Midterm Roundup
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to an awfully special Midterm Roundup: Saturday Night Fever Edition! … except not at night... unless you're reading this at night.

A curious noise emanates from the great Southwest (probably just the cat), the conservative blogosphere is quite sure it’s never heard of this Ted Haggard fellow, and THE BIG 3 is back to a round number! The Midterm Roundup has run out of ideas for the final sentence of its intro and there’s still 4 mornings left. Suggestions appreciated!

A rash of newspaper endorsements and campaign trail cameos, some raised eyebrows in Texas’ 22nd, and Karl Rove’s proof that he knows more than anyone else who has ever lived. The Midterm Roundup apologizes if it has become ragged and incoherent. We’re just 1 freaking week away, people!

Joe Lieberman needs himself a new accountant, Mike DeWine wins! (the newspaper endorsement contest), and the Midterm Roundup defies the laws of space and time by watching every single Sunday morning show simultaneously. Just 1 day away from being 2 weeks away!

Without much substantive news on a Sunday morning, the Midterm Roundup is forced to resort to inane non-jokes and stupid references to get itself through to the end. But if nothing else, the last item is worth a read.

Hoooo! It’s been too long. Ned Lamont, Joe Lieberman, and yes even you Alan Schlesinger you old knave you – get back up here you guys.

“Whither Foleygate?” ?!? Part 2
Will Foleygate have any effect on the midterm elections? The Midterm Roundup is tired of arguing. YOU make the call!Midterm Roundup
“Whither Foleygate?” ?!?
To explain the odd punctuation, several reports and pieces in recent days claim to show or argue that Foleygate will have little impact on how voters vote in less than 4 weeks. The Midterm Roundup would like to ask those reports and pieces, “Um, are you serious?”Midterm Roundup

CQ Race-Rating Rampage ’06!
On Saturday morning Election Central brought you a rundown of 14 House race-rating changes by the nonpartisan Cook Political Report, with every single shift favoring the Democrats.

It Sucks to Be… Dennis Hastert Edition
Just like E!’s “It’s Good to Be” – only the opposite! Or if you’re more a fan of VH1’s “Best Week Ever,” we could alternately call this segment “Worst Week Ever, Dennis Hastert Edition.” It’s reader’s choice. Either way the point is the same: Speaker Dennis Hastert has had a pretty rough go of it this past week. Just how rough?
