At an annual gathering of Republican bigwigs in Florida a year ago, a top GOP strategist was chided after he gave a presentation about how his party would win the Senate in 2014, including a handout that blared MAJORITY in red.
Stop saying majority, donors, consultants and even some senators told National Republican Senatorial Committee Executive Director Rob Collins, he recalled in an interview. Just say youre going to be able to pick up a few seats.
Fast forward to early this month, when the annual event took place again at the same posh Palm Beach resort. Far from preaching caution, many of the 400 donors in attendance openly mused about what a Republican Senate would bring, and Collins was the one trying to keep expectations in check.
After 15 months in the doldrums, Republicans feel like theyre finally getting their mojo back.

Right----the egotistical jerk can't stand crowds---might hear a discouraging word.
As sickoflibs posted----he seems to be running out of ideas. Signing a stupid $10.00 minimum wage bill. Going to "drought-ridden" Calif farmland to tout "climate change" where the reality is liberals shut the water off to farms to save the smelt.
Thank you. Yes, let’s get this ball rolling. I’d like to hear from the naysayers especially.
This might be it, FRiends. If we can’t get the Senate in Nov, I don’t see any way we’ll ever be able to regroup. And the socialist thugs running DC will be running this country into the ground for a lot longer than the foreseeable future. I have a baby daughter now and I want her to grow up in a real America, not some depressing, leftist version of it.
We need to also assume the Presidency is lost until at least 2024. I pray this will not be the case, but I’m not hopeful about it at all.
There must be a state by state list of the specific battles we need to focus on... If anyone has that info, please post -— not an order, merely a polite request!
We have an “important battle” here in my state.... Georgia.
Our two Senators are Saxby Chambliss and Johnny Isakson, both Republican, bet, Alas, both RHINOs.
We have to replace Isakson with a good conservative which will be a big challenge for sure!. The good news is that Chambliss will not be running again, so we have a real chance of replacing him with a conservative senator.
Support Matt Bevin to oust Mitch McConnell in KY
Support Dwayne Stovall to oust John Cornyn in TX
Support Joe Carr to oust Lamar!
Support Lee Bright to oust Lindsey Graham in SC
Support Dr. Milton Wolf to oust Pat Roberts in KS
Support Chris McDaniel to oust Thad Cochran in MS
Also, support Ben Sasse for the open Senate seat in NE
Shamnesty trumps all.
Which won’t do us much good since the Senate will still be “GOPE.”
