| ams288 Member since: Apr 21, 2016 Threads: 29 Posts: 12532 | Too early to vote in the poll. We have to wait and see how much influence Steve Bannon has on picking the GOP candidates. Fingers crossed he gets his way and we get a bunch of Roy Moores on the ballot! “A straight man will not go for kids.” - AZDuffman |

You mean the guy who should have lost in a landslide but almost pulled it out? The President is a fink. |

I mean the guy had the full backing of the RNC & Trump yet somehow got an Alabama Democrat elected to the Senate. “A straight man will not go for kids.” - AZDuffman |

Yep. The reality where Donald's approval rating is below 35 and Hillary ain't running in 2020. “A straight man will not go for kids.” - AZDuffman |

Yup Roll Tide I still cant believe we have a Dem Senator from Alabama Everything is pointing to Donald Trump imploding due to the mid term election results crashing the republican party Somebody pinch me, I need to make sure I am not just dreaming and we have a Dem Senator in Alabama Sometimes we live no particular way but our own - Grateful Dead "Eyes of the World" |

I'm not sure that the Alabama election stands for a tidal wave against Donald Trump. In the mid term elections the sex scandals are going to fall evenly on Republicans and Democrats. Democrats have to win a net +2 Senate races to get control of the Senate, and there are 10 Democratic Senators running in states that voted for Trump Voted for Romney and Trump Indiana: Joe Donnelly (D) Missouri: Claire McCaskill (D) Montana: Jon Tester (D) North Dakota: Heidi Heitkamp (D) West Virginia: Joe Manchin (D) Voted for Trump but not Romney Pennsylvania: Bob Casey Jr. (D) Wisconsin: Tammy Baldwin (D) Florida: Bill Nelson (D) Ohio: Sherrod Brown (D) Indiana: Joe Donnelly (D)  It is conceivable that Republicans could lose 2 seats in Nevada and Arizona, but the possibility of all 10 of those Democratic incumbent Senators is statistically very unlikely. |

The senate will be tough for Dems in that they have more to defend on the flip side All House seats up for grabs :-) Although that will be tough with gerrymandering. Take myself. I live in Democratic Tampa yet my congressman is a republican from the rural county just north of me :-( Florida 12th congressional district Bama still gives me hope Roll Tide Sometimes we live no particular way but our own - Grateful Dead "Eyes of the World" |
