[September 08, 2010] WASHINGTON (AP) -- House Republican Leader John Boehner (BAY'-nur) says "it's possible" his party could reclaim control of Congress in this fall's midterm elections.

But Boehner tells ABC's "Good Morning America," that winning majorities in both the House and Senate, as the GOP did in 1994, would be "a steep climb." Boehner said he believes people are very uneasy with the continuing economic slump, and that would favor Republicans, who lost ground in the two chambers in the 2008 presidential election. He acknowledged, though, that the GOP would have to "earn back our majority" at the polls in November. Copyright 2010 The Associated Press. All rights reserved.
