“Beto got a lot of votes in Texas.”

Perhaps we should deport Beto’s voter base.

I do not think Trump voters in 2016 turned out in sufficiently high numbers in 2018. Many are just to uninformed or lazy to take action.

That’s right - and Democrats have re-asserted state-level control of some states that were key flips for Trump in 2016, like Wisconsin. Trump may improve his popular vote performance or even win it outright, only to lose the Electoral College due to unpunished vote fraudsters.

If there was a “trump” (real world experience and NOT life long politicians) or 3 in every state the GOP would be invincible.

The margin in PA for the terrible Governor and for Casey Jr. was worrisome. The rat floor is higher and GOP ceiling lower in PA than in MI or WI. Those Philly suburbs. The rats would have gained the 3 House seats in the eastern part of the state that they did even without help from the new rat map.

Better candidates don’t matter if the Ds have legions of illegals who only vote the correct party line. The illegals/dead/mentally deficient, et al, do not respond to better candidates. They are sock puppets who exist to pad D vote totals.

Worth repeating with emphasis, this is really important.

That was a quite nice screed on your part and totally on the mark. Howevah, ... Like many things in life, things never change util they do. Like stocks keep going up, marriages last forever, status quo, blah blah. Until they don't.

So this may well be the point of no return, the gloves come off, and history records this as a turning point. There has to be blood and hangings at some point, it is unavoidable.

Hardly, Hoss. Doing better than Clinton and Obama is hardly anything to write home about, those are the only two in the past 50 years we did “better” than in terms of number of US House seats lost. More GOP seats haven’t been lost since 1974, gonna be 38 or so, that’s more than Reagan in ‘82, more than Bush’s second midterm nightmare. You wanna consider that a trifling amount? Fine, you fail math. If you want to pretend this was not a bad result go ahead but I ain’t gonna and I don’t care if it bothers you to see honest, non-head in the sand analysis. Dropped over 300 state leg seats.

We avoided complete disaster by holding a couple key Governorships like FL and OH, not losing more state house chambers than we did (solely because we drew the lines, which will be harder next time with more rat Governors) and most importantly by gaining a couple net in the Senate (knock on wood), which was more critical for us to hold.

But we should have done better with the seats that were up. ND and Missouri were gimmes. Rats won WV and MT where Trump won easily, gained AZ, and nearly took Texas. There aren’t many potential gains in 2020 aside from taking back Alabama. Missed opportunity.

And while the Senate was more important calling the purse-string controlling US House a “booby prize” is straight up ignorant, it’s a pretty lame psychological defense mechanism to devalue what you no longer have. You’ll see that when your tax bill goes up and when your turn on C-SPAN and some some Black guy holding a gavel is leading a witchhunt hearing because Trump farted in an elevator once. Other than getting judges confirmed anything good happening the next 2 years is precluded, instead it’s trying to fend off tax hikes and more federal dollars to suck out babies brains, ect ect.

As for “energy dissipating”? LOL. If you think the scum aren’t gonna have “energy” in 2020 when they try to steal the White House you’ve got another thing coming.

By all means, look on the bright side, Trump now has a great foil if he can use it. But spare me the useless spin like “We did better than almost any other President’s first midterm election”. This was a bad result and the worst part it was almost as bad as the media predictions.


Exceptional post. Should be required reading for all who think that this cycle wasn’t a wake-up call.

Good stuff...thanks.

LOL. Obviously we have a higher share of seats that we did in GD 1978 during the 40 year winter of rat permanent majority but so what? Going that low wasn’t a possibility. The NUMBER OF SEATS lost was HIGH. Higher than the number of seats that GOP has lost in any election since ‘74. That is BAD, not “not so bad” BAD.

“Wave” near as I can means most close races break to one side, in which case it was definitely a wave, a brown wave of toilet water. Most of the losses weren’t by a lot, rat wins were shallow, and that’s good, but they were wide, and included seats that have no businesses ever going rat like OK-5 and SC-1.
