My guess is we pick up 1-3 Senate seats and maybe keep the House. I’m concerned that omnibus bill passage may keep republicans home.
1-3 ain’t enough. 10-12 doable? Just don’t put the cart b4 the horse or count your chickens b4 they hatch. Keep in mind how we tend to snap defeat from the jaws of victory. Akin and the loss in Indiana 6 years ago. We’re that stupid let me remind you.
There is going to be another Crimenibus before the election.
The bill was needed for our military
“I’m concerned that omnibus bill passage may keep republicans home.”
Everything is politics is an arbitration. Nobody gets all of what they want. The only thing a voter can decide is the most general direction they want the government to go, Left, or Right. Not all “Right” candidates are as ideologically pure as most would like. And, in truth, they can’t be and live in the vile scratch-my-back-I-scratch-yours swamp that is DC. We can only vote, lobby and hope that if the “right” wins most of the time that culture will generally trend in a direction we approve of. (Approving Trump’s judges for example. They will be on the bench long after Trump is gone and we have to reign in another Obama or Hillary.)
One thing is certain, staying home is as good as a vote for the Left.
There’s another vote in September. Trump said he wouldn’t sign another CR. Trump is good about doing what he says he’ll do. That will be what brings out the vote or keeps it at home.
I predict Pubs pickup 6-8 senate seats and break about even in the house.
