Let’s face reality.

Does what happened in PA-18 constitute a local result or is it a portent of a national trend.

The old saw is all elections are local. Until they aren’t.

We have until November to find out which is the case.

It is very much a local result. There was a frickin sex scandal that led to the mid term. and a dud candidate who could not raise money. And if the dem wins, which no one will not until tomorrow and after a likely recount, it still does not help them because the gop candidate made up all that space in about a week.

The tax cuts are offering huge results for the gop. And the gop will talk about it now on the way to the second half of summer. There are actually republicans who have people thanking them for the vote when they see them in public.

They will very likely tout that in the campaign. It scares the dems big time. They tried every thing they could to stop that bill for a reason.

The Democrats want to run less traditional D candidates, and they want to make the GOP spend money. They accomplished both of those things today. That is going to be a national trend, particularly into 2020.
