Bill Kristol sounds House alarm

Rep. Steve Israel, the Democratic Congressional Campaign Chairman, believes the House is within reach. House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi says there is a “60 percent" chance” that Democrats can pick up the 25 seats they need.
But nobody actually believes that, right? Hello, Bill Kristol:
IF the polls are right, and IF nothing much changes over the remaining six weeks, the House could well be in play. Maybe things will move in a Republican direction. Or maybe Republicans will hold on in an even popular vote election with the help of incumbency advantages and post-2010 redistricting. But it's also possible that an Obama +3 victory on Election Day would drag the Democrats to an edge in the congressional vote—and control of the House. In any case, based on current polling, I don't think one can say that it's now out of the question that we could wake up on the morning of November 7 to the prospect of ... Speaker Nancy Pelosi.
If I may once again quote the prophet Aladdin: “Abu, this is no time to panic. . . . Start panicking!”
