6. He's the master of the obvious

But they treat him like some math savant.
His voice is like fingernails on a chalkboard.

4. I've noticed this too.

It's as though they learned absolutely nothing from 2016.

You'd think Trump going after the press as an institution would disabuse them of this scrambling after the quick buck, but I guess not.

8. Pathetic, isn't it?

decades of the GOP bashing them as the "liberal media" and generally using them as a politcal punching bag, then electing a moron who has made "fake new" a thing ... and they still bend over backwards to prop up Rs and knock Ds.

12. They don't care to learn.. all they

care about is $$$$$

7. Many here on this forum

have been predicting this Scenario for quite some time. Last night it was Brian Williams full bore. Today it was Melvin followed by Tur's lead in from Huntington Beach. And this afternoon it will be Both ways Chuckie Toad.

9. I heard the same argument in 2016...

and I know there were other factors back then but still.
Nothing wrong in assuming that one has to work hard for it and that every vote counts instead of believing you can just enjoy a beer at home because it's a landslide anyways.

10. No they won't...

...they'll side with the Democrats as the underdogs to keep the competition hot.

[Cha]

11. Of course they are.. but what you think they'd

do if it were a red wave.. I'm thinking they be saying the assholes are Winning!

[Awsi Dooger]

13. Well, it is a horse race given the requirements

+23 seats and likely +7 national House margin required to get there, given normal distribution among the tight races.

It's like a sporting event with a huge pointspread. The victor isn't debated beforehand. The gap is.
