Glad the pinko in not going to be Guv of Florida.

No kidding, because I actually live in Florida! I would have serious indigestion if Gillum won.

Looks like we are going to lose a US Senate seat in MS due to McDaniel playing spoiler

Hey, dp, I have read where you are Italian-American and I was wondering if you have heard of a guy named Sebastian Maniscalco, who is a comedian who focuses on his family and he is a riot. We saw him on Amazon Prime in a routine called “Why would you do that?”, which is gut=busting funny.

Give it a try.

It’s a joke holding off the call of Scott beating Nelson in FL. I looked at the number of uncounted votes left and there are not enough votes even if he steal everyone of them

"I really thought we would hold it, I feel like a fool. Pollyanna pixie dust OD."

The only problem with FR is that we preach to the choir. We bolster our beliefs sometimes at the risk of isolation from reality. And yes, that reality sometimes is counter to what we think is right and just. Do not consider yourself a fool, just color yourself as optimistic.

I don’t get what the hysteria is all about here. This was a win tonight on balance. I hear the word Pyrrhic thrown around for the Dems maybe taking a 3-5 seat lead in the House. For any of you bedwetters out there who daydreamed about sleeping with the middle school, head cheerleader in 8th-grade civics instead of listening. Bills have to be voted on by the Senate also and signed by the President. So what do any of you with a working frontal cortex think endless investigations and screeching on the House floor is a sure winner in 2020. Really? The Democrats blew their wad tonight, their hatred of trump and a motivated base and all they can come up with is less than usual midterm party flip? RBG will die the next year and Trump will get another conservative on the Court. 2020 will be a very good year and what he got done in 2 years in reference to taxes and regulation will pay dividends. Cheer up lad and lasses, you win some, you lose some and some you lose by a little.

Down goes McCaskill.

I wish we could have held the House, but I doubt the Demonrats can do too much damage.

Not all investigations are shut down. We still have the Senate ( just wish Jordan was in the Senate )

MS you have to have 50% or above to win. If no candidate wins 50% the top two go to another vote in December.

It could be worse. We took our lumps with the House but we held the Senate and the OH and FL statehouses.
