Gingrich Goes Bullish for 2010

This takes a lot of guts:

…Giving predictions for November’s midterms, Gingrich said House Republicans will pick up “somewhere between 40 and 65 or 70 seats” — enough to gain control of the House. “I believe John Boehner will be speaker in January,” he said.

Gingrich said he even sees a chance of Republican control of the Senate. “If they can beat Barbara Boxer [in California], I think that [Mitch] McConnell is going to be the Senate majority leader.”…

You say so, Newt – but now if it doesn’t come out that way, it will pretty much toast up your chances for the GOP nomination in 2012. On the other hand, if it works out, then Gingrich looks like a visionary.

As for me, I’m just hopeful for some solid gains and a continued revitalization of the American spirit. If we can knock the left on the head and emerge well placed for 2012, I’ll be happy…217 House members and 49 Senators is ok with me.
