Gotta say, in 50 years of watching politics, I've never seen "the House" called before individual races for the House have been called.

We have 200 "Smith vs. Jones" races out there that haven't been tallied. LS

Yes, but starting as soon as pelosi is speaker is 100 new investigations of the President and if he fires Sessions or Rosenstien they will impeach him for obstruction of justice. The appearance of obstruction will be unavoidable. Think about it. The President had the authority to fire Sessions and Rosenstein from day one but through all the turbulence he kept them on board. Then right after the democrats take the house and launch scads of new investigations THEN he fires them? The Democrats and the media would have a field day. The Dems will say the president is only firing them to avoid prosecution and the optics would be insurmountable.

Might as well face the facts we are stuck with Sessions, Rosenstein and Mueller and never ending investigations for the next two years.

It is Godlessness that kills us. A Godly woman will vote right.

We need to find ways to reach the stupid. We are too integral to lower ourselves to learn how to attract the stupid, we think. We don’t relate to them. We always target thinking people. The dems major on the stupid. When are we going to realize that stupid people vote too, and there are lots of them?

Bad candidates lost the House

We simply had too much exposure

Open seats favored the Dems

There are many factors that to into a prediction. Turnout, historical voting patterns.

Fox got it right. Their black box prediction engine worked, and they beat the other outlets.

I’m not going to get into a “yes, they did “, “no, they didn’t” conversation with someone that is probably cooking up a Vegas shooter style conspiracy theory.

go with God. enjoy your delusion.

Don’t forget Napolitano and Perino — and Dobbs is pulling some funny stuff now. Let’s face it: We’ve been the frog in the kettle when it coms to Fox. As they’ve dialed up their left-wing reporting we’ve been complacent and spent most of our time there.

Ann coulter was right many years ago when she said women never should have been the right to vote. (And I’m one.) It’s about feeeelings with most of them.

“it’s better to distract her with dinner and a movie every election day,”

Or spike her breakfast orange juice with a sleep-inducing something.

Looks like Stabie is defeating JJ. I am do heartbroken.

I'd like to see how he did in Detroit. IMHO they may vote their color when they're getting free sh*t, but not otherwise. I live close enough to know...

Of course you’re not going to argue with me because you’re wrong...Fox called early and the rest oddly enough held off

Per Breitbart and Joel Pollack

__________

“Fox News ✔ @FoxNews BREAKING: The Fox News Decision Desk projects that Democrats will take control of the House of Representatives for the first time in eight years. https://fxn.ws/2zud6xg 8:40 PM - Nov 6, 2018

No other network followed Fox News’ lead, with CNN and MSNBC preferring instead to track close races, largely east of the Mississippi River.”

https://www.breitbart.com/the-media/2018/11/06/critics-question-fox-news-calling-house-for-democrats-with-california-polls-still-open/

Rather than admit your error you go personal....anyone can do that

nbc called it shortly after fox, while all the sacred CA polls were still open.

I don’t have to prove you any more wrong than that.

Ok

Joel Pollack who runs Breitbart is wrong

I’m a potential mass shooting conspirator by your logic

I’m actually wrong factually on occasion and I admit it

You not your strong suit is it?

Humility that is

Btw Fox called the House at 6:30 PST

NBC called the House for the Dems at 7:49 PST

CNN at 8:15 PST

ABC after CNN
