Supervising the vote count will be key.

or standing still until they are tackled and then they fumble the ball and it is recovered by the other team who run it for a goal while they are dusting the dirt of their uniform and complaining about the profanity used when they were tackled.

....this from another web site....yes, supervising the vote count is very important, but yet again, the fix is already in....no one believes the democrats will play fair...

“U.S. Postal Service creates new dedicated division to handle election mail. The Election and Government Mail Services is part of an effort to effectively deliver mail-in ballots to voters and elections offices in advance of the 2022 midterm elections.....”

Latinos are surging to the right in Texas, and I'm proud to have started that wave.

I married into a large Hispanic family nearly 40 years ago. Virtually all were Democrats, but they had never heard a conservative speak his mind in their midst.

There's still a few libs, but it's about 2 to 1 conservative Republican, and pro-life, of course.

Not as long as the Congress is letting Jo Jo the Pedophile Clown pay for free diplomas for the worthless Snowflake generation.

I’ll probably be eating crow but as of right now absolutely not. They had it in the bag all they needed to do was nail the bastard rats to the ground instead they ran hiding under the desk hoping that the media would go easy on them or that the American people would just automatically do it and vote for them without them fighting. They slit their own throat so to me there is no wave certainly not a red wave. But I’ll be glad to eat crow at the end. They have demonstrated they have no fighting in them they have no fire in their belly and the only ones that are fighting like crazy cats are the very few MAGA representatives in Congress. Other than that no fire whatsoever. Our Congress and Senate leaders and representatives are dead in the water!

The Raid on Trumps home accomplished what it was supposed to.
It turned the conversation from the senile fool of a President’s disastrous policies back to Trump. Trump for good or for bad is a polarizing figure. How ever many votes Biden actually received very few of those were for him. They were against Trump. Now instead of talking about Afghanistan, blowing up a carload of children, record inflation, a recession, sky high gas prices, and everything else the democrats have screwed up, we are all talking about Trump again. This can only help the democrats like it did in the Georgia senate race tow years ago. Republicans took the bait.

The Amerikan elections have become nothing more than the best of the worst candidates for the most part, and most voters are having trouble deciding which is better. When they can’t figure it out, they let the MSM pick the candidates for them.

I’ve never understood the Hispanic voting blocks traditional Democrat voting.... General Values of that group are far more conservative and family oriented than what the Democrats have been selling for a long long time.

I remain doubtful.

The Dems outright STOLE the Presidential election. I have not seen nearly enough evidence to be able to safely assume they won’t just keep doing it.

Especially after the results of that “special” election in NY.

The GOP still has a somewhat even chance to win the House. There aren’t enough strong candidates to take back the Senate this time around, so resources and efforts should be directed toward the House races.

....I am not optimistic about this fall’s midterms.... remember - the democrat party has been known for generations as the evil party, and the republican party as the stupid party....the GOP may take back the House, but the Senate is another matter...may even lose seats....

The Republicans take the House by a lot

You are correct, The Republicans will not take the Senate because there are too many Rinos in the Senate.

Senator Mitch is too much of a Rino and Mitch "The Witch" is the leader in the Senate!!!

Ping! Out to the Victor Davis Hanson list

Polls are all over the place. Now they show generic Republican leads, now Democratic.

The general experience in polling is that they are more often conducted by left-leaning institutions and massaged to show Democratic “momentum.”

Since the polling meltdown of 2016—when most polls showed a Hillary Clinton Electoral College landslide—they have regained little credibility.

Current progressive heartthrob and spoiler Representative Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) was polled at only 20 percent behind in her recent primary—only to be crushed in the end, losing by over 37 percent.

The corporate leftist media does its part by glorifying a now dynamic “Aviator Joe.”

Biden in cool sunglasses is now constructed into a swaggering “Top Gun” Tom Cruise-like figure, rather than a cognitively challenged 79-year-old.

Biden as "Aviator Joe". Someone is Central Casting sure messed this one up.
