Iron Stache wasn't going to beat Paul Ryan.  Let's not get carried away here.  Ryan would likely win re-election even in this climate.

What he'd lose is the Speaker position, as the Republicans are going to lose the House.  And then where is he, in the minority, with Trump as his party's figurehead and no power of his own?  No thanks, says Ryan.  What 'lil guy said is spot on.  He'll step aside for a while, get rich, and come back stronger after this blue wave and Trump storm have passed.

Zero hour, Michael. It's the end of the line. I'm the firstborn. I'm sick of playing second fiddle. I'm always third in line for everything. I'm tired of finishing fourth. Being the fifth wheel. There are six things I'm mad about, and I'm taking over.

it's almost like these congressmen and women have no idea what facebook is or how the internet works.  i feel dumber watching this for ten minutes and I don't know how zuckerburg is staying so calm.

Ya I know that.  But you're talking about Paul Ryan, Speaker of the House.  Speaker's have lost re-election campaigns, but not many.  And our brother with the facial hair is not a particularly good candidate.   I think Democrats are going to take the House but there will be particular races where they just can't get over the hump and I had Ryan pegged as one of those.

After the election, we'll see how strong the wave was and be better able to argue about whether or not it would have overwhelmed Ryan but I for one don't underestimate him.

You guys are kidding yourselves if you think the lameasses who bother to vote will tidal wave it for D's. 

Trump has a 41% approval rating right now.  Think about that and then tell me the Democrats have a chance. 

Please...

ice grillin you

trumps approval rating has little to do with it...the more important polls are the ones that start with "likely voters"...because the left is far more energized right now and the people who voted for trump are not...especially suburban women trump voters and voters who voted for obama and trump

if the democrats get people out its game over....their coalition is unbeatable as long as their turnout is strong and by all accounts the turnout is going to be real good this fall thanks to trump

the senate is all but done....the house is no lock but a year ago it was thought to be impossible to get the whole congress...now its not only possible but realistic

perhaps you could explain sd's reasons for "disliking" it as well since you seem to be so in tune with other peoples minds

Rome

Lol.  No.  It's all staying red because northeastern liberals and west coast elites still don't understand the love most of this country has for Trump.  I hear it every farging day in this hell hole.  Old poor Christian whites are just happy the Kenyan is gone and liberals are still at fault for everything that's wrong in their miserable lives.  They still get daily affirmation of this on Fox News and right wing radio stations they listen to from dusk till dawn. 

Every time Trump butt fargs them, they smile and say, give em hell, Trump!

farg em all straight to hell.

Munson

It's not. Dems turnout is ridiculously high already in special elections, that's not going to change on Election Day

I'm seeing more Killary and Muslim Obama bumper stickers this year than I have the previous three down here.

The man. The myth. The legend.

thats his base and his base alone isnt enough to win...plus those people cant vote against hillary which was a huge part of their motivation in 16. theyre voting against no name senate dem candidate they know nothing about.

All you DF's thinking the Democratic party wins the Presidency because libs are all 'fired up' are missing one thing, who the hell is your candidate?? Trump won because most people wanted ANYONE besides Hillary Clinton. The Dems are so intent on bashing Trump every chance they get that they have no clue who will rep them. They have their heads so far up their asses that all they can think of is getting Trump impeached or looking for evidence of collusion that will never be found even if there is any. The lead story in the NYT today was basically all about Trumps sex life 10 years ago. This is their number 1 news story after the Syrian gas killings. So, who is it? The face of your party is Nancy Mfn' Pelosi and Maxine Waters. Two bat shtein crazy lying old wenches who think about bashing the POTUS every second of every day. If it weren't for another 4 years of Trump, I'd love to see the circus if Pelosi runs. It'd be hilarious. Clinton again? I wouldn't put it past them. It better be some no name no one has heard of. If they go with any known Democrat, most of whom do nothing nowadays but go on CNN and MSNBC talking about impeaching the POTUS or how he made some racist remark on Twitter, Trump will win again, it will happen. There are more people who are sick of hearing all these whining asses crying about Hillary losing  then there are 'energized' Dems who have no idea who it will be that'll take the White House from Trump. All the Dems who thought Hillary was gonna' be the first woman POTUS looked past all the dirty shtein she did, probably didn't even have it enter their minds if it was ever there in the first place. Let it happen again. Are they that stupid?
