It is my birthday today, so I get to post the live thread. :)
Some places to watch:

No, she’s a vapid ‘artist’. She’ll try harder next time, then promise to leave the country if things don’t go her way.
currently up by 300...
it’s going to a recount from the looks of it.
Yep, very interesting. All those cough “moderate” democrats who campaigned against voting with Pelosi have nowhere to hide if they hope to pass a damn thing.
Also, not too many better get in ethical trouble or have to retire or get ill. A special election could flipnthe House.
*** “How many billions did the Dems just spend to put Pelosi in charge of the House? The woman thinks Bush is President” ***
You put it that way and it sounds like she is less dangerous than Ryan
The problem is that the GOP pushed him in place too quickly. If he was a rep for a while he would have probably won.
Calm down and take your pills. Reagan had a bigger Dem majority to deal with and accomplished plenty.
It’s not my fault cowardly nevertrumpers and “moderates” decided to cry and go home and not run. Boo Hoo, they can’t be committee chairman anymore. Boo Hoo, no more PAC money.
Even with a few of your gay buddy RINO’s staying in, they’ll bail in a second to vote with the Libs.
And you have the audacity to preach to me? They were neve on board to begin with. They would have jumped ship as soon as they read a fake poll.
Shove it a-hole.
People are tired of the media after this grueling midterm election cycle. Fox is crazy if they think we’ll be turning them on. I need a nice long break from talking heads. Buh bye Fox News.
We lost only 2? Normally you lose something like 25 seats! I count it as a big win, if it holds.
The House has nothing to do with the Supreme Court.

why would dems vote to restrict tech monopolies when they benefit from it.
**Unfortunately, Stabenow defeats James in Michigan.**
DJT should find a place in his admin immediately and groom him for another race. John Jones is a great prospect for the future.
I miss the days when we had southern democrats who could be relied upon to vote with the republicans on important issues.
That could be a good lever for Trump to pull on that whole lot--the veteran/former LEO-types, especially with defense and immigration.
I predict James is not done running for office in MI. Next time he will have much better name recognition.
Oh for FFS
Historically, the Dems should’ve crushed the House by at least 30 if not more and taken the Senate outright.
As it was the blue wave turned into a blue shart. If the Dems take the house, not known yet, it won’t be by much. They lost ground in the Senate. This was a golden opportunity for the Ds and the result, while somewhat favorable to them, is a disaster by normal historical trends.
Now, that doesn’t mean it’s a win. These types of midterms are almost always losses for the sitting president’s party.
But good Lord. The republic is dead? Over an election where we mitigated losses to well under historical norms? Are you serious? I simply cannot ABIDE the handwringing that comes out of this place sometimes. Grow a pair for God’s sakes.
What a bunch of Nancys.
Some of us used to get so FLAMED for criticizing GWB for his open-borders stance (among others)! Seems those voices, thankfully, are mostly gone now.
too many Rats ran unopposed. not sure who was in charge of identifying candidates but they failed miserably.
Mueller doesn’t have squat.
