Vince44 202 Posted November 9, 2022 How is that red wave going? Dems are more than exceeding the expectations in the Senate and Governor races. Same in the House. It's what these right wing nutjobs deserve for choosing all these terrible candidates. You all need to leave Trump in the past and move to the present in Desantis. Majority of these election denying freaks are losing tonight. Best case scenario is a 15 seat advantage in the House. You should've picked up 45 seats with these inflation numbers. Losing in so many places they were favored to win. Looks like Colorado is on the verge of kicking Airhead Boebert out of Congress. Great night for the Dems. CTE Walker has no chance in the runoff without Kemp on the ballot to carry him. Warnock will retain the Senate seat. Won't even need Georgia in Dec if we hold on in Nevada. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I personally never said it was going to be a killing by the Republicans. I was very realistic because I know how fanatically stupid liberal voters are and how much hatred they carry around with them day in and day out. They would rather lose their retirement accounts, lose their stocks, live in poverty over being prosperous under a conservative government. It's actually very easy to see if you open your focking eyes on a daily basis all term long. Not just on election night. Liberals are so unbelievably stupid it has become surreal. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JustinCharge 2,397 Posted November 9, 2022 the strong showing by the democrats in this election should embolden the war hawks in Russia to nuke the US. the argument against them nuking is that the republicans can stand up to the commies in the democratic party. again, its another election that shows Russia that the US is falling to the commies. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sean Mooney 1,184 Posted November 9, 2022 The question was asked about PA. FWIW- exit polls had the #1 issue for voters (at like 33%) as abortion. On top of it- the GOP ran a bad candidate there who could not take the win from a potentially worse candidate. The big takeaway here on the night overall is- this was Republican and Independent voters across the country delivering the message "We are tired of Trump." The GOP has to get away from him. They should've been rolling all night long and instead they are once again waiting for votes to roll in to try and flip everything with even the House not gaining as much as they thought. DeSantis is clearly the future of the party and they need to hand the reins to him. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

listen2me 23 1,551 Posted November 9, 2022 I think the country just continues to go more left, maybe accelerated in this techy/beta/video game/25 gender world. Old generations of hard workers die out. Replaced with new generations of lazy whiny kids and it just goes more and more left. Republicans will gain in bumps and spikes. But in the long run it will be like trying to play tug o war but the right is standing in mud. Republicans are making gains with the youth, blacks, and latinos. Yet tough overall progress because the population as a whole is just turning weaker and more reliant. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hardcore troubadour 12,771 Posted November 9, 2022 The amount of money leftists and the oligarchs are willing to put into these elections is staggering at this point. They will dump hundreds of millions of dollars into campaigns they don’t even have a chance of winning. Val Demmings- 75 million. She never had a shot. Not even for a little bit.

Brad GLuckman 518 Posted November 9, 2022 I was hoping for a red wave so the Dems would stop being so insane with all the social stuff and focus on things that actually matter. Instead Repubs are greatly disappointed. Maybe they'll abandon Trump so some good will come of it, but I doubt it. Polls have consistrently been undersampled Republicans, but this time it went the other way. Kind of weird. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Reality 2,710 Posted November 9, 2022 If you can't beat a vegetable like Fetterman, he's not the problem, you are. The hilarious part is, he actually represents those idiots now. That should be a hoot... I'm just extremely Thankful Beto and Abrams lost. The Northeast is almost a lost cause, at least folks in the South haven't completely lost their minds, yet.

There is a reason it was once called Pennsyltucky. It is Philly/Pittsburgh/Allentown/Reading/Harrisburg and then a whole lot of red rolling hills in between. Problem is that the Philly stuff has branched out into the suburbs more and more over the years so Democrats are starting to swipe in predominantly Red counties. Fetterman trounced Oz in Bucks County which is usually red, or very close. It was not close this election. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sean Mooney 1,184 Posted November 9, 2022 It should also be said that Democrats shouldn't take this as some huge win either. If they had better ideas or more of a control on the issues that are important to them and the country they would have rolled potentially. Instead the best excitement they get is stopping a red wave and making it a trickle. That doesn't necessarily mean you win. It means you lose by less. That isn't really celebratory. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dogcows 1,029 Posted November 9, 2022 Trump + abortion bans = no red wave. The only seats gained for Rs in House races so far are from the post-2020 census gerrymandering. AZ and Nevada for some stupid reason don’t even start counting mail-in votes until today, so we will have to wait for those results. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
