Democrats Face Possible ‘House’ Of Horrors
GOP eyes biggest majority in Congress since Hoover
By Garth Kant — (WASHINGTON) While most of the media have been mesmerized by the Senate race in this year’s midterm election, it is the race for the House of Representatives that may become historic.Suddenly, Republicans are within striking distance of an overwhelming victory not seen since before the Great Depression.
Most political prognosticators had forecast the GOP would pick up between 5-to-10 seats in the House on Tuesday, Nov. 4.
But, the nonpartisan and highly respected Cook Report just revised its prediction of a GOP gain of 4-to-10 seats to 6-to-12 seats, with slightly larger gains not out of the question.
And that’s where history suddenly comes into play.
“If Republicans were to pick up 13 seats, they would win their largest majority since 1928, when Herbert Hoover was elected president,” wrote the Cook Report’s David Wasserman.
As WND reported, most of the attention has been focused on the Senate, because of the drama centered on 10 key races. The GOP needs to gain only six seats to retake the majority in the upper chamber, which would give Republicans control of the entire Congress for President Obama’s last two years in power, presuming they hold serve in the House.
And, as WND also reported, even the mainstream media strongly expect that will happen, with the Washington Post currently giving it a 90-percent chance and the New York Times rating it as a 70-percent likelihood.
But, in the last few days before the election, the momentum has swung even further in the Republicans’ favor, and Democrats are suddenly staring at the prospect of losing the Senate and enduring a possible bloodbath in the House.
• Nonpartisan political analyst Stuart Rothenberg predicts: “President Barack Obama is about to do what no president has done in the past 50 years: Have two horrible, terrible, awful midterm elections in a row.
• Nonpartisan political analysis from the Cook Report said: “Democrats are bracing for the possibility that election night could be uglier than they originally thought.”
• Politico reports: “[U]unexpected races are suddenly in play.”
• Even partisan leftist Al Hunt warns Republicans may stage a raid on the Democratic stronghold of New England, where: “[I]t’s distinctly possible they will win a majority” of the closely contested races.
A big GOP win would not shift the balance of power in the House, where Republicans already hold control. But a large victory would make it all the more difficult for Democrats to regain control in 2016, and that, analysts say, is what has them panicking.

Even more history – bad history, for the Democrats – could be in the making.
The Daily Mail observed that if Democrats manage to lose 21 seats, it would be “the worst successive results in midterm congressional elections in more than 60 years,” stretching back to when President Harry Truman lost 28 seats in 1950 and 55 in 1946.
“We’re in trench warfare. I’m not going to sugarcoat it,” New York Rep. Steve Israel, chairman of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, told the paper....
Is Pope Francis Intentionally Working To Create A Church Split?
NTEB News Desk —
It has only been a little more than a year and a half since Pope Francis assumed the the papal throne in Rome, but what an incredible time of change and upheaval it has brought to the Catholic faith. More than any other pope in recent memory, Francis seems to be a man on a mission. And that mission, for better or for worse, is changing the Catholic church and faith in myriad ways.The most startling of these changes occurred last month at the Synod where Pope Francis floated the trial balloon of welcoming openly-homosexual LGBT members into the church, resulting in a news media firestorm will forced the Vatican to issue a series of hastily-written denials.
The bible clearly says that the One World Church, as mentioned in Revelation 17 & 18, will be the Roman Catholic system which is described there in stunningly-accurate prophetical detail. But in order for the Vatican to fulfill their role, momentous change needs to take place. Under the leadership of Pope Francis, things are indeed changing rapidly....

Newsmax —
Republicans positioned themselves for a likely US Senate takeover after Tuesday's elections, emboldened by polls that show them pulling ahead of President Barack Obama's Democrats in the battle for power in Washington.Several battleground states like Alaska and North Carolina remained too close to call Monday, but with a number of factors tilting their way in recent days, Republicans were showing increased confidence in the home stretch of what could be one of the most consequential midterm elections in years.

