There goes the red wave. Dems may now win the House also.

Do you get off to posting doom and gloom stuff? Does it make you feel good? Do you enjoy the thought of demoralizing people? Are you trying to suppress voter turnout?

Just curious about the motives or intended contributions of the gloom and doom crowd.

Fair enough. I appreciate your question. The main reason is to prevent a hard disappointment in November that comes from increased expectations. Sort of like what happened in Nov 2008 when everyone here believed LS that McCain was going to win.

There are a lot of factors out there besides inflation. The country has changed. What worked in politics in 1994 or even 2010 will not work any more. Too many on our side are expecting a 1994-sized red wave, and it ain't going to happen. We want to simply keep the expectations realistic.

Yes, we will win the House. But beyond that, it is a lot closer than many on our side are willing to admit.
