I told you that Democrats are believing their own press, about a “November Wave”. The fact is that the “wave” has been “crashing” for a while.
“With polling numbers in the Maryland Senate Democrat primary now showing that relative outsider, former congressman and former head of the NAACP Kweisi Mfume is leading Rep. Ben Cardin in some polls above the margin of error, national Democrats are growing progressively pessimistic that they will make serious gains in the November elections.
Mainstream media outlets have been attempting over the past few weeks to slowly let the air out of a balloon they themselves filled with their abundant hot air about Democratic momentum moving toward a potential retaking of both houses of Congress.
“We probably started that drumbeat too early and we’re losing a lot of that momentum,” says a Democratic political strategist. “You could blame a lot of things, Howard Dean, and some of our more established candidates, but I would blame the Lieberman/Lamont race and the blogosphere. Things just move too fast nowadays.”
Which is why you see the Washington Post and the New York Times running stories all weekend about a “Democratic Wave” in November, but yet with a little timidity in their words as you read between the lines. Fact is that they are waning in polls as the public sees that they have no agenda (except impede and impeach Bush), and that they are all full court sell outs to the far socialist left.
In otherwords, “wolves in sheeps clothing”. Not what the American public wants during a time of war.

Betsy links to some thoughts by Jim Geraghty on the same subject. Very interesting. But I didn’t get a review copy of his book, like Betsy did! [...]
