When asked about the 29 Republican-held seats that will go up for grabs this fall

Last I checked... all 435 House seats go up for grabs this fall, and every two years. This is not doom. The Old Guard is walking out, the new guard now needs to step up. There are some good conservatives running... even in supposedly Democrat-gerrymandered districts there are people like Louis Barletta worth our support.

Regardless of how you feel about McCain (and I'd argue that with Huckaboom II underway, it may not be a foregone conclusion just yet), it's important to go out and vote in your Congressional and Senate races. The future of our country is in our hands. Do not abuse it.

Don’t you get it? This is just what the left is hoping for. Us to stay home.

“Last I checked... all 435 House seats go up for grabs this fall, and every two years”

A technicality when incumbents enjoy a 98% reelection rate. “Up for grabs” means an open seat in a swing district.
