There is a Red Wave building.
DO you have a source you can share on the bold?
And no dem can win in Alabama. I’m cautiously optimistic that we’ll hold the Senate, hopefully the House as well, but dems are motivated this year, and we cannot be complacent. People expecting huge gains for our side eill likely be disappointed, IMO.
I like it.
Eleven seats? Coach is nuts.
Screw the polls.... GO EFFING VOTE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Just remember, polls are now used to influence voter behavior, not to accurately sense voter sentiment.
It would be nice if the Democrats lost HUUUGE in the fall.
Someone could make a YouTube montage of the faces of the talking heads that night and two years previous, the moment that the smiles fade and shock sets in.
I wonder if SNL will be as comically inspired?

Democrats about to lose Party status ? LOL
Let me tell YOU, Buster - I work for the FIB and the Democrats are going to sweep the Senate in 2018!

By election night 2016 anyone who was honest knew there was only one “swing” state that was remotely in play, and that was FL, and the odds it would go Clinton were under 50%.
All of the other “swing” states as well as A few in the upper midwest had every indication they would be solidly Trump.
The media kept regurgitating the lie Hillary was going to win in a landslide, in hopes they could create reality.
But EVERY real indicator had Trump winning every swing state, solidly.
Only FL was honestly “in play” election night, and even the indicators there were Hillary would likely lose it.
Josh Hawley was tarred with a connection to our former governor by the media.
He needs to get busy and CAMPAIGN !
It's summer and no one is paying attention.
After Labor Day, I'm sure Hawley will come out blazing with ads that will appeal to Missouri voters; McCaskill is against tax cuts, for open borders, and we'll see how she votes on Kavanaugh. THere is a lot of ammo to use against the Democrats this year, and they are holding fire until Labor Day.
I'm sure the candidates in the other states are doing the same. I can't think of another mid-term election where the GOP had the issues on their side more than this since 1994.
11?! Nah. 5 maybe.
We have only just started to see the oversight committees exposing the government corruption under the Dems administration and the conspiracy to take Trump out( the redacted IG report was just the first and only on how the government handled the Clinton email fiasco). It will continue to build through the election cycle. Add to that Trump’s very loud truthful big mouth and Twitter feed, not to mention all the rallies he will do with shock and awe comments...... It is going to get ugly for any dem by election time.
However, it will have no impact on Heitkamps's loss.
Sorry to say but Jackass Joe Donnelly will probably be re-elected in a close vote.
The Indiana Republicans shoot themselves in the foot every six years with nut ball candidates - think Richard Mourdock. Mike Braun will screw this up before November.
Where Missouri is concerned, the Primary is August 7. Also, the vote on making Missouri a Right to Work State. If it fails, then we may lose to Mother McCaskill again come November. Republicans need to wake up and get off their collective asses! Democrats feed off union workers like flies on honey. We have a chance to stop this activity in Missouri. VOTE YES on PROP A on August 7!
12 seats would be huge, enough for a filibuster-proof majority, and almost enough to override vetos even (probably better that the RINOs in the Senate don’t have that though). I’d like to believe it could happen, but I think swing that big in the Senate is too much to hope for.
People say they monkey around.
