Welcome Back!

My own personal August recess is over, and though my posting will not be as prolific as it might have been earlier in the year, it will be more focused on the elections. Labor Day is the traditional beginning of campaign season, so here we go.

WaPo has a great analysis of the problems the GOP faces this fall, but one thing is clear in their conversations with operatives on both sides: no one's sure what's goin' down. Personally speaking, I expect the GOP to lose seats in both Houses, but I don't expect a '94 style tide.

Also noteworthy: the NRCC has backed the more electable candidate in the AZ-08, increasing their chances of holding that seat.
