Okay, I have to be honest with you.. I am not feeling the negativity
that I have seen by more than one poster on our chances in the mid-terms.. I am actually feeling quite positive for many of our candidates
Example: the republicans have done so much damage to themselves by refusing to back away from the Trump and his crazy ilk, most Iowans view Trump unfavorably.. and that is most independents also

If our people get out to vote, and the sad sacks of the world stop trying to demoralize them, I have a feeling pollsters are going to be pulling their hair out by its ever whitening roots.
Of course the media is going to go negative because usually the out of power party makes all the gains in the first mid terms of a new Presidents cycle. But this time, look what a group of losers the out of power party has embraced.
= new reply since forum marked as read
I ignore it, except for to dispute the breathless terror posts.
We also have all the people pissed off about abortion rights on our side.

By refusing to back away from Trump and criticize him, republicans have hurt themselves beyond anything that
they could imagine. On November 8th there will be a wipe-out of the pukes that we have not seen in years.
...Not taking on Trump, and calling him out for who & what he is, is stupid beyond "STUPID." Also not defending
women's right to abortion, will motivate women to vote against the republicans in a way that will be devastating this
election cycle. About future elections beyond this one, one cannot say. But, this time they have shot themselves in
the head ......TWICE, NOT ONCE.
...The backlash will be similar to 88 Dukakis riding around in a tank. And, it is too late for the leaders in the
Puke Party to do anything about either problem. Who is going to criticize Trump at this point? Who has stood by
women's right to abortion through all of this? Democrats THAT IS WHO.
....Pukes will lose like they have never lost before. In eleven days we will see this blood bath. And, I for one, will
enjoy it completely. (and in my opinion, it is too late for them to do anything about it)
Also, I got Dukakis election date wrong. It was 88, not 72. That change has also been made.
........Oh well I tried.
... and that's why we need to stop listening to them and stop taking cues from them.
They are wrong, but it's their business to get us churned up and anxious. Why? So we'll watch more TV and listen to them blathering 24/7. No thanks, I don't want to hear that message, and I refuse to repeat it here on DU.
We need to stay positive and keep on doing what we're doing. We need to keep electing Democrats everywhere.
For one thing there will be another democratic governor in Pennsylvania. Rump has said he is going to contest the results of the election because he knows already that the candidates he backed are going to lose.
I truly believe that the women and young people in this country are going to be the major players in this election.
You and I are on the same wavelength. I think we'll be surprised by the election results. In a good way. At the top of the year, the Dems were considered roadkill for the upcoming election. Now? It's race to the finish. Contests are close, razor-thin in many cases. Now it's a GOTV operation. We get our people out, we can win this thing.
Btw, I listened to President Obama this afternoon, the rally in Michigan. The man did what he's so good at: he set the crowd on fire.
Fired up and ready to go!
Off topic but I received my verification this morning that my ballot had been received and added to the 750,000+ early ballots in Pennsylvania. Feels good.
Fired up!
