The senate is not at risk, Republicans will almost certainly gain several senate seats...

However, if their plan in the fall messaging wise, is the same messaging they used in PA-18 special election they will easily lose the house.

I have never seen such complete incompetence in all my life as I saw out of the entire GOP ecosphere for PA-18.

You know what, I say, “Go Ahead, Make My Day”, if they want to try to Impeach Trump.

It will blow up big-time if they try, and they know it. But it gets the base excited.

The fourth issue feeding the chance of Democrat pickups is that the GOP has so badly damaged their credibility as a political party that even many voters in their own base will stay home.

There is that too.

Our problem is that so many have a permanent longing for “the democracy.” They believe the rhetoric about “the democracy” for the “common man.”

It’s not incompetence...GOP leadership wants Trump to fail.

On Judges alone the value of GOP control of Cogress has been proven beyond worth.

If you back Trump, you work your ass off to hold Congress. Without Congress Trump will be impeached. The Democrats are no long sane. They are a party of foaming at the mouth lunatics. Do not buy the same lies people did in 2006.

In 2006 Democrats tried the same thing. The ran as if they were GOPer and then went to DC and did just want the DNC told them to do.

The risks to the Republic from the Dems right now are far too high for another temper tantrum at the ballot box in 2018

No it will not. Counting on “Impeaching Trump” back firing when they control the mass media and the messaging is a risk you cannot take.

No surprise our resident Democrat pretending to be a Conservative is here.

Don’t you ever get tired of being a PR bot for the Democrat Party?

Actually almost all Democrat seats are at risk since they will be running on a promise to raise taxes impeach Trump grant amesty to anyone, mocking White Christians and explaining away multiple indictments.

So you are for repeating the 2006 midterm election. Do you realize that if we lose the House the rats will impeach President Trump, and if we lose the Senate, they will remove him from Office

That would fit the plan of the Uniparty perfectly. Then the so-called "Republicans" of the Uniparty could tut-tut that it is all so unfortunate that Trump was so very divisive. They would have liked to help, but their hands are tied. And then the same rat-f*ck Republicans would promise, promise, promise to fix everything if you'd only send them some campaign money and vote them in.

The same BS goes on with the Dem side. The only point being to maintain the status quo.

You’re the one promoting Democrats with R’s by their name.

I’m not interested in supporting your liberal party, sorry.

I wouldn't count on a 2/3 Dem vote in the senate. However, if Dems took the House and voted for impeachment it would slow DJT down.

Under no circumstances can we allow the dems to take Congress back

Screw that. I'm done getting screwed by the GOP. It's time to hand it all over to the left, let it crash and go to work. I'm done getting the shaft.

Well buckle up, baby, it's gonna be a helluva ride, thanks to folks like me that are done getting screwed by the GOP. Piss on 'em. And as far as Trump being impeached, well, chances are he's out in 2020 anyhow, especially with the omnibus bill they are working on now.

The House just passed the spending bill, otherwise known as plan to give House back to Democrats without really trying.

"The fear of this must be instilled in the libs."

Which is why the "true believer" libs want desperately to disarm us. The rest are just lemmings.
