Preview of What's Ahead

On Saturday Bolling and McDonnell spoke to attendants of Rep. Bob Goodlatte’s picnic in support of the three republican candidates who are leading in the polls. During his speech Bolling encouraged supporters, “We’re in the fourth quarter with four to five mintues left and we can’t stop playing now.’’ Bolling said before the picnic that he believes the Republican campaign is having so much success in part because of their talks of creating more jobs and focusing on the economy.

That could be the reason Republicans are having so much success this year or it could be because of the growing public dissatisfaction with the Democratic party, a theory Karl Rove stated in a Wall Street Journal article from earlier this week. Rove suggested that a major reason many independent voters are turning away from the Democrats is because of Obama’s handling of the deficit earlier this year, with polls showing that a growing number of people are unhappy about how the problem was dealt with. As well as the highly publicized healthcare issue.

Rove believes that Congressional Democrats will take a huge hit in the next Congressional elections. These upcoming elections will definitely serve as a forecast for those in Congress up for re-election next year. Let’s all just hope this election turns out the right way, with Bill Bolling winning.
