    Dems are not behind that much and most of the races left are in CA

    Idk. They are leading in enough races still to take it 221-214. But, only 60% of the votes are in for the California races so who knows. It could still change.

    Coulter wrote a book called In Trump We Trust.
    But he's a loser. Lost in 2020 and tried to convince people everyone would rise up this election to restore him.

    Previous guy demanded Arizona election be redone, claiming "Electron" stolen from Republican Senate candidate.
    Which means he has a positive charge.

    Not only did Cortez-Masto pull it out, an unknown Democrat won Washington's third CD, in what 538 gave Republicans a 98% chance of winning.

    I just read that the youth vote was 2/3 for the Democratic ticket in Nevada....beyond the GOP's gas and inflation platform civil rights and freedom of personal choices turned out to be way more important after all. Go young America...! Keep democracy alive and healthy again!

    Not to mention the fact that Republicans never said what they planned to do about inflation except investigate Hunter Biden and ban trans kids.

    Democrats won the under 30 age, country wide by a huge margin. If anything, what it tells us, is that the Republican party as it is currently constructed is out of touch with the future. You can only pander to the past so far, sooner or later, it will catch up to you. I know that I, like many are, am really upset with the recent setbacks to abortion rights and the ongoing threat to democracy and continued attempt to marginalize the "others" that the DOP (deplorable old party) wants to push - but at least it is becoming clear that the O in that party's name is really a good name for it and if they do not understand that they must change to survive or they will die, like their voters.

    You can't stop progress. You can delay it, but resistance, to quote the Borg, is futile. I believe that Lord John Acton said the following in 1862
    "A political law or a scientific truth may be perilous to the morals or the faith of individuals; but it cannot on this ground be resisted by the Church. … A discovery may be made in science which will shake the faith of thousands; yet religion cannot regret it or object to it. The difference in this respect between a true and a false religion is, that one judges all things by the standard of their truth, the other by the touchstone of its own interests. A false religion fears the progress of all truth; a true religion seeks and recognizes truth wherever it can be found."

    I know that the DOP is not a church, but unfortunately, it seems to want to govern as if it is (or at least, a cult).
