Yeah just like they always promise to ban abortion when they are in control
and surprise! They never do. They'll use it to squeeze money out of the angry and scared without actually doing anything, like they do with all their "big" social issues.

7. Say it with me: Republicans MUST win 290 seats or
They failed. Keep repeating it, just like the media kept repeating the "Dems must win 60 Senate seats" line.
