SIREN: Pollsters Say Democrats Might Fall Short In Retaking the House

SIREN: Pollsters Say Democrats Might Fall Short In Retaking the House...Which Could Trigger Another Meltdown (FULL TITLE)

So, with Associate Justice Brett Kavanaugh on the Supreme Court after a hellacious confirmation battle, it’s no shocker that liberals are angry. They lost. We won. Regardless, Democrats losing means it was a great day in America. Still, we’ve heard about the blue wave, the hyper-Democratic voter enthusiasm, and how some revolution will begin now that Kavanaugh has been seated, undoubtedly constrained to the most liberal parts of the country. The generic ballot advantage has favored the Democratic Party all year, though, in recent weeks, the Left’s character assassination campaign against Kavanaugh has energized Republicans like never before. Republican women are furious over this smear campaign, and they’re ready to punish Democrats for it. Not all women, indeed.

Now, with the GOP base just as animated, it’s now confirmed that the Democrats’ "destroy Kavanaugh" campaign wasn’t a brilliant kill shot; it was a dirty bomb that blew up in their faces. Pollsters from The New York Times, CBS News, and FiveThirtyEight are giving rather measured analyses on the upcoming midterm election, which are 29 days away. In short, the Democrats could fall short in retaking the House. With the GOP in better shape for the Senate races, which has always been the case, the fact that the Left could fail in their titanic endeavor would be another meltdown of epic proportions; one that I want to happen so desperately. Mr. Pollowitz at Twitchy compiled the threads.

If the pollsters are throwing in the towel this early, it must be pretty bad for the democrats.

The pollsters would prop up a dead democratic donkey and claim it was a shoe-in.

Imagine getting 10 Senate seats, a Filibuster proof Senate. Imagine the liberal tears of rage that would let loose!

“I predict we keep control of the House”..... if the foot troops get out and vote.

Early voting here in NC opens in 10 days. I’ll be there.

Like one of my coworkers asked this morning with a smile as wide as the grand canyon, you tired of winning yet?

We will likely gain 5-6 seats in the House, and at least 2 in the senate.

They’ll be rioting in the streets. Any excuse to riot, burn cities, loot, club privileged white people, etc., ie, advance the cause of social justice any way they can. “Not fascism when WE do it.”

But the Blue Wave is sure thing.

There is no need for Dems to vote.

I plan to cast an futile early (first time) Red vote in FL.

Yes, we'll keep the House and pick up seats in the Senate.

But we can't be complacent...get out there and vote and take others with you!

Early voting may not be the issue.....FINAL COUNTING IS THE GAME.

~~~ consult Joe Stalin for the concept.

The headline is putting it very mildly as to how well the Democrats will do.

They are likely going to lose a few seats in both the House and Senate.

I predict lunatic liberals taking their psychosis and acting out to new, extreme levels.

This is a lot of speculation.

It’s all about who gets out to vote, as it always is in any election.
