    U.S. Representative Beto O’Rourke of Texas had a 2-percentage-point lead over Cruz among likely voters in the state and U.S. Representative Kyrsten Sinema of Arizona had a 3-point lead over Republican congresswoman Martha McSally in the race to succeed U.S. Senator Jeff Flake

    I'd love it, but I think the chances of Dems taking the Senate are extremely low this year.

    Too many seats to protect. It's a bad coincidence - in a more normal year, they'd win it.

    Remember when Hillary was gonna take Texas and Georgia?

    She was gonna expand the map

    You guys remember that? I remember

    Yeah yeah yeah. This is different. Presidents ALWAYS lose seats until they don’t

    Just to be clear. Beto is gonna win when a Republican just won in a district that Crooked Hillary won by 12 points.

    Is that what you guys are telling me is going to happen in Texas

    It won't be long before the Democrat party implodes.

    Socialism is just the modern word for monarchy.

    D.C. has become a Guild System with an hierarchy and line of accession much like the Royal Court or priestly classes.

    Private citizens are perfectly able of doing a better job without "apprenticing".

    Won't happen, as "thing" pointed out the number of seats the Democrats are defending is too great, just not their year. However, maintaining forty five, forty six seats would be good, anything above that very good

    And don't count on the House being a big win. Democrats should win, but not with a substantial majority, which means unless their Speaker can maintain party discipline, they won't be able to fly thru legislation as the Boehner House did

    it's actually reasonable, they are at 30% now, same chance trump had.

    still unlikely, but it wouldn't be shocking

    REMEMBER


    the Russian will be helping the republicans again


    they are likely sliding them money by some other means than the NRA


    the Russians are still trying to give it all to the republicans


    the republicans and the Russians both hate our democracy and want to destroy it

    HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

    anyone who thinks that a culture stealing irishman pretending to be a hispanic who has publicly stated his intent to ban the most popular sporting rifle in the country is going to win the US Senate seat in the State of Texas is a babbling idiot and needs psychiatric help immediately

    A sad commentary on we, as a people, and our viewpoint of our freedom can be summed up like this. We have liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans, yet those very people look at Constitutionalists as radical and extreme.................so those liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans must believe that the constitution is radical and extreme.
