In politics, only the short term matters.

hat do you think these poll numbers will be once the progressive Marxist retards begin in earnest to follow Mad Maxine’s insane orders to her “shock troops?”

And more pointedly, after the predictable outcome of some member of the Trump Administration, a Trump-supporter, or some other Republican getting seriously injured or killed, then where do these numbers go?

And lastly, on the better than fair chance that these idiots, in some bizarre twist of a “protest,” actually torch their cities - where the result is that hundreds or even 1000s of Americans perish - then what shall be November’s outcome?

Hey Mutt - I love your passion....but 65 seats will not happen. If you look at each state and see which seats are competitive and which seats have good candidates, it just won't happen. The pubs picked up 63 seats in 2010 - a record and it was a perfect storm.

Large pick ups happen only when the other party is in the White House and Trump is listed as "R".

There aren't that many districts available held by democrats that a republican can win. The republicans aren't going to win these urban districts that everyone reflexively votes democrat.

In Virginia, Comstock who is the repub rep for the 10th district is a sure loss on the repub side for a number of reasons. Her seat is guaranteed lost and the dems may pick up one or two more in this state. The republican party is a disaster in this state and it's getting worse.

Even a fairly popular president loses seats in the midterms. There have been only two instances in which the party in the White House picked up seats in the midterms and the last one was in 2002 under W and it makes sense, since that was right after 9/11.

The republicans will lose seats in November, but it is hard to guess now, since there are still many primary contests on the calendar.

The Senate - I wish you were right on that one, too, but the pubs have already thrown in the towel on Wisc, Minn and one other state I can't remember at the moment. The senate committee has already decided not to contest those seats, so there you go.

I had read of this yrs ago. Generic polls generally overstate Dem support by an average of 4 or 5%.

Big mistake to try and use past midterms to predict this upcoming one.

Just as the 2016 election was like none other this midterm is as well.

You took your best shot. Now you’ll feel how it’s done.
