Article PhotoThe 2014 midterm election is shaping up as something the United States has not seen in nearly a decade: a campaign run in a strengthening economy with deficits on the decline.
No one is popping champagne corks yet, and risks remain. But the altered terrain, if it holds, could benefit Democrats and challenge Republicans whose rise to power in the House in 2010 came via a tea party movement that blasted President Barack Obama and his party for ignoring a stagnant economy and piling up an endless run of trillion dollar deficits.
Times have changed since 2010. Barring a fresh crisis — and there are certainly a few that could arise — many economists expect growth to return to a fairly healthy level by next year as house prices and the stock market continue to rise and the jobless rate falls closer to its historic average of 5.8 percent.
with no plan of their own spending all their time trying to sink the country so you won't vote Democratic as idiotic a reason as that is it's a reality.  so gear up fellow Americans you think they are obstructionist juveniles now where here comes the boom.
The federal deficit is around half the size it was when the tea party reached its apex, due to tax hikes, spending cuts and stronger growth.
Consumer confidence this week hit a level not seen since the financial crisis rocked the economy in 2008. And economists say there is enough time between now and when voters go to the polls next November for the improvements to actually be felt throughout the economy.

they are not only afraid of losing the election regardless to all the skulduggery they've employed not making that much difference, they know lies don't work but that won't stop them.  
they fear their cushy life at the taxpayers expense and he well being of the elderly and poor going away and their quiet reign of tyranny broken and the founding guys they always try to quote words of "we the people, in order to form a more perfect union......"  just doesn't fit in to their agenda
