Does this mean Fox is now fake news?

 

Yes. But that’s been know for years. It’s a step above The Onion news.

That's just stupid. You degrade yourself with such sophomoric garbage.

Anyway it's done.

Nancy Pelosi just gave a victory speech.

Congratulations democrats and even more so congratulations Americans.

We now a real check on the total power of our unhinged demagogue con man president.

Honestly, aren't you a bit disappointed with this rather lack lustre result? This is about the least of what could have been expected.

Trump has been Trumped, no more Trumping now, I hope.

Not a problem. He can just do what the last president did. Executive Order.

Anyone got a +/- on Governorships and State Legislative races?

In my experience, and as recently as 2016, that is not so.

I have been watching the returns.   At the top of the screen is a clock and once it hits zero for a time zone, they start making projections.   That is AFTER the polls in the state(s) have closed.

That's true, for this non national poll, although they did make a projection of the house going Democrat while the whole Western United States still had its polls open. They did not cite individual races. That's not what I was talking about however. I was speaking of national races, which of course is the presidency / vice presidency.

Just out of curiosity. I wonder just how many on here (T.V.) actually voted. 

 Before you ask, yes I did.

Only if one got caught up in the hype of certain media outfits. So much coverage is outright propaganda. A guy who grew up a few minute walk from where I now sit coined the phrase "The medium is the message". That was a few decades ago but truer now than ever.

Praise the Lord!! Getting rid of the toxic Republican cult is an answer to prayer for all caring world citizens.

"imo clear contradiction in dems moral soapy standards, 555 they will loose the midterms with flying socialist colours."

Sound familiar?

The empathy of a true man-child believer is downright heartwarming! Laying off workers out of spite because the GOP/Trump lost the House

Hillary was spot on.

This is like the best news ever. Buying a great whiskey today!

They should be glad, could work for someone who doesn't punish people for their right to vote because he is a bad loser.

Well he predicted it in the 1960's so he wouldn't be surprised it came about. It would be interesting to hear his insights on it now. Sadly he doesn't get the recognition around these parts that he deserves. Even his high school has a more prominent alumni in Neil Young.

The best gauge of the popularity of the parties would have to be the respective votes their house candidates received. As it stands the Dems are ahead by about 9% points. Trump will need to make some changes if he wants another term.

They do if they are not impeached.

The ‘checks and balances’ are about to kick in.

 

All Congressional investigations will now be chaired by Democrats.

 

Including those yet to be started.

 

 

And guess who gets Mueller’s report.

Dream on.

 

The impeachment process puts his supporters in the Senate under scrutiny.

On impeachment, I do think there are already multiple impeachable offenses even before the Mueller report, and that will bring more.

However, impeachment is a political decision, not a criminal prosecution decision.

Yes there is no way (short of some kind of shocking smoking gun, and we've learned already that "trump" fans don't abandon him for anything) the senate will convict and remove him.

So the threat of impeachment in the house will probably be more politically potent than actually doing it.

So I really don't think the house will literally try to impeach because it just wouldn't make good political sense. But that can change.

And now the Dems will play their stupid games, all that will do is annoy voters and fire up the Republicans -the Dems really can't help themselves. The end result will be another 4 years of President Trump ????

Why? Were you the chief of Mr. Trumps next election campaign, and overestimated his popularity by employing too many paperboys?
