SpeedRacerXXX's Avatar
FiveThirtyEight updates their election predictions on a daily basis. Democrats are now given an 83.8% likelihood of taking control of the House on November 6th. Average seat gain across their models is +39 seats for the Democrats. Right now they see 216 seats as being Solid(190)/Likely(18)/Lean(8) Democratic and 199 seats as being Solid(131)/Likely(50)/Lean(18) Republican. 20 seats are Toss-up, which means, if 538's predictions are correct, only 2 of those 20 Toss-ups need to go Democratic for the Democrats to hit 218.

I didn't see that on Optimus. Looks like their data is consistent with the rest.

It only matters if turnout is as strong as the rhetoric has been.

The momentum has been building for republicans and we still have over two weeks to go.
If the Dems take the House, I hope they spend the entire two years trying to impeach President Trump and Justice Kavanaugh.

That way, they won't get much of anything else done. That will also pave the way for President Trump to be re-elected, since voters will see how utterly stupid the Democrats can be.

At some point, the Scheissfuhrer will see the end and bunker down with the blow up dolly while the courts put his wretched spoor away one after another.

Just a prediction.

Except for the blow up dolly!
Remember the 2016 predictions, how did that work out? Mueller so investigation is dead meat. Moot, if you will

The Dems are in as tough as spot in the Senate as the Republicans are in the House. Fat chance the Dems will flip the Senate. The big elephant in the room is the economy. Even liberals admit it’s very good. Why would voters want to make a change? Fuck the polls, common sense will prevail.

The economy is but one factor in voter's decisions. Certainly it is important but there are other issues equally as important. The biggest negative factor for Trump, in my opinion, is Trump.

I didn’t care for Bill Clinton. But I voted for him for his second term. The economy was doing well. I thought Bob Dole was an infinitely better man. That proved to be true. Dole wouldn’t have denegrated the office like Clinton did.

There we go with MOB talk again.

I agree, there is a mob issue. The one that’s in the White House.

Apparently the regime’s new narrative is fear.

Voters aren’t a mob but they are angry, bambino. Call it what you will, but at the end of the day, the people still decide.

“The people will decide”, that’s profound. Of course we will. Just like we always have. I don’t see Republican leaders calling for violence against Democrats. Nothing approaching Waters, Clinton and Booker. Pelosi’s numbers are the lowest of any politician. Maxine Waters will chair the Finance Committee. I think that’s enough to scare a lot of people.

Yet the people parading with torches through the streets of Charlottesville were white supremacists.

You continue to present false equivalencies.

Republican leaders aren’t calling on anyone to do jack shit. They’re sitting on their thumbs while Trump layers his divisive madness on the populace, as he has since day one.

He’s still doing it. And it’s working. We should all be afraid of that.

Get real. Your mortal enemies are not boogie men. They’re windmills.
