Tsunami Against GOP Will Start If Dems Win OH-12 Tuesday

If Democrats win the nationally-watched special U.S. House race in Ohio’s historically Republican 12th District Tuesday, speculation will immediately turn to the question of how large the “tsunami wave” against the GOP will be this fall.

As of Monday, the contest between Republican State Sen. Troy Balderson and Democrat Danny O’Connor, the Franklin County (Columbus) Recorder of Deeds, could go either way. A Monmouth poll completed at the end of July showed Balderson leading O’Connor by a 1 point margin — 46 percent-45 percent.

But a just-completed Emerson poll gave O’Connor the edge by 47 percent to 46 percent—in a district that has been firmly in Republican hands for all but two of the last 80 years.

Following the Democratic wins in the special U.S. Senate race in Alabama in December and the Pennsylvania-18 special House race in March, more than a few political scientists are beginning to liken an O’Connor win to that of the Democratic capture of President Ford’s old House seat in Michigan in 1974 — the third Democratic pickup of Republican territory in a special election and the start of the wave that led to Democrats winning their largest U.S. House majority in modern times that year.

Balderson winning would indicate a GOP tsunami?

Does not follow.

This district should be a GOP win.  The fact that it's close is troubling.

Meatworld sentiments locally are one of disgust held for Republicans for their party over the fruits of the last 5 years.  Talked to a bunch who are just gonna sit home election day, and it's a daunting task to get them to come out even to vote third party.  The fact that a potential loss in an historical-held GOP district might mean that the sentiments I find in my local sphere of interaction are a lot larger than the GOP might want to believe.

Everything is a harbinger of doom.  If the Republican wins, it won't be by enough.  If he loses, the entire House will collapse in November.  Either way it's doom for the GOP.  Thus it has always been.  I remember '84, when the smart money said if Reagan won less that 40 states the GOP was doomed.

Anybody who think they know how an election is going to go is probably wrong.  Sure, there are some sure things:  Pelosi will win,  That Commie with the weird eyed in NYC will win too.

Actually, voters will likely always vote for Santa Claus and whomever promises more stuff taken from the other Americans they think they are entitled to.

Um.....

I'm a voter....

and I don't vote for Santa Claus. 

Only idiots vote for Santa Claus.

Because only idiots don't know Santa Claus doesn't exist and nothing is ever "FREE".

You know that and I know that, but a vast majority of the population does not know that - and they do not want to have their fantasy spoiled by the truth.

Who's the true idiot?  The candidate who couldn't make his case or the citizen who votes for someone else?

The citizen who buys the lies from a Santa Claus, and jumps for the fancy theoretical lollipop, without questioning the ability of Santa to deliver.

In the meat world, God will always lose to Santa Claus with these idiots.  They are idiots for buying leftist promises that cannot reasonably be delivered, and if they outvote us, they will drag us all down the hellhole with them.
