I've Moved...

Not an insider. Not an outsider. A view of Washington from just inside the Beltway.

BECAUSE I AM moving to France in about 2 weeks, I'll have to make this my last post here. From now on I will be at a new blog called French for a While. And what a shame that I won't be 'inside the Beltway' during the Primary season.
It's tough to make a prediction, but if had to go with a choice today I'd say:
As my least favorite sports talk show host would say: I'm Out!

JIB WILL BE back with a new design and enhanced features in January of 2007.
AFTER MORE THAN a week away from a computer, there is much catching up to do. However, I'll spare the long comments about mid-terms in favor of some short highlights.

ELECTION DAY HAS arrived and JIB is away on business. More to come next week.
IT'S NOW TIME to give Stuart Rothenberg's predictions. According to his Political Report the House and Seante will fall this way:
ELECTION PROJECTION.COM HAS the mid-terms races falling this way:
IT'S TIME FOR predictions! Not mine, mind you, but those who do this kind of thing for a living. Larry Sabato is up first -- his predictons are printed in his column today at RCP. Sabato's Predictions:
Hmmm. This is clearly an optimistic prediction if you're a Democrat. To get to 51 in the Senate the Dems need to pick up two of the three 'big' races (TN, VA, MO), and that could be a tough task. With Ford losing a bit of ground in Tennessee, Webb and McCaskill will have to pull out victories if the Democrats hope to gain control. And let's not forget that this all assumes Democrat victories in PA, OH, RI, MD, and NJ. And in case you've already chalked-up MD for Cardin, take a look at the most recent polls: Steele is within 3 or 4 point now.
JIB will keep close tabs on the predictions of the prognosticators. Stay tuned.
