- "The Tea Party movement, the latest manifestation of a deeprooted tendency in the US, is now set to dominate coverage of the run-up to the 2 November Mid-Term elections."
- "But we doubt that its recent successes in the Republican primaries will have any significant impact on the outcome of the Mid-Terms where the economy will remain pivotal."
- "Overall, it remains our view that the Republicans are likely to secure a majority in the House of Representatives but will struggle to do likewise in the Senate."
- "Irrespective, we anticipate gridlock in Congress through to 2012, even though a Republican majority in one or both houses would be an incentive to reach compromises with the Democrats."
- "Most importantly to sentiment in the short to medium term, we look for agreement to be reached on extending all the Bush tax cuts for 12 months once the Mid-Terms are out of the way."
- "Beyond that, we expect little agreement on fiscal policy other than, possibly, more help at the margins for business."
- "We also expect bipartisan agreement on keeping the pressure on the Administration to take more punitive action against China’s alleged “currency manipulation”."
- "We do not expect possible Republican efforts to repeal healthcare reform to be successful."
- "Legislation to limit carbon emissions now looks unlikely; so the Administration may resort to regulatory measures."
- "Sarah Palin, the Tea Party’s de facto leader, appears to be positioning herself to run in the 2012 Republican presidential primaries. We do not dismiss her chances."
