Stupid question promoting self-defeating complacency

I agree with that number. I am putting the over/under at 16 now.

The GOP will lose 10 seats in the house and gain three in the senate. We’ll hold both houses.

I’d rather President Trump have a simple majority with the right Republicans than a super majority with the wrong ones.

There aren’t that many available House seats for the republicans to gain. What are you drinking?

Of course it is always someone else’s fault.

Democrat cheating will be epic.

This will give them a huge advantage that is not factored in the polls.

Obama last event was attended by ~ 750 people!!!

I have read that it was invitation-only, which would explain that number.

I decline to outguess the pundits and polls. I think anything could happen. With that written, consider the House map at Realclearpolitics: https://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2018/house/2018_elections_house_map.html

Identify the point where Iowa, Wisconsin and Minnesota join. From there fan out (but do not enter the city of Chicago) in the Upper Midwest until you have captured 25% of the tossups or tossups + lean. You don’t have to go far, and you will not have captured even 10% of the US population. I assert that this is a pretty homogeneous demographic and that as such the outcomes of those races will be quite correlated. I don’t know which way these contests will go, but I believe that the outcomes here will decide which party has control.

Problem in WV is how Citizen United groups have managed to frame the election in terms of losing healthcare coverage, period.

That's not all McCaskill is running ads on but it's being played up in Missouri as well. If the court strikes down Obamacare within the next 8 weeks watch it become topic A in the Democrat ads.

If the FBI doesn’t seed names in voter rolls in swing districts in PA and FL Democrats will take back control. another option is for our people to hold back ballot boxes so dems knon’t know how many ballots to stuff...

I know that history is against the GOP, but I’ve never seen a republican president that energizes the GOP base like President Trump. I think we lose some in the house but take a few in the Senate.

224 in the House
56 in the Senate

I’m with you - I get a sense that the “Trump Factor” may save us but can’t help worrying (hope for the best, but plan for the worst)....of course, while Murphy was an optimist, that doesn’t mean his recipe doesn’t also apply to the Dems......;-]

My mother did it that way. I modernized it. I cook the bacon on a broiler pan in the oven. Then I remove the rack and while bacon is draining, I crack the eggs into the bacon grease in the pan and bake in oven til the eggs are over easy. You might need to baste the eggs with the grease once.
