I've been in campaign meetings. Sometimes the atmosphere is grim. Your side is down, and you're looking to turn things around.

With three weeks to go until the election, and a poll released Monday showing the gubernatorial contestants neck and neck, both Democratic candidate Alex Sink and Republican rival Rick Scott went on the warpath, unleashing new attacks on each other.

Websites and organizations of every description are looking to draft former Gov. Jeb Bush and former U.S. Rep. Joe Scarborough, who now hosts a morning news show on MSNBC, into what probably will be a crowded field gunning for the Republican presidential nomination in 2012.

The current national mood ahead of the midterm elections is unfavorable for Democrats across the country. While that’s true for many parts of Florida, Senate District 14 isn’t one of them.

It's pretty clear that Democrats are less enthusiastic about voting this year than Republicans. The latest evidence comes from Gallup, which reports that Republicans' 3 percent edge in congressional voting among registered voters increases to 13 and 18 points when you include just those likely and very likely to actually vote.

A new Gallup poll shatters the conventional wisdom that Democratic congressional candidates can be rescued with high voter turnout this fall.

With less than a month to go until the general election, the dynamics are changing in the election for the U.S. Senate seat. U.S. Rep. Kendrick Meek, the Democratic candidate in the race, is turning his fire away from NPA-candidate Charlie Crist, and onto Republican candidate Marco Rubio, the front-runner in the race.

Immigration rights groups around the country are keeping up their efforts to revive the DREAM Act, the legislation that would allow immigrants to become citizens after spending two years in college or the military, even though it went down in flames last week.

NBC Universal is getting ridiculous with its shameless courting of President Obama. On the morning of Sept. 27, NBC's Matt Lauer interviewed Obama for a half-hour with no commercials. But it wasn't just on NBC. Their devotion to El Jefe is so transparent they aired it live on most of their other cable properties, including MSNBC, USA, Syfy, Bravo, Oxygen, Chiller, Sleuth, Universal HD and Universal Sports.
