If the betting line were 40% , I think most of the money would be put on under.
No, even better, the MSM will claim that the "OLD Racist SOUTH" full of ever aging white men are giving her the "racist, sexist" boot.
You know, because they just can't stand "progress"
Following a story on the rise of right wing groups that "may or may not" be part of a "possible increase in KKK activity".
None has been actually documented or confirmed, YET. But the Times-Picayune will be on this important story in the event that it may or may not happen.
Same here. I think anything over 40 will be considered a moral victory for the dims.
Or .... Cassidy wins 55-45 in a nail biter. :)
I’m very excited about the next congress.
Mitch wants to placate the RATS because he is already anticipating the time that he will be in the minority party again.
Who knows - there's supposed to be some good times before the final declines that lead up to His return.
Sunday headline:
Landrieu Upset by Rebirth of Southern Intolerance — Koch Brothers Suspected of Financing Bigoted Movement to Oust the Senior Senator
LOL
We may be heading into another short-lived age-of-reason.

An ephemeral event, should it happen. Emotions trump logic nearly every time in this society.
I’m very excited about the next congress.

Right now I don’t see any great political warriors in the ranks who can lead the party toward great victories. Current GOP “leadership” is just not up to the fight. Things are so bad that we need the political equivalent of a Patton to retake lost ground.
For sure - emotions are running rampant and trumping logic in a big way - even on FR from time to time. The Left uses and manipulates emotions to solidify support from those they oppress - they are the equivalent of a crack dealer that gets people hooked, and when the drug ruins lives, the dealer comes back in and tells them the solution is more crack. The Right sees through most of this type thing, but the emotions tend to prevent any sort of wide-spread unified movement to actively pare away at the Left power base - we get a few anomalies like the last election then promptly throw it away for a decade or so - mostly due to cockiness and the illusion that we can now wait for our heroes to come in and save us w/o our active attempts to keep weeding out the Left as a first priority and cleaning out our wishy-washy ranks as the next priority.
After an election like the last one, I really think that many Republican legislators go on cruise control and just enjoy the next couple of years making as few waves as possible. The icing on the cake for them is they can cut a few deals (often referred to as “compromises”) with Dems and keep the media off their backs. All they really want to do is coast, and of course that usually means going downhill.
The Republican base doesn’t seem to mind this cyclical charade. So nothing ever changes.
On occasion we get to see some Dems removed from office (e.g., Harry Reid) but that’s about all the satisfaction we get.
The election is today (December 6). I’ll be watching the news tonight.
Thanks, me too!!
