Pelosi Certain Dems Will Win House: ‘Just A Question Of The Size’ Of Victory
Amen.
I sure hope she knows something the rest of us don’t…cause she’s been saying this a lot lately
Tactically not the best thing to say at this moment?
M. Paul
I expect a wider opposition victory than usual for midterms, because the unpopular incumbent Trump sucked all the oxygen out of the Republican races. Where some R’s might have connected with their districts on their own, Trump made it all MAGA all the time.
And as the sacred ritual of our civil religion approached, people were looking for Trump to be presidential. Instead, he kept pooping everywhere. When he exits the stage he will be universally loathed.
Majority Leader Pelosi sounds GREAT to me!
As long as it makes the GOP miserable, it is good
“I feel confident that we will win, it’s just a question of the size the victory is,”
“When people ask me, is it a wave or a tsunami, I said all of those are drops of water. These races are very close across the country.”
I think this is very true. I also have a theory that he actually hurt his Senate candidates with his rhetoric. We’ll see later tonight, but if you’re a person who was turned off by all the racist rhetoric before, I can’t imagine the last month or so made you more likely to vote Republican.
Ughhh…my God. You know what a half decent politician would have said, having the smarts to have prepared for an absolutely predictable question?
“I was sure that Trump was going to lose in 2016. So were a lot of people. We need everyone to vote today. Please vote. Please vote even when they make you stand in line for hours. Please vote. Thank You”
Exactly. Like, duh?
I can’t see how these assurances of victory help. Somewhere between defeatism and Babe-Ruth-pointing-to-the-bleachers, there is a confident-but-GOTV sweetspot. This isn’t it.
I remember being confident about 2 years ago…
If she’s measuring the drapes I’m content
We didn’t have all the facts two years ago.
