Why all the doom and gloom about the house? It hasn’t been lost as of this time. From what I can tell (votes counted) it is still a toss up as to whether the Dems take the house or not.

Either way (win/lose the house) it won’t be by a large margin. And we are picking up seats in the Senate. The only question now is how many seats will we pickup.

Nelson is gone. Both FL Senate seats now owned by the GOP.

. We took our lumps with the House but we held the Senate and the OH and FL statehouses.

GA looks to hold, too.

My guns are smiling.

No, there will be a run-off unless the top candidate gets 50%+1.

Mississippi requires an absolute majority.

Clown, did you see the gains in the Senate? The Senate is now Collins, MooKowski and Romney proof. Flake is gone. The GOP can ram through as many federal judges as we want.

No more Kavanaugh Circus when RBG kicks the bucket.

>>All in all, a good night.
**************************
The best President in US history, and we lost the House.

Not a good night AT ALL.

Hello Speaker Pelosi, Finance Maxine Waters, and oh yes, let’s not forget Adam Schiff. What’s he in charge of? Judiciary? OMG. Not a good night AT ALL.


The behavior of the House Republicans is as inexplicable as it is bizzare.

After having voted overwhelmingly to repeal Obama Care several times when Obama was President and campaigning in 2016 promising to repeal ObamaCare and winning on that promise, they intentionally gave the middle finger to the American public and did everything they could to protect ObamaCare

It's hard to figure out what happened. It really seems like Republicans and Paul Ryan were actively trying to alienate Republican voters and lose the House.

This is the year they wanted to lose and they may well have.

Women do not like losing their right to abortion. But why anyone needs abortion when there are 100 ways to not get pregnant, if you do not wish to keep the baby.

If KS voters are stupid, Illinois voters have negative IQs.

Illinois GOP is a joke. Regardless, the state is controlled by Chicago where there are way too many that want their "free stuff".

Amazing that the GOP has no clue how to explain to voters that Socialism does not work.

Amazing how Fox is carrying the water for the Dims.

They’ve gone all in, for the left. No doubting it, now.

Every time they bring up the senate win, Chris Wallace looks like he’s chewing on a giant turd.

Stupid Juan Williams is making FNC impossible to watch tonight.

Doesn't he usually. I find him very close to insufferable & terminally ignorant.

What a crock. We lost because the Rinos would not embrace any of the reasons Trump was elected. Why vote for a Dem light when you can vote for the real thing.

2018 was the last election where the socialist wave could be stopped. We have officially lost the Republic.

I see it differently. I think they are walking into a trap, and we are going to see a real "Red Wave" in 2020.

We had to get rid of some GOP deadwood first. 2020 starts tomorrow!

The guy who ran for Pres with the sweater vest just said something bright on cnn: that the President has been fighting the last two years anyway! He’s been fighting the MEDIA! it’s more traditional for a Prez to fight the House.
