Well, Pennsylvania is keeping its Democrat governor and senator and in my congressional district, the Democrat is projected to win. Haven't heard yet about the others. 

Sorry to Trump supporters who were so sure huge Trump support here would ensure a red wave in PA.  Guess there are too many here who want a socialist state and country with all that "free stuff."

We had the volume off, thankfully,  when Stirewalt was on. Did he say anything?  Reminder: I worked with him 20 years ago, and he was a lazy, arrogant know -nothing who couldn't write a grammatical,  coherent paragraph to save his life.

AG William Barr: "I'm recused from that matter because one of the law firms that represented Epstein long ago was a firm that I subsequently joined for a period of time."

Alexander Acosta Labor Secretary resigned under pressure concerning his "sweetheart deal" with Jeffrey Epstein.  He was under consideration for AG after Sessions was removed, but was forced to resign instead.

I don't smoke or snort and coffee might keep me awake, so it has to be an adult beverage.

Gotta say, in 50 years of watching politics, I've never seen "the House" called before individual races for the House have been called.

We have 200 "Smith vs. Jones" races out there that haven't been tallied.

Could also be they don't like Trump and the spineless Republican congress.

One tiny silver lining is that of those who lost (Yoder, Curbelo, Mia Love if she loses, Paulson) many were neverTrumpers and open borders types.

At least the Ds purged for us.



That's an idiotic statement..they still vote with the Repubs...do you think the Dems will!

Politico has Dems +11 in the House. They flipped several in PA.
The Republic is lost.

Romans 12:16-21

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all…do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

So did FoxNews actually call the House for Democrats before polls in CA even closed?

That was expected after redistricting.
I disagree.  Circle gets the square.

I sense Mr. Cruz is going to eke out a win here.
But I also sense that this is going to pretty much kill whatever hopes he still has of becoming president.
