I’m a conservative suburban mom and these women are my neighbors. They are bleeding hearts on the social issues, and don’t really think that taxes come out of their paychecks.

I remember when the suburbs were Republican strongholds, now even the county races are going dem

Illinois Republicans are dying off. The younger generations have been brainwashed by the public school system and the majority of them are socialists. Few pastors will stand up publicly on is social issues of our day. Figure in the illegals from being a sanctuary state and there you have it.

Republicans could not hold seats and even more surprising in this Trump era, We didn't really GAIN any seats.

Trump is 100% right, the media is now the enemy of the people.
Between now and 2020 as many partisan hacks needs exposed as possible.

“So glad Gillum the faux Obama didn’t get to redetrict fla. now if the corpse Nelson goes down we will have had a good night.”

Yes... and DeSantis gets to appoint 3 justices to the Florida Supreme Court.

And I think many of those 45? Republicans who retired did so to throw it to the Dems, Paul Ryan included. We would have been good if they’d run again and held their seats.

GREAT point a ton of R retirements jsut to throw it..and it worked..for now.

Anyway I’m happy about FLA and TX and GA. However OH? Jeesh that’s disturbing, but everything is always local in these races except for when the media makes it not so...ie FLORIDA and TEXAS this year. Glad their new “stars” lost.

I expect the dems to pull out all the stops now and try and remove Trump from office.

Without the Senate? How? Would be a most foolish waste of House majority control, and a boon to PDJT.

>>>The youth are lost, and that concerns me as I will likely be living under socialism someday.

This is truth. We are holding on by a thread. We may make 2020 and possibly 2024. After that? I don't give us much hope. Demographics and stupid GOPe policies of failure to build the wall...and STOP things 20 years ago when we could have will catch up to us. Texas will be gone in the next 20 years. So will Florida. The California plague will spread.

“It’s just getting deferred until after 2020.

The Pubbies are still in much better shape than the Rats right now.”

I don’t think we should underestimate the desire for revenge the democrats in the House will have. You think the Kavanaugh hearing was bad?? Just wait for the impeachment hearings. They will tear the country apart...permanently. And the kicker is, they don’t care, because they don’t like the USA that was handed down to us by our forefathers; they hate it, they hate how it was formed, who formed it, and what it has stood for.

We partly managed to defy the historical norm.

Democrats will overreach with impeachment and their hatred of Trump.

Next two years will be fun.

If the Dems hold control in Congress, though, Marxine will start the impeachment drumbeat. She won’t win it but it will make a lot of noise with the MSM carrying her water. And it will distract our wonderful President from doing his best for the American people.

Still praying that somehow California of all places might bring us some R victories for Congress....but I guess that’s not going to happen.

At leat there is good news in GA. The GA State races from Gov on down are all about 55-45 to the GOPs. The Gov race was suppose to be “toss up” according to the polling.

And GA 6, which was suppose to be a D pick up is trending as a GOP hold.

The Senate being elected tonight will be a different Senate.

Looks like Scott Perry will win the 10th district in PA! I’ve always liked this guy, and he had a tough battle against one of those ex-military guys. Saw lots of yard signs for that George Scott character, too.

No, they’re probably looking for votes in someone’s trunk.
