Well for heavens sake don’t go out and get a bunch of neighbors and people you know to have meetings to find someone to run against the person in office in your local area...and for heavens sake don’t spread the word of what your trying to do, it might cause work and sweat and a lot of talking and printing flyers and handing them out to people or placing them on the front doors...we wouldn’t want to over tax you...

It’s still ObamaCare until it completely collapses...then when we get our ‘Health Care for America’ going, then if it fails, we own it...

ObamaCare is raising it’s premiums again this year...unless the Congress steps in...

I still stand by my prediction the Demcrats will retake control of the Senate and have a 50-50 shot at the House.

Trump's base will stay home in 2018 if this continues. They wont come and vote if their only choices are obstructionists.

Trump might have somewhat to say about that. As the article notes, the Republicans have to defend only 8 seats, the Democrats 23 (plus 2 indies including Bernie Sanders). Democrats have to defend more seats in states Trump won than Republicans have to defend all together. “Reversion to the Mean” would imply an 8-seat Republican pickup.

In that context, just maintaining their 48-vote minority would be a significant victory for the Democrats. For the Republicans to lose a net of 3 seats would be a truly epic fail.

In PA - NO to Jake Corman! He’s been Senate Majority Leader in PA for quite some time. and has only accomplished RINO change! Under hi, we got Statewide Building Codes which brings permitting and zoning - all that Agenda21 trash! I bet he’d get on McCain’s team...

I thought you guys would choose Barletta...

When I was working on the Santorum campaign, he was really good, is he still? I have been away from PA for 4 years now, don’t keep up with what is going on...

I remember ‘Baby Casey’ what a ‘pajama boy’ he turned out to be, rode on Daddy’s name and that’s all he did...

I hear your radio person Corbet is gone now...is that true??? He was good on local stuff, then he got nuts on all the other stuff...

“It is pure stupidity to even think about trying to remove Cruz. “

Not as far as I am concerned. He showed us all what really scummy $hit he’s capable of during the election. I wouldn’t trust him at all. Cruz will probably stay, giving Texas two POS for Senators. At least our two POS Senators here in CA are RATs so we know what to expect of them. And FWIW, I think Cornyn is worse than Cruz!

McConnell could have 100 republican senate seats and still not find 50 votes.

Well if your fantasy er prediction comes true, you can kiss anything Pres. Trump tries to do goodbye. Or kiss Pres. Trump goodbye, since the dream of dems is impeachment.

Trump doesnt need Democrats when the Republican majority is already blocking his agenda. And its not just Democrats that would like to see Trump impeached. They are all enemies of Trump.

We should fight on ground of our choosing, and not on theirs.

Oh, I have a feeling you have a lot of hate towards a lot of people. Sad way to go through life. I have known those like you...sad and, interestingly, cowardly. You can spout off with superficial posts and can spew hate and accusations, but you do absolutely nothing about it in your daily life. Just complain about stuff because you can, but are truly inconsequential in your effect. The one where after an evening spent with you, one will complain to another, “I didn’t know he would be there. I wish we would have known.”

Your Alinsky-ish pseudo-psycho babble doesn’t work on me, Obot.

It always matters how many we have. The trouble is that RINOs like Ryan and McConnell may screw the pooch and give up seats instead of gaining some.
