Full title : Mary Matalin to Newsmax TV: GOP Will Hold House, Add Senate Seats

Republican political consultant Mary Matalin told Newsmax TV on Thursday that she believes the GOP will not only win seats in the Senate, but also hold on to the House majority.

In remarks on “Newsmax Now,” Matalin — who’s served under President Ronald Reagan, was campaign director for George H. W. Bush, and was an assistant to President George W. Bush — said Democrats “forget even recent history” We’re going to win in all the same places” Republicans were victorious in 2016, she asserted.

“I've been looking at my notes from last spring when the wave was starting to be the narrative,” she added. “We're never going to lose the House. And I'm looking to pick up five to seven Senate seats.”

Not sure what her track record is on predictions, but 5 to 7 US Senate seats are possible if everything goes our way. Same with holding The House.

From her lips to God's ears! If we hold the House we get a whole new set of videos showing the Libs losing their minds 😁

She is pretty smart with these things. She predicted Trump would win as well.

She did? Cool.
Well she was George H W Bush’s campaign manager. That must count for something. And yes, she is a very smart cookie.

Really? I didn't know she predicted Trump would win. I hadn't seen nor heard from Mary Matalin in many, many years until she recently appeared on Laura Ingraham's FNC show a couple of weeks ago. I admit I had forgotten all about her. I assumed she and CarVILE had quit politics.

With those 3 added we could be looking at a super majority Senate.

Adding at least a few seats in the Senate? Almost certainly. Holding the House? Maybe…

No, she was on one of the networks on election night being interviewed before the results of the election came in.

No maybe about it, no way the Democrats pick up 23 House seats while we are picking up Senate seats.

I hope she’s right. I’m so afraid we’ll lose the House. Hope to Almighty God I’m wrong. I’ll be the happiest guy on Earth if I am.

It will be up to God, our election in 2016 was a divine intervention there is NO DOUBT in my mind, Trump supporters are the most loyal I have EVER seen for a POTUS!!! God has put a mind set into his supporters that WILL NOT be moved under any circumstances!!! I have NEVER felt this way about any POTUS and I truly loved Reagan HOWEVER there is something about Trump I just adore!!!! He is a VERY RICH simple man and speaks to us in simple language!!!

Boy, do I ever hope she’s right! But you’re right; her track record is what we should be looking at.