Illegals To Decide U.S. Senate Fate
CleanTV: Family-Friendly Television and Video On Demand
Partial Transcript: Control of the U.S. Senate is up for grabs on November 4, and illegal voters may tip the balance. That's according to Eagle Forum founder Phyllis Schlafly who says estimates are that more than 14 percent of non-U.S. citizens were registered to vote in the elections of 2008 and 2010, and that could now easily exceed the margin of victory in many tight Senate races.
Democrats typically win more than 80 percent of the votes cast by non-U.S. citizens, so votes cast by non-citizens produce a net bonanza of additional votes for Democrats. Democrat Al Franken won a Republican U.S. Senate seat in Minnesota by a margin of only 312 votes in 2008, and with the immense power of incumbency he is expected to cruise to reelection this time.
New non-partisan research by professors at Old Dominion University uncovered the shocking amount of voting by non-citizens, as published by the Washington Post last Friday. Their work did not choose sides in the debate over whether non-citizens should be allowed to vote, which Congress has already answered in the negative by sensibly limiting voting in federal elections to only American citizens.
This study concluded that voter ID alone will not eliminate voting by non-citizens, because voter ID does not require proof of citizenship, such as a passport or birth certificate. But that loophole is easily closed by requiring proof of citizenship to register to vote, just as one must show proof of citizenship in order to obtain a passport.... read full transcript here

Illinois To Pass A Law So Illegals Can Vote
The Alex Jones’ Show - InfoWars.com
As it stands today, Republicans will add seats in the House and recapture the Senate on Tuesday.
However, the near-certainty is that those elections will be swiftly eclipsed by issues of war, peace, immigration and race, all of which will be moved front and center this November.
Consider. If repeated leaks from investigators to reporters covering the Ferguson story are true, there may be no indictment of Officer Darren Wilson, the cop who shot Michael Brown.
Should that happen, militant voices are already threatening, “All hell will break loose.” Police in the city and 90-some municipalities in St. Louis County, as well as the state police, are preparing for major violence

10 Examples Of The Extreme Incompetence
That Now Pervades The Federal Government
By Michael Snyder, End Of The American Dream —That Now Pervades The Federal Government
There has always been a substantial level of incompetence at federal agencies, but under the Obama administration incompetence has risen to unprecedented levels. This year the incompetence of the Secret Service, the Veterans Administration, the Department of Homeland Security and the CDC have all made national headlines. And it is hard to forget how the launch of Obamacare was such a failure that it became a global joke. We live at a time when our government officials can’t seem to do anything right. When Americans complain about the government, most of the time they focus on how corrupt and wicked our politicians have become, and that should not be downplayed whatsoever. But just replacing those politicians is not going to fix what ails our government. The quality of the workers throughout the government bureaucracy has fallen so dramatically that our federal agencies can no longer be depended upon to perform even the most basic governmental functions competently. The following are 10 examples of the extreme incompetence that now pervades the federal government…#1 The Secret Service
#2 The Obamacare Website
#3 Dropping Weapons To ISIS Terrorists
#4 The Immigration Crisis
#5 The VA Scandal
#6 The SEC
#7 The Environmental Protection Agency
#8 NASA
#9 The Federal Reserve
#10 Ebola
This is the one area where the incompetence of the federal government could be the most dangerous. Originally we were told by the CDC that Ebola could only be spread by “direct contact” with the bodily fluids of someone else. But now we have learned that the government believes that Ebola is “aerostable“, and we have also learned that researchers have discovered that Ebola can remain on surfaces for up to 50 days. If Ebola does start spreading widely in this country, giving people bad information could accelerate the spread of the disease.
And Barack Obama continues to refuse to ban all non-essential air travel between the United States and the nations in West Africa where Ebola is raging out of control.
As far as Obama is concerned, incompetence is the best case scenario. There is absolutely no excuse for not protecting the American people from what could become the greatest health crisis that any of us have ever seen. If a major Ebola pandemic does erupt in this country, the blood of countless numbers of Americans could potentially be on his hands....

Jesus Privately Briefing His Inner Circle of Disciples
Regarding The Last Days
Regarding The Last Days
“And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world? And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you. For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many. And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. All these are the beginning of sorrows. Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake. And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another. And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many. And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold. But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved. And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.” ~ Matthew 24:3-14
