Senate Republicans started the cycle with a good electoral map that gave them some hope that they could gain seats, even in a mid-term election when history strongly suggests that they should lose them. But, a growing schism in the Republican Party is threatening to erode many of the advantages Senate Republicans have, and is beginning to jeopardize their ability to gain seats as they are forced to fight multiple primaries that have the potential to provide Democrats with opportunities that didnt exist just a month ago.

The entire premise is that primarily the RINOs and tossing Ryan out weakens the prospects for retaining Republican Senate control. The article attempts to persuade constitutionalists that Roy Moore and a batch of new conservatives will be less competitive against Democrats than Flake and all of the rest of the targeted globalist.
The article is dead wrong.
We need people who will enact Trump's agenda when he is right and only block him when he strays to the left.
...and does he like Cheese Pizza?
The GOP doesn’t have a super majority.
They just have a majority of both the house and senate.
Thank you for linking Cook’s final 2016 prediction: Hillary 278-214 (Fl, NC tossups)
Puts Cook’s credibility in perspective.
The Republicans - especially conservative ones, Nationalists, right-wing will win more seats. Sure, some GOPe are in trouble and might get primaried out which will be good news. Basically, John McCain is a turd in the punch bowl but he won’t be able to stop the Trump Agenda in the end. And the Democrats are a death cult drinking arsenic laced koolaid with complete freakshow carnival acts like that ex-Jim Jones cultist Frederica the Hat Freak and her mardi gras costumes making the Dems look lunatic as the fake news media pretends to us that all this BLM shit and Antifa terrorism and kneeling and Hillary mouthing off more loserville pig droppings no one wants to even listen to, doesn’t matter what fake poll the commies push, the Dems are suicidal and many look like Manson level lost in their own drug fantasy.
As soon as ANY tax cut passes the markets will boom even more and Americans will vote their 401ks, bank accounts, jobs, money and to hell with the rest, I am telling you by next year it will be clear as day Trump has already won reelection.
In fact, he already has right now.
Yes they do. They have the Presidency, Senate, and House. Democrats have no power to stop them.
Watch and learn, grasshopper.
The only reason they were given a Senate majority was to Repeal ObamaCare. They lied and failed.
I would like a new majority.
...and Senate Republicans
Bannon is behaving like a paid Democrat mole.

Wow, you are buying this Washington Swamp Establishment propaganda piece ... hook, line & sinker. Dont let them fool you.
I tend to be a pretty harsh Bannon critic, but not in this case. One hundred percent of the blame for what Bannon is doing falls on McConnell. Had the Leader lifted his littlest finger to support Trump, Bannon might not have needed to go this route.
I read the whole thing and she never backs up her thesis but just assumes it.
W! Is that you? I want my two votes back, you bastard!
Agree.
How dare you..?
Well, if sphinx is W. then you MUST be Karl Rove. You can kiss my behind too. In public so you can’t claim sex abuse. Of course.
This is just filler for their website. The real question of 2018 is will we get a supermajority or just several seats? Either way Democrats are going to hate it.
Oops.
I forgot where I was.
I didn’t post that. It was the Russians.
Or the NRA.
The Republicans will do whatever they have to do to lose the majority. Anything to stop Trump.
