Why has Florida been stuck on 93% for the last hour?

They’re not gonna win the house.

That chance has come and gone.

My thought as well. If we can roll up a few more seats in the Senate, Manchin may see the writing on the wall and decide to flip to the Good Side. He helped us with Kavanaugh. Maybe offer him a good committee assignment for jumping sides and pledging to work with DJT and not stab us in the back (with a much conviction as a former ‘Rat can muster on a pledge like that).

Drudge is saying NBC is predicting Dems reclaim the house? Huh?

They are trying to keep the Democrats on the Left Coast engaged.

I just checked in Texas, lots of areas have not even reported yet and Cruz is ahead at this time. Only 316 precinct’s reporting.

"Manchin should have lost. Must have quite a machine."

Naw, his opponent Morrissey was an uninspiring campaigner and viewed as a carpet bagger. That and the Manchin family has been a fixture in WV politics for 60 years. WV is a purple state, at least on the local level.

I wouldn’t be surprised if Manchin did switch.

If the Dems can't gain anything significant this race, they're just going to keep going farther left. What do they really have to offer Manchin? If he flips, it won't be because he left the Dems, it would be because the Dems left him.

>>>Once Texas goes, it’s curtains. Basically after about 200 years everything is back to Mexico.

I live here and I've been saying that for a long time. It will be very hard for the rest of the US to make up our 38 electoral votes. That's a 76 EV switch. That's huge. With the swing happening in Florida as well because of Hurricane Maria (and the demographic shift that will follow)...its probably going to happen in the next 20 years.

CNN people aren’t sounding very enthusiastic. They have conceded that the GP will expand the majority in the Senate.

They aren’t thinking overly optimistic about the house. At best, they think the Democrats will have a very narrow margin in the House.

We hold OK GOV, not close.

Rats hold RI, looks like the rat tops 50%. What went wrong there?
