Cook, always behind the real curve by about two months.
Charlie Cook having totally blown 2014 and 2016, knows his credibility is dead if be blown 2018 as badly. Suddenly being a tame mouthpiece for the DNC isn’t looking to be the smart career move for Charley boy
We’re gonna hold the House.
A 40 seat loss strikes me as outlandish. If its in the single digits, I’m happy.
And three weeks is an eternity in polltics.
Bottom line: Cook’s team still has the Senate staying Republican, as he has all along, and the House probably flipping to the Dems, but now with little chance of a big wave of 40 or more seats, more like around 30 and some chance of as low as 20 in which case the GOP stays in control.
Polls will get better nearer the election...if they cannot depress the GOP vote..
6 months ago I said the lying American hating Democrats were going to get KO’d come the midterms. These political experts are really on the case. Amazing.
Oh Look.
It’s dnc propagandist, Charlie Cook, trying to cover his @ss.
To me, the most disgusting moments were Democrats giving Christine Ford BJ's on broadcast TV......
Democrats sucking up to the liar for her "bravery and truthfulness" for "coming forward" after her 36 years past ordeal (yuck).
IMHO, most Americans were disgusted at this fawning Democrat display......that surely lost them thousands of votes
“suddenly”
Is that like “unexpected”?
we all here knew that that the fake polls would be forced to start shifting towards actual reality as the election approached, basically shifting asymptotically on a scale that ranges from complete bullshit to actual reality ...
I predict we gain 6 to 9 Senate seats and lose 4 to 10 House seats.
Kudo’s to you - you really did a ‘yeoman’s job’ putting all those links in the story.
It's going to be really close as to who runs the House. We probably won't even know til the weekend after the election - there's always 5-6 House races too close to call.
Nice information. So long as the Republicans don’t screw it up, go for some shiny bait, things are beginning to look good. Hard to top what Warren did this week, but I fear, though, that they will do something stupid in the remaining days.
Our Last Chance? [Can Donald Trump Revive The "Spirit of '76?]
I hear we lose 10 or so total. As long as we hold majority, I’m happy. What a mess it would be if Dems get the house. Constant investigation, impeachment hearings. We need to at least hold the house by 1 seat. Even if nothing is done in the house, the senate will continue with judges which is most important for the future.
I know. 19 days to screw it up is not out of the question. Paul Ryan out campaigning is not great in my opinion.
In 2016, Charlie was right on the money for the House, the actual result was +6 seats for the Democrats. The piece that he missed was the Presidential contest. Of course, everyone missed that one.
