Fri, 20 Oct 2006 12:00:00 EST A GOP Surprise Courtesy of Investors?

If you go by the political betting markets—not to mention those devastating polls—the GOP has about the same chance (30 percent or so) of keeping House of Representatives under Republican control as the United States does of catching Osama bin Laden or of bombing Iran by the end of next year. (But it has twice as good a chance as Joey Lawrence does of winning Dancing With the Stars, natch!) Yet there goes White House political adviser Karl Rove this week predicting the GOP will hold both the House and the Senate. (A veteran Washington watcher and money guy snarked to me, "I wonder if this is the same version of Rove that predicted an easy victory for Bush in 2000 and had him taking a victory lap in California.")
