After all the ugliness and evil that was demonstrated in the Kavanaugh hearings, I was certain that instead of a blue wave in a few weeks.. We'd have a red tsunami.

Well, I was certain until this morning.

When I discovered that there are 40 republicans that are "retiring"...

It was explained, true or not... that these are RINOs. Who have been posturing and playing games, colluding with the progressives, etc. Even the ones that you wouldn't have expected. Like Gowdy. (All that posturing. Anger. Pointed questions. Yet, in the end, he backed down, and still nothing has been done to Hillery.)


True or not... Where are those positions going to go?

MOST of those are fairly red to begin with, or like many areas, rally the base with a little back bone and people will vote R. The polling sucks - they had Hillary winning - this still has not changed. The experts try to "compensate" for the undersampling, but they can't be helped.

Anyway, no doubt it will be close: https://www.realclearpolitics.com/epoll ... e_map.html

This is as good as anything, googly gets some total BS

Ron Paul's Campaign for Liberty pac has a candidate poll that he says you can print and give to your legislators. (or use to quiz them).

He's saying that too many of the candidates (both sides) are hedging their positions and refusing to make outright stands on positions (seems like the norm for the snakey bastiges)

Here's a linkee to his quiz:

Way it looks right now is most of the “experts” think the senate with go stronger red with the house falling to blue. Meaning a deadlock in government, so business as usual.

Wonder if that’s the plan all along? I’d like to see the whole lot of them escorted out of DC with their belongings in a garbage bag.

Won't having the senate also mean we will get whatever SC openings that come up?

Don't panic, these so called experts are the same ones that gave Hillary a 98% chance of winning. Even the anti-Trump derangement blog electoral-vote.com is now nervously admitting that too.

Main thing is don't get complacent a vote. Take heart from the polls in Reichert's district, Dino has come back swinging there and is way up. But the main thing is vote. Don't spend too much thought on the polls.
