I can't help but laugh my arse off every time the Washington State Republican Party chair gets on Rantz' show and claims with a straight face that Smiley has a snowball's chance in hell of beating Patty Murray.

Really just need to +1 it and that SHOULD be easy if Georgia can get its act together.

Maybe we can get another 1-2, but we also have to fend off losing a seat.

I say 70% chance Reps take house and 60% chance they take the senate. It's early though.

You won't have to wait too long until SDVTiger is here claiming that some Republican will beat Padilla in California.

Toomey, Blunt and Portman are retiring. All those seats could go blue, as well as Wisconsin.

And I wouldn't be shocked if Rubio goes down in Florida. He's quite unpopular.

Ah, I get it. Kinda like how the media and Dems are pretending they are in anyway responsible for fixing COVID and getting the economy back on track. Good point!

I mean it's incredible how utterly incompetent they are here.

Just between 2010-2020 this is what's happened in the State of Washington.

House: Went from R+1 to D+4
Senate: D Hold (Cantwell, Murray)
Governor: D Hold (Inslee 2012-Present)
Lt. Governor: D Hold
Secretary of State: RINO Hold (Wyman)
AG: D Gain (Sideshow Bob Ferguson)

It's looking EXTREMELY likely that if Herrera-Buetler isn't primaried, her district will be flipped blue in 2022.

While I appreciated all the “free” monies last year I’m not stupid enough to be bought off with it or know that there’s not a cost coming back to me.

I’m not under the impression that all things Republicans do are good or that all things Democrats do are bad, but there’s nothing on the docket from their agenda that will be any benefit for me.

Under Republicans I got an 8k a year raise in tax breaks, gas under $2 for 4 years, and refinanced and remodeled at <2% interest and was able to get off of terrible Obamacare plan.

Auxiliary interests from Republicans mainly in control the last 4 years, oil independence while still capping our emissions to a degree, conservative judgeships, and somebody taking China to task.

The only things Biden has brought to the table i like is dropping student loan forgiveness and infrastructure spending (which I agree with but don’t want to pay for it his way necessarily.). I’m not unreasonable and think everything the Democrats do is Satan incarnate, but I’m not going to consider “not taxing me more” as a net positive for Biden or the Dems.

The last hope for Republicans is the House. House elections are local and fraud in the heavily urban areas won’t effect the swing House elections.

It's fricking morons clinging to BS spewed by conspiracy grifters Powell and Wood, which Trump parroted because he was butthurt he fricked up an easy election, who will allow us to lose in 2022. They won't vote because they believe everything is rigged...unless their candidate wins. The same thing happened with the GA Senate runoffs. Turnout in GOP areas was down because people who otherwise would've voted told GOTV door-knockers that they weren't voting because they believed it was rigged.

If Wood, Powell, and Trump could've just shut their fricking mouths and not spewed BS, we wouldn't be dealing with uncertainty in 2022, which SHOULD be a red wave to bring a check on dementia Joe. But nope, we have a bunch of morons who are still clinging to conspiracy theories.
