Yup.

No way the GOP could win 85% of the open seats. A statistical impossibility.

You can the House loss at Ryan’s feet.

Establishment republicans just are not serious about governance. They historically have been comfortable in the minority, actually, and tend to resent having to take responsibility when they are in control. All those incumbents retiring made a strong statement about their commitment to the Nation as opposed to their own egos and burgeoning portfolios.

Women are attracted to men who are confident, passionate, and have a since of purpose. That’s why bad boys do so well with the woman in HS and College......because hey have all three of those traits. Trump is a bad boy. He’ll do fine next election with the women.

My wife admits she was attracted because she thought I was a “bad boy”. I fooled her. In 46 years the only time I physically harmed her was “Wanna see a match burn twice?” On our first date. She is still mad at me for that one.

No need to worry, they will never smarten up, their DemocRATS.

The answer is: Never

I saw that opera many, many years ago when I was a teenager. My aunt took me to watch it.

Wasn’t Nancy Stretch Pelosi moaning and crying about how the republicans have too much power and her state of California has a democratic super majority. Taxes can be raised at the swipe of a hand. Such crying hypocrites.

Here in SW Pennsylvania, we got to see a lot of the flip districts up close and personal. In many cases, they even ran to the right of the GOP, particularly the GOPe.

Fortunately, we got put into even a more GOP leaning district, but the young veteran beat the frumpy old guy (also a veteran) who lost to Conor Lamb in the primary. Lamb moved to a neighboring district to challenge another frumpy old guy Keith Rothfus who beat him soundly based on a couple of pro Trump administration votes which proclaimed "See! I can work across the aisle and I won't vote for Nancy Pelosi as speaker."

This area is full of old line Democrats who are Catholic, pro-life and think our village idiot U.S. Senator Bobbie Jr. is just like his pro-life Daddy, who even though he still lost our area narrowly, it was not by enough to overcome the leftist jungle around Philadelphia.

Give the flips in Pennsylvania a full two years and they will confirm themselves to be either (a)Blue Dogs or (b)Pelosi tools. I am betting on (b) but would be pleasantly surprised with (a). Either way, they will deal with the consequences in 2020.

Women voters in particular think emotionally, which is the main reason why you have a new wave of Conor Lamb type pretty boys replacing frumpy old guys.

[Kaslin]

You meant to say they’re as in they are DemocRATS, don’t you?

Democrats have been jerks for Trumps 2 years and they still won the house

2010 is going to be a disaster

I am 82 and have health problems--probably won't have to see it

That’s a classic....usually a joke you play on your buddies......but, OK.
