US November elections: Republicans are measuring drapes rather than connecting with the people

As the time before Election Day ticks down, U.S. House Majority Whip Jim Clyburn is increasingly a lone wolf.
The Columbia Democrat's stubborn prediction that his party will maintain control of the U.S. House of Representatives contradicts projections by most respected political analysts, all of whom say Republicans will regain the majority they lost four years ago with 219 to 228 of the chamber's 435 seats.

Clyburn, though, backed away from his Sept. 30 prediction that Democrats will lose only 21 seats in the Nov. 2 elections, emerging with a reduced 234-201 majority.
