Democrat advantage 2018 midterms
Cnn ^ | 12/20/2017 | Cnn

Posted on 12/20/2017 2:46:22 PM PST by mikelets456

Democrats' already wide advantage over Republicans in a hypothetical Congressional matchup has grown, according to a new CNN poll conducted by SSRS. At the same time, enthusiasm about voting next year has increased among Democrats nationwide following an unexpected win in Alabama's Senate special election and a strong showing in Virginia's state government elections last month.

Among registered voters, 56% say they favor a Democrat in their congressional district, while 38% prefer a Republican. That 18-point edge is the widest Democrats have held in CNN polling on the 2018 contests, and the largest at this point in midterm election cycles dating back two decades. The finding follows several other public polls showing large double-digit leads for Democrats on similar questions

Federal domestic policy wouldn’t be a lose cannon if patriots supported Pres. Trump in leading the states to repeal the ill-conceived 17th Amendment.

The 16th Amendment can disappear too.

One dynamic that I would find intriguing to see would be Trump and his effect on bringing in new pro Trump candidates at the grassroots level and continue the support and enthusiasm for MAGA.

Don’t believe it!
Dems have to defend 26 Senate Seats, Republicans only 8.
Make them pour sand down a Rat Hole.
Sherrod Brown (D-OH) is going down

...lining up “ordinary people” to proclaim how bad it is.
By your quotes I can tell that you are alluding to the "ordinary people" that always end up being shills, Democrat operatives, etc. The Dems are so arrogant they think we still believe their stuff. We don't.

Wasn’t it CNN and the “polls” that predicted a landslide for Hillary?

Thought so.

This looks pretty trollish, but, I’ll bite. When calling people stupid remember:

“A lot” is two words.
“Of” has a vowel.
“Don’t” and “It’s” have apostrophes.
Punctuation usually ends a sentence.
“Ill-informed” is one word.
And “gullible” is not even in the dictionary. :0)

Oh, and perhaps a few people like Trump, he won the Presidency.

I don’t think many Republicans or voters realized what happened today with Anwar in the tax bill.

They need to wake up and smell the coffee..

They aren’t dreaming anymore..

ANWAR IS A REALITY !

Folks let that sink in for a minute.

Almost a 40 year right fight to get Anwar open for drilling for oil.

That there : IS A BIG DEAL....

” Let them pour sand down a rathole “

George Sorros is already doing that by pouring $ 18 Billion down a rathole.

POLL = lie

I understand that a properly conducted poll can provide an insight in voters. However, we now know that any poll put forth today is nothing more than propaganda to sway public opinion. I am not sure why they spend money on them they should just make up the results they want and present it as fact. Some will believe, many will not.
