We need to focus on the House.

Merciful Maude. Fido969, I agree with you. Even if we keep the Senate, if the Democrats get the House nothing can even get started. Except they’ll go nuts trying to dismantle what Pres Trump and the folks have forced Congress to pass.
It's the US Senate that will be easier to keep. In OH, Renacci isn't getting any help from establishment 'pubs, and he's running a lousy campaign. I fear ceding that seat to Sherrod Brown could hurt them in the HOR races.
The RNC has to get off its butt and be more enthusiastic about vigorously backing Trump supporters. In OH, I suspect Kasick and his cronies would rather lose elections than cede power to Deplorables.
I believe that we have a real chance of winning +5 seats in the Senate, we have our foot on their neck and we need to finish them off. As for the House, I am predicting -12 to -15 seats. We can cut those losses in half if we take advantage of the Kavanaugh gift that we got from the Democrats.
Remember, the Dems won +6 House seats in 2016. Posting a gain in two elections in a row is very rare, even more rare than a wave election. There will be no Blue Wave this year, but the Democrats can certainly have a net gain in the House.
Yes e do. Republicans will hold both, IMO.
