Folks, it is NOT so much the Senate we should be concerned with but the HOUSE.

True. But given a choice, I’d much rather keep the Senate than the House, because of federal judges, Supreme Court, cabinet nominees etc etc. If we lose the US Senate, we are finished. President Trump would never get ANY federal judges confirmed, let alone a Supreme Court nominee confirmation.
Having said all that, we will keep the house. Check out the new Rasmussen generic ballot that just came out this morning:

With less than a month to Election Day, the Generic Congressional Ballot is now dead even.

The latest Rasmussen Reports telephone and online survey finds that 45% of Likely U.S. Voters would choose the Democratic candidate if the elections for Congress were held today. Another 45% would opt for the Republican. Three percent (3%) prefer some other candidate, and eight percent (8%) are undecided.
————————-
At this time in 2014, prior to the last non-presidential year congressional elections, Democrats held a 41% to 39% lead. But Republicans went on to gain control of the Senate in those elections and increase their majority in the House of Representatives.
