Election handicappers are shifting Speaker Paul Ryan's (R-Wis.) House district toward Democrats after his retirement announcement Wednesday morning.
The Cook Political Report moved Wisconsin's 1st District from a "solid Republican" seat to a "lean Republican" seat based on the news, while Sabato's Crystal Ball out of the University of Virginia shifted the race from "likely Republican" to a toss-up.
No serious Republican candidate had been running against Ryan for the nomination. But now with his impending retirement, Republicans have until the June 1 filing deadline to find another candidate to best Paul Nehlen, a white nationalist who lost handily to Ryan in the 2016 GOP primary.

Janesville is 20 miles from where I live. He only held that seat because his family has lived there for generations and everybody knows him. It is a very liberal town. This is a sure democrat pickup.
How is it that you know that?
I live in his district and see what is going on in Wisconsin. Ryan waited until the last minute to screw the voters and Republican Party since now we have to scramble within a month to find a decent candidate and funding. There is at least one Dem who has been campaigning for at least 6months now. The Dems want that seat so badly they will throw unlimited amounts of money at it now. Republicans couldnt even hold on to a Supreme Court seat when it hasnt been won by a liberal in over 20 years. Republicans in this state have zero fight in them and democrats are now rabid.
Bingo!
.
“Election Analists” = propagandists.
.
.
Rust Belt economics should be sufficiently improved by election day that Republicans win 90% of the seats there.
.
What are you smoking? That is a seriously deluded statement. Seriously.
.
BS!
Just hang on and watch.
Homeless panhandlers are becoming a thing of the past everywhere; just look around.
This is why Mueller is in a panic and doing things that will get him disbarred.
.
Where do you live? I see more homeless and panhandlers everywhere. Mueller and the Dems are gaining power every day with no one to stop them. Mueller is doing crazy things becaus he CAN and he knows no one will stop him because he has absolute power. It also makes Trump and the Republicans look weak and silly by thumbing his nose at them and daring them to do something and they just sit there and take it. Again, what are you smoking that enables you to see all of this with such rose colored glasses? There is nothing positive goiing on right now for conservatives. They are being destroyed every day and will be decimated in the mid terms.
.
Take a sedative, seriously!
.
Im just telling you the reality since you appear to be living on another planet.
.
Someday you’ll want to come back and visit Earth.
.
Im pretty sure Im the only one of us currently on planet earth and with a grasp of reality.

In your condition, its possible that you could believe almost anything.
We will see, if it does, that explains Ryan acting like a Democrat.
