With these changes, we now see the overall race for the Senate as a toss up, but one in which Republicans may still hold the slimmest of advantages.

That Texas Senate race is a shame. Texas GOP could have run anyone else (Brandon Gill, Wesley Hunt, etc) and that race wouldn’t even be close but they’re choosing to make it very tough on themselves.
I’m counting on Talafreako winning and will be pleasantly surprised if he loses.

Interesting how these things change around the same time Michigan may elect an R

Polling in the summer time is always the most inaccurate

Liberal Lesbian and PBS Commentator Amy Walter runs the Cook Political Report. That's all you need to know. Cook's impartiality has long since sailed with the departure of Charlie Cook.

CPR is not a poll and they dont rely on them very heavily.
Their analysis relies more on talking to people on the ground.
Very influential because they have a good track record - so when they change leans like this the candidate getting the benefit will see an increase in money.

Just imagine the TX GOP could be framing this race as the All-American soldier, and proud husband and father of a beautiful family that is visible in the TX community, Wesley Hunt, vs James Talarico who is ok with high school boys competitive in girls sports.
Instead, you have to figure out how to promote a sleeze ball who instead participating in America 250 celebrations to promote himself and his campaign was prancing around in Europe with his mistress, and ditching her to run away from cameras.

Hey, you can't call Tracy Duhon.....a mistress.
She prefers to be called a Paramour........it sounds classier

This happens EVERY F'N time...Talarico is gonna get curb stomped again...
Guess what Cruz - Beto was right before the election...Toss Up
Guardian Sept 2018
Won by over 200k
Cook moves Cruz - Allred to lean republican
The Hill
Won by 8%
Talarico is going to get crushed once Trump releases the $400 Million for Paxton...I mean this is the fakest POS ever to run in Texas and we had Beto.
I could think of better options than Abbott these days but he'll win handedly again.

Did Kamala win Iowa? I'm trying to remember.

These polls are fake.
They also tried to make Jamie Harrison a thing and Lindsey Graham curb stomped him.
Wash, rinse, repeat.

This shite happens every election cycle. The leftists have convinced themselves that they can speak things into existence.
James "Makeover Landman" Talarico isn't winning a statewide election in Texas.
Then:

Cornyn still would’ve beaten Talarico. Instead you chance your arm running a morally bankrupt person who will turn off a lot of voters (you’re fooling yourself if you think otherwise).
Enjoy Senator Talafreako looking to control every aspect of your life! It’s ok though. He likes eating staged barbecue!

Cook Political can suck my a-hole.
All this bullshite polls and idiots predicting a Marxist Dems sweep at mid terms is ridiculous.
There are waaaayyyyyyyy more tax paying Americans that DO NOT WANT TO BECOME SOCIALIST, than the idiots that do.
The only reason this narrative is pushed is due to the continued influence of the Marxist Dems propaganda machine, the MSM.
The MSM is the single biggest threat to our nation.
