Good question!! Why does anyone listen to Juan Williams? I don't..... but then I have sworn off TV punditry entirely.

Still a ton of votes in MT but I can’t imagine we’ll win that one.

So we’re looking at max 55 (if we hold NV, AZ, and nothing fishy happens in FL) which is 1 less than I had hoped for. Not great considering all the rat targets and our pollyanna hopes but would be friggin fantastic considering the brutal House result. 55 is our modern high, haven’t had more since we had 58 of 96 in 1929-30.

Nothing in NV yet.

Rats have 2020 targets. We need to get someone running against Doug Jones NOW!!!!!

Yes, Ginsburg looks like the mother of Psycho (the movie). And another left leaning justice is thinking retirement. If Trump wins in 2020, we get 2 or 3 conservative leaning justices. That effect will last 30 years, lot longer than Trump presidency.

Oh, I agree 100%.

The left controls the media. How do you propose that these hacks be exposed?

Most of the open seats and retirements were held by RINOs.

It’s been a house cleaning of moderate Republicans.

Trump was smart and correct to concentrate on the Senate. The Dems had more seats up and he attacked and won. I figured +5 and it’s looking close. I hope MI goes GOP.

Still not all in so I’m not projecting the projections on the House but as it looks, the Dems might only have a majority of less than 10-15 seats.

With 56-57 GOP Senators and shaky control of the House by Dems, they’ll be backed into a corner. Nothing they pass will go through or be signed. I can even see some defecting to our side going on 2020.

They will pull out the massive spending bills and accuse Trump of “not caring for the fill-in-the-blank” group to see if he’ll cave. He won’t.

Boy, I see two years of idiots on TV yammering about crap.

Shakes head...so much like Sarah and the leftist women condoning the attacks on her, and her family... when will folks wake up to the truth, that it doesn’t really matter what gender, or race you are to the left. It is all about advancing their agenda, and their agenda is taking away every one of our freedoms.

Lord, please guide and strengthen us.

Dem ‘leadership’ already having a party, in DC, on Fox.

meh who cares. they still have no power w/o a senate and white house.

We have a larger more conservative senate which is very important for the future of the courts.

The house flips back and forth depending on who is in the white house.

What source are you looking at. Faux has King down though he’s gaining.

It’s only 10:35 (central)? Lord, I thought it was like 2:30.

I wonder if now she’s lost her leverage, if Murkowski will turn Rat.

This needs to be addressed.

We weren’t getting the wall with the GOP house either.
Nothing is easy. Trump is doing damn well given the electorate
