IMO the Reps will be fortunate to retain control of the House. It will boil down to turnout. Let's see what happens to Balderson on Tuesday. The Dems have been turning out for the special elections to a much greater degree than Reps.
Trump will be on the campaign trail big time. Obama is expected to get involved as well. The MSM will be working with the Dems. This has become a referendum on the Trump administration. Rep candidates must adopt the Trump positions on the issues or they will surely lose. Immigration and trade will be the litmus tests.
That's probably why The President is doing all these rallies.
blue wave ain’t happening. I’d bet on R gains, in fact, BUT turnout is the key, so let’s not get over confident. Dems have so much rage fueling them every day, every hour that their turnout could be huge.
....
Blue wave will happen...blue liquid at the bottom of their portopotties...
Central Ohio ads are overwhelming. Balderson clearly spending more and ads are negative(O’Conner (a magic name in Columbus) is Pelosi’s stooge, he will raise taxes, he opposes the Wall, he will abolish ICE, love MS-13, etc.). Trump and Pence have been here along with other surrogates. Kasich is sitting it out (he may not help anyway he is so unpopular).
Kellyanne decries the loss of 45 incumbent Rs who retired. She points out that is a huge disadvantage to saving seats and majority.
Yes indeed this election has Donald on the line and it is now 44-R, 43-D
If Balderson loses McConnell and Ryan will use the defeat to stop anything of Trumps agenda including approving Kavanaugh.
