Yes, it appears as if Mitch McConnell is confident of victory in November:
"It appears to me that if the election were held today, there would be a midcourse correction," McConnell said. "I'm not here today to spike the ball in the end zone, to use a sports metaphor, but I do think that the American people are, I don't want to overstate this, close to appalled by the level of government that we have today and would like to see it stopped."
McConnell said his sense is that voters want more balance politically, because they're concerned about one party "having too much power." Besides the White House, Democrats control both the House and Senate.

Of course, he fails to mention what happened when one party, his party controlled the House, Senate, the White House and the Supreme Court. Lets give him a reminder. Two failed wars that cost trillions. Massive deregulation that crashed the economy, caused the Gulf Oil Spill, and caused more worker's lives to be endangered if it cost Corporate America a skinny red cent. The list goes on as Democrats try to clean up the Republican mess. Lets just hope for the sake of our country that McConnell's skills as a modern day Nostradamus are about as good as his skills singing:
However, Kentucky's Democratic Party Chairman Don Logsdon begged to differ:
"Voters are still appalled at the eight years of the Cheney-Bush agenda that brought us record deficits and out-of-control spending, he said. "And for six years, the Republican congress never did anything to check the behavior of those in the Bush administration."
"Voters are not going to so easily forget who got us into this mess, as the Republicans hope, and I think they'll give Democrats credit for pursuing policies to get us out of this economic crisis," he said.
Unfazed, McConnell went on to speak of President Obama being "born again":
Big wins for the GOP in November, McConnell said, would likely grab the attention of President Barack Obama and congressional Democrats, perhaps even turning Obama "into a born again moderate."
Which begs the question has Mitch McConnell been born again with Rand Paul in the Church of Aqua Buddha?? I mean it does appear that his strategy is to lie, and if he believes his own rhetoric the Church of Aqua Buddha has graduated from the "gateway" drug of Marijuana straight into smoking crack.
So now we see the grand strategy of Republicans this fall. Lie through your teeth about your record, hoping America will buy it. Lie through your teeth about what Democrats are doing and why, and in the end cap it off with a lot of prayer and fasting for your new God, "Aqua Buddha". Mammon is gonna be so jealous!!:
