A race-by-race analysis at ScottRasmussen.com shows that 28 of these Republican seats are at a high level of risk

How many Democrat seats are at a high level of risk to switch to Republican?

So they discuss potential GOP at risk or possible turn over seats.
What about the Dems? Are everyone of their seats secure for them?

Unknown how many Democrat seats at risk, but
it is more difficult to "get out the vote" in a non-presidential election year.
Many voters will get complacent and fail to show up to vote.
Complacency is the conservative challenge, not the Democrats.
Volunteer to rally the troops !

Reality check. The way the Republicans did this budget and that they did not stand up for ANYTHING in the Deplorable Agenda means that Republicans will have a hard time being elected for so much as local dogcatcher. Don't ask us to vote for "the lesser of two evils". The lesser of two evils is the Dems, since they don't lie about their agenda during campaign season.

Do they seriously think this will help them in November? It'll help the dems who will use it as a campaign plus what great negotiators they are.

Beyond disgusted.

The Republican Party needs an enema, and getting wiped out in November is one way to do it.

Sure it will impact Trump in the short-term, but hopefully they’ll have their act together for 2020, and get rid of the deadwood in the meantime.

None. He lists two as toss-ups and a couple as only tilting Democrat. Three issues are apparently feeding the chance of Democrat pickups. The first is the tax bill and what the loss of the SALT deduction does to Republicans in Illinois, Pennsylvania, New York, California, and New Jersey. The second is the Pennsylvania redistricting. And the third are the large number of retirements removing any advantage an incumbent might have. On the other hand the election is over seven months away. A lot can happen in that time.

The fourth issue feeding the chance of Democrat pickups is that the GOP has so badly damaged their credibility as a political party that even many voters in their own base will stay home.

Civil War? So be it! If the president doesn’t veto this proposed budget I will not vote this November. If that means the rats take over; they are already in charge as far as I am concerned. Bring a CW on and I’ll gather up my guns and join in. Every country can use a revolution once in a while and at present we are nearly there.

(Not that my vote matters here in rat infested NJ anyway).

After this budget bill there will be far more “at-risk” seats.

People stay home when the only option is a sell-out loser.

The fear of this must be instilled in the libs.

They need to know in no uncertain terms that any action taken against the rightfully elected president of the United States will be viewed as a hostile attack on our country. It will be viewed as sedition and rebellion and dealt with as such.

So you are for repeating the 2006 midterm election. Do you realize that if we lose the House the rats will impeach President Trump, and if we lose the Senate, they will remove him from Office

WAKE UP!!!

If the messaging for the fall from the GOP is going to be the same as they used in the PA-18 special election, the republicans will lose the house. PERIOD.

They will gain Senate seats, but they are going to lose far more than 22 or 23 seats and lose the house.

I have never seen such utter incompetence in all my life.
