Things are looking bad for the Democrats.

I wonder why.

I’m pretty worried about Arizona. I think the bisexual dem may just take Jeff Flakes old seat

Looking bad for Dems at midterms.......best news of the day.

[LongWayHome]

Looks like we get 4-6 seats.

I resisted Limbaugh’s ‘the media are the real leaders of the Democrat party’ for quite some time but the evidence is hard to ignore.

The Democrats seem to have completely forgotten that candidates win elections ie people vote for people.

Part of their reverie is that Obama was elected because he was black despite being, for all practical purposes, a Pacific Islander. But they put his win down to successful campaigning. Bull.

Another part may be that the Clintons kneecapped, blackmailed, outspent or merely killed off any threat. They won by default and far too many people believed it was down to their political/policy acumen.

The last part is the hypnosis resulting from the media’s daily screechfest. Dem leaders watch MSNBC and CNN and actually believe the networks represent anything resembling a critical mass of voters, let alone a majority view on any subject.

Dems love the snark. They love being on TV. They love being told they’re funny when they’re about as funny as cancer.

They are fooling nobody but themselves and the media’s mirror, like that in Snow White, flatters to deceive.

Wisconsin is not looking good - 2 good GOP candidates are cutting each other up campaigning in the Primary. Tammy Baldwin is sitting back watching the battle.

Ohio is a complete disaster - Sherrod Brown up 15%+ and will walk in

Things are looking bad for the Democrats. I wonder why.

It's because every time they or one of their constituent groups appear on TV, they come off as a bunch of bat guano crazy lunatics who just escaped the asylum.

Take nothing for granted.

Goldman Sachs ain’t gunna like this - given it’s true.

[Okeydoker]

Lets hope it looks so bad they lose every seat! They deserve that.

[Zathras]

The sad part is if the NeverTrump gang would have helped instead of working for the RATS, we could be looking at picking up 6-8 Senate seats.

[lightman]

I wish and hope that Bob Casey, Jr. (Dim-PA) will soon be added to that list.

[Ann Archy]

Democrats are VILE, EVIL and CLASSLESS....and so are their VOTERS! Hey Dems....you can have them....they are DISGUSTING.

65 and 12- GOP picks up 65 House seats and 12 Senate seats. How? 10 Dem Senators are from Trump States, plus Tim "Guggenheim" Kaine in Virginia and Amy Klochubar in Minnesota. Even Fauxcahontas could be beat.

With the economy booming, peace breaking out on the Korean Peninsula, and the Democrats attempting to beat and murder their political opposition, I can see a Filibuster-proof Senate, massive majority in the House, and the Democrats reduced to futile rage after Trump decides to pack the court with 4 more Conservative justices (this will leave the SC with 11 Conservative Justices after Ruth Buzzi Ginsburg and The Wise Latina assume room temperature).

This will lead to the repeal of the 16th, 17th, 23rd, and 26th Amendments. We'll make it a national mission to kick out EVERY ILLEGAL ALIEN INVADER (we destroyed Naziism, the Imperial Japanese Empire, ground the USSR into the Dust, put a man on the moon, and invented the flask tie)

How hard could it be to deport 45 million illegal alien invaders?.

DUH!!!! The Republicans were going to gain seats in the Senate no matter what... the Dems could have a banner year, and the Republican Party was gaining seats in the Senate. Anyone with the most basic understanding of US politics can look at the Map of the Senate seats this cycle and tell you that.

Anyone, anyone, anyone who ever told you the Dems were going to gain seats in, let alone take control of the Senate is a flat out liar, or so incredibly ignorant they should probably be required to repeat elementary school.

The GOP should make a real effort in New Jersey. There is nobody in the state defending the slimeball Menendez, who escaped his corruption prosecution with a mistrial. The evidence that he was bribed was really incontrovertible, except to a handful of idiotic (or bought) morons on his jury.

Menendez led Republican ex-Marine Hugin 28 percent to 24 percent, with 46 percent undecided, in a recent poll. Nobody on the left is eager to vote for Menendez, who also had to beat down underage hooker allegations. Hugin's a milquetoast middle-of-the-roader, but he'd be a great pick up over Menendez, and next to closeted presidential pretender Corey Booker.

If I were the dems I would go in with an anti-fracking anti-pipeline pro-environment pro- EPA regulatory bureaucracy stance. I would make it the cornerstone of my campaign. I know for a fact those folk detest economic growth and jobs in a productive industry and would not trade a pristine environment for a better economy. /s/

Remember, they cheat.

Let’s pick up a few surprising seats...Murphy seat and Warren’s Tipi, er sorry I meant seat...

[Teacher317]

Nice cheerleading, but the numbers are not good... yet. It's even or +1 at best as of today.
(Bold races = currently favoring the likely GOP candidate)

Danger for DEMS
FL (Trump won by 1): Bill Nelson-D (AUG 24 Primary, current polling has Nelson behind Rick Scott 46-41)
IN (Trump by 19): Joe Donnelly-D already polling behind 48-47 to Mike Braun
ND (Trump by 36): Heidi Heitkamp-D down 48-44 to Kevin Kramer-R

SHOULD be danger for Dems, but somehow, unconscionably, isn't a GOP lead yet.
WV (Trump won by 42): Joe Manchin-D was polling behind Patrick Morrissey (44-46 on MAY 10), but now up 50-43 (JUN 19)
MO (Trump by 18): Claire McCaskill-D up, but only 48-44 over Josh Hawley
MT (Trump by 21): Jon Tester-D up 52-44 over Matt Rosendale in May, but Trump visited recently

That's +3, but more could be in play, with a huge effort form the RNC (yeah, right)...

OH (Trump won by 8): Sherrod Brown, seeking his 3rd term in Ohio (GOP candidate is Jim Renacci, current polling at 51-38 for Brown)
WI (Trump won by 0.8%): Tammy Baldwin (AUG 14 Primary, Vukmir likely GOP candidate but polls behind 49-40)
PA (Trump won by 0.7%): Bob Casey (Lou Barletta is a weak challenger, 47-32 is the most recent poll)
MICH (Trump won by 0.2%): Debbie Stabenow, 40 yrs in MI politics (AUG 7 Primary, Stabenow polling 51-30 over both likely opponents)

Still, +3 would be nice... But... NEV, TENN, and ARIZ are currently potential DEM pickups:

There's 4 current GOP seats in danger:
NEV (Trump lost by 2): Jacky Rosen-D up 45-41 early over incumbent Dean Heller-R
ARIZ (Trump won by 4): AUG 28 Primary to replace Jeff Flake (RINO)... Krysten Sinema-D polling ahead of Martha McSally-RINO early, 39-32, with 20+% undecided.
TENN (Trump won by 26): Corker (RINO) retiring, Primary AUG 2, Phil Bredesen-D polled over Marsha Blackburn-R, 46-43 on MAY 1.

MISS (Trump won by 18): Special Election Jungle Primary to replace retired RINO Thad Cochran... leader is current appointee Cindy Hyde-Smith-R over Mike Espy-D and Chris McDaniel-R, 30-22-17. There is a likely runoff if nobody gets 50%. She is polling ahead of Espy 46-34, head to head.

The other 20 races are pretty much already decided (>10% spread in poling). 13 DEM (WA, CA MINNx2, VA, CT, RI, MASS, NJ, NY, MD, DEL, HI) and 5 GOP (MISS#2, TX, UT, NEB, WY) and 2 IND (Maine and VT)

Several August Primaries coming up.
