Is anyone here in disagreement with the Republican prediction of gaining house seats?

[LV426]

It was the primary because there was no Republican Party in Texas at that time. Whoever was the Democratic nominee was going to be the Senator. Or are you unfamiliar with how the South voted during that time period?

So now you're admitting it was a primary, which parties can run however the fuck they want, and not the general.

OK, so that's one goalpost shift in one post so far...let's see where the next one is...

There were other stories of Johnson cheating in even school elections. Something you would know if you read. Hence my use of him as an analogy. You are accusing Republicans of doing something even a great cheater like LBJ would be envious of.

Annnnd, there it is...right on cue. Second goalpost shift. So you abandoned the pretense that LBJ cheated in general elections to shift the goalposts to try a different tactic. Like I give a shit about school elections. Your initial insistence was that he cheated to win the Senate Election. Then you moved the goalpost that it was really the primary, which parties run on their own. Then you moved the goalpost again when you realized both men cheated in the primary, to some "school election" thing no one gives a shit about.

And you did all that just so you don't have to admit that Republicans are cheaters today, and can only win elections today by cheating.

Weak. Fucking. Sauce.

You are such a bitch. Quit crying because you haven't read history. Google is your friend, remember. Look it up asshole.

This is classic cawacko whatabouting, complete with goalpost shifts and redefinitions of parameters. And the arrogance cherry on top.

You're the worst.

What you do isn't read or reference history; what you do is cherry pick and then shift the goalposts all so your precious ego can be spared the discomfort of admitting you're not half as smart or informed as you pretend to be.

 

[Getin the ring]

dear triggered nut-bags,

the math makes it impossible for the Senate to change hands, the math makes it likely the house will change hands

Having control of the house means nothing, except the dems will be able to whine louder, send ridiculous things to the Senate, where they will be trashed.

And even if something slips by the Senate by the narrowest of margins, to quote Obama, "Trump still has his pen"

make all the noise you want, but if you don't take the House, you will be ridiculed AGAIN, especially here as being wrong again.

But I'm sure you'll all find another poll to parade around,

Oh yea, and the Russia thing
you guys are the gift to comedy that just keeps on giving, love you guys

Bullsh*t. If you read the book or did a google search you would know what I said is true. You're just an asshole who tries to bully people so fuck you.

 

[LV426]

Bullsh*t. If you read the book or did a google search you would know what I said is true. You're just an asshole who tries to bully people so fuck you.

It wasn't really true, though, was it? Because it wasn't the Senate Election, like you said. It was the Democratic Primary for the Senate Election, and as we've learned over the last couple years, parties can run primaries however the fuck they want, and those primaries aren't policed or regulated by any type of governing body.

Oh, and Stevenson cheated his ass off in that primary too...but you left that out because it would mean your attempt to compare Johnson's win in the 1948 Democratic Senate Primary, to the last 18 years of Conservatives at every level of government cheating in elections, is bullshit.

So you have to stretch to make a false equivalency, and you can't even do that right without exposing yourself as a hack.

What a fucking loser.

 

[Teflon Don]

Poor Garud is simply distraught that the blue wave isn't likely to come now. He is desperately clinging to the hope that the Dems can somehow at least squeak out a House win.

I suspect the same thing

He sure can create some straw men arguments

 

[Teflon Don]

What would you consider a Blue Wave? Democrats have the House. If that counts as a blue wave, yes we get one.

You are 100% convinced they have the House? No doubt?

Oh and just taking the House would not be a wave.

But I understand your desire to want to call it one should it occur

I thought you would have learned from 2016

 

[Teflon Don]

Not going to get the Semate, in fact likely to lose two seats.

What two?

You're being silly if you think the Democrats' goal will be to pass legislation with control of the House.

Control of the House gives them subpoena power. Instead of passing legislation, they will just hold hearing after hearing after hearing after hearing into the rampant GOP/Conservative/Russian corruption that is led by the Orange Racist Shitgibbon.

Then one by one, we tear down your institutions (NRA, GOP, Fox News) and leave Trump in place. That's important because leaving Trump in place until 2020 lets Democrats use him as a cudgel to attack Republicans for supporting him despite all the bad, bad, awful shit they will find with their Congressional investigations.

Elle Oh F'ing Elle, trying to compare a 1948 Senate primary election to what is happening today. You are a loser LV. You don't understand history because you haven't read it and then you double down on your ignorance. It's why you don't get the analogy and it has nothing to do with being a hack. Because of your anger and bitterness you can see what the analogy is about. Go scream at someone else junior. Run along little boy.

 

[LV426]

That's right, because they're also poised to take around 700 or so State Legislative seats and maybe even 10 governorships.

That's what you're trying to do.

At least this time you were accurate by calling it the primary, not trying to slip one past the goalie by pretending it was the general election.

 

[cawacko]

Shut the fuck up, you had no clue and still don't. It's why you're trying to backpeddal. Have fun bitch. (and learn some history)

 

[Mott the Hoople]

So their was a lot of hype about "WALK AWAY" and "RED WAIVE".....


Do our Republicans posters here still agree with the Republican line that we will experience a red waive and the Republicans will gain seats in the House and 5-10 seats in the Senate?

Don't know...my gut feeling tells me that despite reports of record turnout that Dems will make gains in both the Senate and House but won't take either back. Maybe they get lucky and take the house.

What Democrats should really be focusing on is winning Governor races and State Houses. Build a solid foundation before you build a house. Now if Dems make serious pick ups in Governor races and State Houses Republicans should be very worried. If Dems don't I wouldn't be to worried if I were Republicans even if Dems win back the House or Reps.

I think Dems get the house, I could be wrong. I think we also build on governorships and state legislatures.

Senate is out of reach without a serious overperforming of the polls.

For Democrats building on Governorships and State House will be huge going into 2020 if they have the majority of those and the House of Representatives then they would have a huge strategic advantage going into an election on a census year that Obama pissed away in 2010.

 

[LV426]

It's why you don't get the analogy and it has nothing to do with being a hack.

It's not an analogy.

Someone must have tanked the verbal on their SATs...

It's a comparison and an attempt at equivalence.

An analogy is like or as, what you did was compare and seek equivalence.

So yeah, you're a hack.

 

[LV426]

Shut the fuck up, you had no clue and still don't. It's why you're trying to backpeddal. Have fun bitch. (and learn some history)

1. You said LBJ cheated in his Senate election.

2. You moved the bar and said it wasn't the election, but rather the primary (after I pointed that out)

3. You moved the bar again when you used another non-sequitur (whatever this "school election" thing was) because you couldn't draw an "analogy" between what LBJ did in the primary in 1948, and what Republicans are doing in general elections today.

4. You are an arrogant prick.
