"SNIP.......

Cook Political Report: “A pattern has begun to emerge: in surveys by both parties, House Democrats’ polling numbers are holding up surprisingly well in states with contentious statewide races driving turnout, Arizona, Kansas, Michigan, Nevada, New Hampshire and Pennsylvania to name a few. Meanwhile, Republicans are encouraged by House numbers they’re seeing in blue-dominated states, including New York, Oregon and even Rhode Island.”

“This week, seven of our ten rating changes favor Democrats… Historically, it’s rare that so many race ratings shift towards the president’s party in a midterm year.”

2. Good to know

3. Looks like a fair number of caveats though.

GOTV!!!

8. Yes, GOTV!

It's essential!

4. After 2016, I trust no polls.

I hope these shifts are correct, but I also hope every possible Democratic voters gets out to vote. We need the House and the Senate.

9. Me neither.

I actually believe we’ll outperform the polls, but it’s possible it’ll go the other way. Whatever the case, we can’t take our eye off the ball and must GOTV!

5. Nancy Pelosi says we're going to keep the House

Gives me hope.

6. Yup, she wouldn't have even said anything remotely of keeping the house if she wasn't sure.

10. I was surprised when I heard Pelosi say that

The certainty of the statement. The numbers in shift at the moment suggests that the internal numbers are wa-a-ay better than we imagined.

Fingers crossed! Toes, too.

7. Wait a minute - didn't the Cook Report claim the Republicans' chances had

improved, just yesterday?

11. I know. I posted both.
