Don't Touch That Dial! The 2018 Election will Feature Even MORE Mudslinging!

If you're worried about getting bored and restless after November 8th, fear not:

Even if Democrats win the Senate this year, Republicans are practically guaranteed to recapture it with a vengeance in the 2018 election.

“What few people talk about — but should — is that this could be a very short-lived majority for Senate Democrats, as the 2018 field is remarkably bad for them.

The numbers for that year are stunning: 25 Democratic or Democratic-affiliated independents are up for reelection, compared with just eight Republicans. That’s as lopsided an election cycle as you will ever see.

But a look inside the numbers makes the Democrats’ challenge in 2018 all the more daunting. Fully 20 percent of the 25 Democratic seats are in states that then-Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney carried in 2012 (and even Trump is likely to carry on Nov. 8): Indiana, Missouri, Montana, North Dakota and West Virginia.”

OK, get that relieved complacent expression off your face, clench your teeth and make a fist 'til your knuckles turn white.  And maintain that posture for at least two more years. 

Never a dull moment. 

Republican Senate = Permanent Conservative Majority on Supreme Court

If Republicans take the Senate this November, President Obama has a snowball's chance in Hell of ever getting a liberal justice onto the Supreme Court.  “Liberal” you understand means anyone to the left of Sean Hannity.

The last Democratic president to get his Supreme Court nomination through a Republican Senate was Grover Cleveland.  In 1895.

Not very encouraging, is it.

This is just one more reason (as if we didn't have enough already) for Democrats and liberals to NOT sit out the 2014 election because “there's no difference between the two parties,” “I'm disappointed in Obama,” “this isn't a presidential election; I'll vote in 2016,” etc.

VOTE.
