Today in the Washington Examiner November 1, 2010
Byron York - On election eve, Harry Reid faces prospect of defeat
Searchlight, Nevada - Ask the people of Harry Reid's hometown what they think about their neighbor and senator, and they'll give pretty much the same answer as the rest of Nevadans. They're divided.
But ask a little more and it appears they might be leaning, ever so slightly, toward dumping the man who has represented them in Congress since 1983, and replacing him with Republican challenger Sharron Angle.
Timothy P. Carney - Election 2010: A correction, not a revolution
America probably won't wake up Wednesday to a new political reality. More likely we'll realize that the last four years didn't quite reflect reality, and we've been living in a Republican country all along.
Michael Barone - Obama's economists missed what voters plainly saw
Heading into what appears to be a disastrous midterm election, the Obama Democrats profess to be puzzled. The president's record, they insist, is moderate, accommodating, if anything overcautious. So why do most American voters seem to be angrily rejecting it?
That's one way of looking at it. Another way is to say that the Obama administration and the Democratic Congress have increased government's share of gross domestic product from 21 percent, where it's hovered for the last several decades, to about 25 percent and have put the national debt on a trajectory to increase from 40 percent to 90 percent of GDP.
Voters have noticed -- and don't like it.
Susan Ferrechio - GOP expected to romp Tuesday when angry voters go to polls
Democrats are expecting a whopping rebuke Tuesday from voters who are poised to back Republicans in historic numbers despite their palpable disdain for both parties.
David Freddoso - The ultimate Washington Examiner election guide
For political junkies planning to keep score on Tuesday night, here’s a guide to races of particular interest, in order of poll closing times. There are roughly 500 federal and governors' elections, so I've tried to leave out as many non-competitive races as possible, unless they represent pickups for one party or the other.
