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 you are a blue collar working guy Democrat, how on earth can you vote for a people in that party who bring nothing to the table other than Russian collusion, impeachment and sanctuary cities? How does help the average working guy????

Personally, being a Canuck and not fully appreciating how the US election system works, I would be concerned about election districts(?) where Dems control the State, district or city. After all, aren’t those the places where so many deceased voters invariably vote for Democrats? I think THAT is the thing to be concerned about! Hopefully, Pubbies control such areas because trusting a Dhimmicrat not to ‘fix’ the election is like trusting a shark not to bite you when you are swimming in ‘chummed’ waters.

Here's their Blue Wave:

I think that I'm going to have a party that night at my house...I'm going to call it the "Kavanaugh Kegger." Plenty of beer, grain alcohol-laced punch and ice (in the handy throwing size).

It’s a district by district thing. Depends on how district lines have been redrawn and how close some races were 2 years ago. It will be close though.

“There is no need for Dems to vote.”


Now, now, now, let’s be reasonable and fair. Of COURSE the Dems should vote.

However, in order to avoid fights at the polling places, party leaders drew straws, and it was determined that Republicans will vote on Tuesday, November 6, and Democrats on Wednesday, November 7. That way we can begin to heal our nation.

“There will be a line a mile long of Libs ready to jump off the Golden Gate Bridge if the Dems fail to retake at least the House this Fall. “


How can I get the photo concession for that? A Capitalist has to make a buck any way he can, you know. :>)

I hope you are correct.

It would EPIC considering the buildup of Hope and Revenge the Rats have been experiencing these past Months.

If it happens, it will be 2016 Deja Vu all over again.
Imagine, even more Youtube Videos of the Leftists breaking down in tears, whining and experiencing complete Mental Breakdowns.

Let us Pray...

Imagine getting 10 Senate seats, a Filibuster proof Senate.

For that to happen the gop-e needs about 65 seats....I can think of about four that would oppose this.

Only in far left cities.

Outside of those areas, well... their loss of the supreme court means normal people can go all Korean Shopkeeper on them with no repercussions.

Bring it.

Another meltdown? How can the Left have another meltdown when they’re already melted down. They never solidified from their first meltdown.

Since many of the districts they are counting on for the Dems have no polls listed, I am wondering if we might increase control in the House.

The house was gone the minute they played the game they played with Kavanaugh... anyone telling you otherwise is a liar or a fool.

I have the over/under at 17 seats, but right now, I would bet on the under.

The failed Kavanaugh campaign with its screaming, hysterical harpies and sea hags plus Flake and Avenatti as traitor and peep hole shyster respectively, was an incredibly high profile win for our side but especially for POTUS. I’m beginning to think the vaunted “Blue Wave” is going to be tantamount to a boof in a windstorm
