What I’m saying is it doesn’t matter who votes, it’s who counts the votes that matters and the GOP Gov. and GOP SOS have let Dominion and the Democrats do it.

The GOP will lose BOTH races and Biden will have successfully taken over all 3 branches of Government - and meanwhile the GOP party is unconcerned, sheesh. I’m changing my registration to no-registration. The GOP embarrasses me

Republicans should feel good about their chances to win at least one, and that is all they really need.

Absolute BS. Not with flakes like Myth, Moocowski, and Collins.

The Judiciary is the 3rd branch.

“Republicans should feel good about their chances to win at least one, and that is all they really need.”

If both Loeffler and Perdue lose so that the Senate is 50-50, I would not be surprised if Joe Manchin switches parties to give Republicans a 51-49 advantage. I hope Mitch McConnell has already approached him about the possibility. Manchin doesn’t have much of a future as a Democrat since he has already come out against Medicare For All, abolishing the filibuster and fracking.

Manchin isn’t going to switch. Not in a million years.

I don't see it. If he had any integrity, he wouldn't be a democrat. But he is.

Democrat Fritz Hollins


Wow. There’s a name from the past. The main thing I remember about him was that creepy cone-shaped tongue.

I don't either, but don't write off possible redemption, either. Remember that a lot of us were things back in the day that we aren't now, you know, young and foolish, that kind of thing. I know I was. Manchin is old enough to know better, but if he does have a moment of stepping away from the dark side, we'd do well to have his vote with us than against us.

Don't get me wrong. We should not soften our stand on our fundamental principles. Manchin has to make the choice himself to come to us, not the other way around. But if he does, we may be in a stronger position to head off some of the more severe damage that Harris/Biden could inflict.

“Manchin isn’t going to switch. Not in a million years.”

You might be correct, but I wouldn’t bet on it. Manchin has no future in the party of AOC, Kamala Harris, and Bernie Sanders. McConnell could offer him some powerful committee chairmanships if he switches. Chuck Schumer won’t offer him anything to stay with the Democrats.

I see what you’re saying, but the smart money is to write it off.

I don’t know why anyone would believe the democrats would engage in their cheating shenanigans as much as they have but stop cheating at the 5-yard line.

I'll admit its a long shot, but think about this. Manchin is from a state whose electorate went over 2:1 for Donald Trump in the last two elections. The ‘Rat party platform is anathema to the mining industry. Manchin, if he isn't grossly stupid, should be able to read those numbers. Now the ‘Pubs may have to play some political games to bring him over, maybe a choice committee chairmanship, or something like that. He might just go for being a kingmaker.

I'm not saying I admire the guy or anything. I'm just looking at things from a realpolitik angle. In a closely divided Senate, numbers matter. We really need a firewall to keep Harris/Biden from running completely wild.

Turnout? Does this fool not pay attention? Turnout is useless when there is massive fraud.

The left is so corrupt they now fake millions of votes to the point of over 100% turnout.

We are getting robbed and NOTHING WILL BE DONE!

Calling Bill Barr, pick up the white courtesy phone.
