Republican worries of a midterm flop are growing heading into the critical post-Labor Day campaign season, with analysts who had previously predicted massive GOP gains shifting their forecasts toward Democrats.
Rick Tyler, a Republican strategist and analyst, said the environment looks “not even close” to a red wave election year. “The enthusiasm is just not there,” Tyler said. “Last time Republicans had a good year, they were six points ahead in the generic poll. Now we’re barely two points ahead. So it’s definitely not going to happen.”

Well said.
That's why Republicans traditionally improve in the polls in the fall and usually overperform in the election, especially in years favorable to Republicans.
These trigger laws were passed by Republican politicians throwing a bone to their pro-life base, passed with the understanding that they'd never go into effect because Roe v. Wade would never be overturned.
Now the Republican politicians in these states are going to have to figure out how to modify or repeal these trigger laws or lose to Democrat politicians who will, and the pro-life base isn't going to like it.
Yes, Kansas should've been an eye-opener. The country isn't ready for total bans on abortion. Limits? Absolutely, but not total bans.
And that's a truth many here don't want to hear.
Nothing is going to save the Democrats from losing the House by large margin.
More like Democrats whistle past the graveyard hoping their push polls will discourage America First voters in November. They do this knowing that if this doesn’t work, they’re in for a butt whipping of biblical proportions.
In my state of NC, since May 6, 2014 the Dems have lost 265,933 registered voters, GOP has gained 215,187 voters and the Unaffiliated have gained 853,584 registered voters.
Today, the Unaffiliated of the three (D, R, U) are the most. Not so in 2014: the Dems had more registered voters
RE: Biden rising in polls but not much....
Obama is still right: “Never underestimate Biden’s ability to f#@* things up.”
If he is still president by November he will preside over inflation that damages all the voters and unrest after something is brought up against the former President Trump in court. If people “don’t like the direction the country is going” then why vote Dem again?
I hope you are right. I guess we are going to find out. I can’t get rid of that feeling something ominous could befall us before the mid terms. Hope not.
Every election, the message is the same. “Democrats are invincible. Rah rah rah”
McConnell might be clever, and might be evil, but only a fool believes he wants to lose. One would have to ignore the obvious evidence. Why spend $28m on Vance? Is it some sort of fake out? Awfully expensive trick.
The Hill is a democrat mouthpiece.
Don’t believe anything you read in the democrat left wing media.
ANYTHING !!!
Fake news template, beat down pubbies. Don’t believe anything from the liars.
Please the gop house will win at least 30 seats
The senate meh
Did you go and try to stop any statues from coming down?
You got some wounds to prove that?
You go and fight during the FIRST or second coup attempts? the second one being successful.
Or just another loud mouth with no b.lls.
THAT I have seen too much of.
disagree.
the level of theft in november will exceed the theft in 2020.
the democrats are getting better.
the republicans are still miles behind
Deep State is just signalling that they are going to pick more Democrats than Republicans.
Correct.
They create a Narrative to cover for the vote rigging, then shout down the people who protest [see True The Vote] with their Media monopoly.
The fallout from the Dobbs decision is going to have a net negative effect on the Republicans.
You cannot take away a 50 year old “right” without consequences.
