Republicans will maintain control of the House of Representatives, NBC News now projects.

The GOP is seen taking 235 seats to the Democrats' 200, according to NBC's House Model.

Republicans were widely expected to hold the House and create a policy buffer in a possible Hillary Clinton presidency.

Some believed the Democrats could have a chance to seize control of the chamber amid the peak of Donald Trump's woes in early October, but those chances looked to vanish as the presidential race tightened.

I’m more worried about the senate. If Hillary takes over the GOP majority will be able to Bork any commie or Muslim Sharia law Judges she appoints. OTOH, Trump winning plus a Democrapic Senate could put a stop to our taking back the courts.

This is going to be a great night! I have officially turned the channel to CNN to watch them suffer. MSNBC is next. Delicious.

If Trump takes the states that are trending for him at this moment . . . he will have 264 Electoral Votes.

I’m looking forward to Hillary’s concession speech . . . shouldn’t be too much before midnight eastern.

Hillary is throwing ashtrays and lamps right now . . . how long before she divorces Bill?

oh, and then there is this from Democratic Underground

Around 4:30pm on Tuesday November 8, Democratic Underground was hacked, apparently by a supporter of Donald Trump. This person clearly knew what they were doing, and despite our best efforts we have not yet been able to resolve the issues caused by the hack.

We do not believe that any member data has been compromised. And we are confident that donor data has not been compromised because that information is handled by PayPal and never passes through to our servers. But at this time we are unable to bring our discussion forum online.

The hack was clearly aimed to cause maximum disruption on our busiest night of the year, and we deeply regret that we won’t be able to spend election night with our great community of members. We ask for your patience while we continue to work to fix this problem, and while we do not have a time frame we will do our best to get DU back online as soon as possible.

If anyone has any information about the hack, or has knowledge that might help us to fix it, please feel free to contact us: admin@democraticunderground.com

We will be posting updates on Facebook and Twitter.

We are deeply disappointed that this has happened. But we’ll be back.

Skinner, EarlG, and Elad
DU Administrators

LOL!

I’d forgotten about that!

Why did he put a garbage can on his head again?

Let’s post a pic!
