Do you see the Democratic tidal wave hitting New York State hard?

[Daylin Byak]

I do. In my opinion(and I could be wrong) but out of the 15 seats the Democrats need for a majority of the House I see 7 out of those 15 coming seats coming from New York. In my opinion Democrat Mike Arcuri can win in Sherwood Boehlert's open seat and if there campaign are effective Democrat can win back Districts 3(Peter King), 19(Sue Kelly), 20(John Sweeney), 29(Randy Kuhl) and possibly the 25th District(Jim Walsh). And I know the obvious pick-up is the 26th District which is represented by Tom Reynolds, the chairman or the NRCC and one of the main guys who tried to cover up the scandal of Congressman Mark Foley.

Let's face it NY Democrats, by 2007 if we play our cards right Republican Congressmen from New York could be virtually wiped off the Congressional map, cause with all the vulnerable Incumbents that are running against great candidates mixed in with in corruption, ethic questions and a page sex scandal the Democratic base is reved up and excited go out November 7 and vote while the Republican voters in NY are pissed off at there base may just stay home in disgust, and with Senator Clinton and future Governor Elliot Spritzer on top of the ticket this year, it just get worse for the Repuke Party.

Of course that just my opinion, I could be right and I could be wrong.

2. All that sounds right to me

I think the "top of the ticket" factor you speak of will push many of these Dems over the top; that current polls are counting many R's who will stay home in disgust ... plus the GOP scandals have lots of play left and may get even worse before E-day

3. We owe it to the other

states that have a lot more junk to wade through to GOTV with as many volunteers as possible. We can earn more victories here with fairer results. We should take it on our shoulders to take advantage- it won't be better or fairer than this- and break the GOP levees in NY.
