GOP heading for midterm wipeout as Blue Wave scenario gives Democrats 12-point generic ballot lead

The new NBC News-Wall Street Journal survey, taken six weeks before Americans head to the polls, shows Democrats leading Republicans by 52 percent to 40 percent for control of Congress. If it holds, that 12 percentage point margin would suggest a "blue wave" large enough to switch control of not just the House but also the Senate.

Right now and in last couple of weeks, Republicans have been silent.no surprise in current poll results.

If it weren’t for the corp tax cuts, IMO, the only thing we’d heard from (R)\’leadership’ is their support of the Deep State (don’t DARE fire...).

Nothing vs. DACA (kids in cages), O’care repeal (you remember, the SIX+ bills they passed in the minority that just, somehow, weren’t good enough when in the majority), DAMN quiet vs. $1T+ deficits, non-funded border wall, no crack-down on illegals or voter ID or...

If it weren’t for the (D) stepping on their own d!cks, I see very little for the enthusiasm around here to “Vote ‘em in AGAIN” (Yeah, yeah, *impeachment*...like that’s gonna happen. S*, let ‘em waste their time/$/political energy on pissing off the People)

Mimi is safe. Young is safe. Valadeo is safe.

The two now up in the air are Issa and Rohrabacher. Denham (?) is supposedly behind on 538 but it’s thought he’ll pull it out.

Sabato close in his district. May be one other we can steal

90% of Americans have no clue about politics and go in and pull the R or D lever.

My guess is you could do a poll for the midterms and ask if Hillary or trump will win and you would probably get a 75% rate of people answering. Yes they are that dumb.

Yes, they’ve abdicated their majority, walked away from everything they claimed to support. Not sure what they stand for at the moment.

Odd that Dems are 2/10 in special elections and that’s only because of crazy sex scandals
Obviously it’s the Dems election to lose because it’s mid term and they are the party out of power but I think they are deluding themselves that it’s gonna be a huge wave.
Republicans only have themselves to blame if they lose though

So, I looked at the internals of the fraud.... crud...propagand....dang. My keyboard keeps messing up and giving the wrong word for this thing.

The internals are as such. 33I, 34D, 26R. So, an 8 point outlier. So, it’s closer to a 3 point lead. Anything outside a 5 point lead is a loser for Dems.

Should be interesting watching the Dems heads explode on election night.

Georgia was in play. So was the Ukraine. To see which would give her the most money.

[spacewarp]

Got to look further down. It’s 33I/34D/26R.

If you’re not going to vote R, and you’re not insane (voting D or Green), consider voting for third partyy candidates. Look at the Veterans Party of America. Take a look at some of the others and see if something sparks your interest. Remember, if we have people who were going to sit out, voting third party, it would wake up those in the congress. If you were going to vote R, vote R. If you were going to vote D, check yourself into the nearest mental health center. If you were going to sit out, send a message instead.

Given what we’re seeing by the disgusting political assassination attempt, the attempted coup and a lot of other garbage from the left, we are getting MUCH angrier.
