We know that TCruz is in big trouble in TX, and that alone probably means no national advantage to conservatives. and the gubernatorial candidates in GA and FL have been faring poorly in polls.

I’m not optimistic. President Trump may drag a few sorry asses over the finish line but we’ve got a lot of less than spectacular candidates this fall. And in Congress they’ve done everything they can to have an inside-the-beltway Never Trump history (no repeal/replace of ObamaCare, no wall funding, no end to DACA, no immigration reform, and so forth). Outside the beltway they are no better. Pathetic bunch of Republicans that scurry to safe spaces and don’t take stands. Can they hold the majorities in November? Depends upon if they get on with Trump or continue to cross him.

I think you prepare the worst by planning for Presidential turnout of 138 million voters. Not 83 or 91 million like the last two mid-terms.

Trump and the GOP have done very little. This is not going to turn out well.

PA could easily flip in the Senate, but Lou Barletta is a ghost.

We should have a ground game like 2010, and it’s nothing like that.

Well, I ‘ll tell you this, if the senate is going to sit with it’s thumb in its ass until Thursday to hear testimony from this lying slut, I think I might just go on vacation in November.

I have had enough of this crap, and I have had enough of the GOP.

One YUUUUUUUGE difference is that none of he other presidents got so involved in the midterm elections as Trump has. Lots and lots of rallies. Plus this midterm election has been NATIONALIZED. Tip O'Neill said that all politics are local. Well, true in the past but NOT this time.

BLUE FLUSH COMING!!!

On average, Democrat presidents lose 35.2 seats in the House first midterm after an election.

Republican presidents only lose 11.2 seats in the House in their first midterm on average.

Again, this is every president since WWII”

I think it will be interesting...I think we will either have a close loss in the house, but I think it will be a surprise with a few house seats picked up, 10 Senate and 1 or 2 governor pick up...

Analysis is based on normal democrat vs republicans...this is uniparty times and a constitutionalist president...as Rush says, such comparisons are bunk...

Stop calling them Democratic.

There’s nothing democratic about the Democrat party.

The only thing that can stop the big red wave is massive voter fraud. Must be vigilant.

I pulled for Republicans in 2006, but many Republicans were fed up with the President Bush and the GOP’s way of conciliation with the D’s on everything. It’s no surprise they lost seats that year.

Even Rush Limbaugh described the upset as liberating, as he had been exhorting the Republicans to fight back against Democrat shenanigans and obstruction and to end conciliation. People vote for fighters, not appeasers, and the base proved him right. They didn’t turn out.

I can face reality as soberly as anyone. But the only way to beat a trend is for everyone to give it their best. It’s happened before. It can be done again. And with Donald Trump as President to motivate the base we have as good of a chance to beat the trend as any party ever had.

He fights, the base knows it, and I can’t wait for November 6!
