WASHINGTON (Reuters) - A top Republican lawmaker brushed off bad poll numbers on Wednesday and said his party would surprise analysts and Democrats by strengthening its grip on the U.S. House of Representatives in November elections.
"We have a good story to tell," House Speaker Dennis Hastert of Illinois told reporters as he emerged from a closed-door meeting with fellow Republicans, many of whom are worried about their own chances for political survival.
Hastert's prediction of election victory heartened many Republicans, caught others off guard and drew some ridicule.
"Either he is out of touch or has contempt for his audience," said Stu Rothenberg of the nonpartisan Rothenberg Political Report that tracks congressional races.

Why can they admittedly steal elections with such bravado? Because the American public just doesn't give anymore a shit as long as they can afford to fill up the ol' gastank on the 12mpg SUV at $3/gallon, and as long as we can pay off the last credit card with the one we just got - they'll find a way to justify rolling over for whatever happens here or in Iraq, Afghanistan, where-ever, no matter how heinous or stupid it may be.
