If the GOP wins, Obama's reelection odds go slightly up, but he is favored to get releected either way.

If the GOP does particularly well in the midterms, it's pretty clear that the Dems need to follow their example and make up as many false smears as possible. It doesn't really matter how plausible they are. Death panels. Government takeovers. Socialism. Etc. We need to formulate our equivalents.

Spoken like a true democrat. Way to be and at least you're honest.

It's also spoken like a true republican...

We tried bi-partisan politics.  It didn't work, we rebounded, we got our bills passed anyways.

If the Republicans win back anything (which is intensely unlikely according to the polls), they deserve a taste of their own medicine.

What are you talking about,

Most major and reputable polls show the Republicans favored.

I was talking winning back either the House or Senate, which only political hacks believe they will do.

No it's not just hacks. It's only out of touch democrats who think they have a lock on either house.

Also besides, many reputable political commentators have also speculated that the GOP can retake ether or both Houses.

The GOP has a small chance of retaking the House but essentially no chance at taking over the Senate.
