Be careful what you wish for, MSM . . .
Joe Scarborough has predicted that Nancy Pelosi is “most likely going to be the next Speaker of the House.” Speaking on today’s Morning Joe, Scarborough’s theory was that the Republican leadership will try to push through a tax reform bill without letting rank-and-file House members participate in the process, and that as a result it will fail, as did the effort to repeal and replace Obamacare.
Could Joe’s prediction come true? Sure. It would require House Dems in the 2018 mid-term elections to increase their numbers by about 24 seats. According to Politifact, “in midterms since 1862, the president’s party has averaged losses of about 32 seats in the House.”
So feasible? Yes. But ironically, the best thing the Republicans will have going for them in stopping Nancy Pelosi from becoming Speaker . . . is Nancy Pelosi herself.

Aug. 15, 2016: “That’s a guy who knows he is going to lose. That’s a guy who knows he is going to lose. You start talking that way and, again, I don’t know that he’s ever wanted to win. It’s sad. It’s sad and pathetic what’s going on out there.” (Joe Scarborough, MSNBC)
Joe Scarborough 1916, “Donald Trump has no chance of becoming president” & “Hillary will be the next president, guaranteed”.

hey, joe, lets walk down the streets of Milton,fl one day and see what your old friends have to say.
Joe shor ez P-whipped.
My goodness what a LOSER!!! Leaving his wife for the kmart version of Julie Andrews? YIKES.
I wonder if Joe would be willing to wager on this ?
Speaker, yes....of the crazy house.
The Left call President Trump insane while Nancy Pelosi is staring them in the face? Too much!
Unfortunately Scarborough might be correct. If the Rs can’t give us tax relief, why vote for them?
The GOP is going to have to fight real hard to get votes when they’ve disillusioned so many people on the right. I can see a lot of people just staying home with no reason to vote for the party of Mitch McConnell, Paul Ryan, John McCain, etc., etc.
If conservatives stay home because of these RINOs, expect the democrats to win more than 24 seats.
Elections are ALL about getting your voters to the polls.
And, NEVER underestimate the stupidity off the “moderate” voter.
I’m worried, but willing to do what it takes. What can we do? Volunteer to man phones, go door-to-door, and work to just get conservatives to vote. That’s it. No one stays home.
Joe’s a phony. Maybe that’s his job on MSNBC, but he’s an obvious fake.
Ah yes, once again we hear from the uxorious half of the “Morning Joe” show.
Isn’t she about 80 years old already?!?!?!
Sphincter of the Horse
She will be 78 at the time of the 2018 elections.
His paycheck depends on it.
