Let’s Send Them Diving Under Their Beds

The New York Times has a piece about what would happen to Democrats should they fail to take control of the House and/or Senate:

“Two years ago, winning 14 seats in the House would have been a pipe dream,” said Matt Bennett, a founder of Third Way, a moderate Democratic organization. Now, Mr. Bennett said, failure to win the House, even by one seat, would send Democrats diving under their beds (not to mention what it might do to all the pundits).

“It would be crushing,” he said. “It would be extremely difficult.”

Mr. Cook put it more succinctly. “I think you’d see a Jim Jones situation — it would be a mass suicide,” he said.

Now is the time to get out and vote. We need to retain control of the House and Senate and send the Democrats and their pundits running for cover. Retention of both chambers would be a fatal blow to the Democrats and that means we need to strike that blow now.
