Democrats excited about their House of Delegate prospects?
By JR Hoeft | Thursday, October 15th, 2009 | PoliticsA friend sent me a link from the national Democratic National Legislative Campaign Committee.
You would think with three weeks to go in a campaign that sees all 100 seats up for election in the House of Delegates – a legislative house the Democrats were eager earlier this year about gaining the majority – there would be all sorts of information regarding the state of the races.
Instead, the site offers only a scant update on the Minority Leader, HD-20, HD-100, and a couple stops by Kaine.
That’s hardly what I would call “energy” leading to a “takeover” of the House. Compare this to yesterday’s post where Republicans are thinking they can capture anywhere between 3-8 seats this cycle.
Clearly the momentum is with the GOP right now. (Of course, looking at the RSLC or the HRCC web sites, you wouldn’t know it either).
