Well call me a land lubber and shiver me timbers but it appears that the "Blue Wave" loses its sea-legs a wee-bit every time the 'fake news media' opens its Anti-Trump mouth.

The only hope for the Big Blue Wave might rest with the Democrats franchising several million illegal aliens and lowering the nationwide voting age to '16'; before election day.

If not; the Democrat Party might have to abandon ship or end up at the bottom of the Mariana Trench in November.

Your assertion would have more credibility were you to present metrics that show the progressively endogenous diminution of Democrats' zeal for prevailing in at least the House this coming November.

Time will tell no doubt; people can franchise all they want or lower the voting age but the only accurate poll is the one conducted on election day.

Actual data suggests otherwise: https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/congress-generic-ballot-polls/

What will happen in November is any one's guess, but pretty much all metrics and history suggest democratic gains are likely. Since you included no data, no evidence, to support your claims, they are kinda laughable at best.
 
If Trump's trade war takes a bite out of the economy before the election, the blue wave becomes a blue tidal wave...

:lamo

I'm still waiting on the evidence of the 3 million illegal voters Trump claimed cost him the popular vote in 2016. Oh, and whatever happened to the Voter Fraud Commission? I thought Kris Kobach was going to get to the bottom of this and expose all of the fraud?
:doh

Tell us about the ‘convictions’ of Hillary. Please continue regurgitating that hysterical nonsense.

Problem is neither party has a "generic" candidate. Results on these types of polls have been bouncing up and down for months.

The real issue is which party will find the marquee issues that resonate with voters, particularly the "independents". I just saw a Gallup poll that says illegal immigration is the public's highest concern which suggests the Dems embracing "abolish ICE" slogans may be driving off a cliff. On the other hand I'm also hearing employers are struggling to find qualified workers to fill their vacancies - some are lowering standards and banking on OJT but others are holding out and bumping wages to poach employees from their competitors. If that pushes wages up the GOP will have a "higher wages vs higher taxes" club to beat the Dems about the head and shoulders.

Gonna be interesting

The gop trade war is already taking HUGE bites out of gop farm country. Just ask any of them who are willing to speak. Many of them are still silent, in shock at what THEIR gop is doing to them. What they won’t do is LIE for this gop trade war.

Businesses are already cutting back for the 4th quarter; for Christmas; we’ll be in a full-blown recession this time next year. EVERY gop politician must answer for tanking the Obama eceonomy.

Yeah, because the Dems promised tax hikes and open borders will definitely help workers and middle class Americans economically. :roll:

Pretty much all metrics and history suggest the Democrats are losing support due to their dirty tricks.

The American voters are repelled by witch hunts and Media twisting of facts and attacking unfairly.

Blue wavelet?

Crimson TIDE!!!

:D

Intelligent Americans are disgusted with Trump's constant lies and missteps.

Let's the BS outta that bull.

Progressive taxation means higher taxes on the rich. Republican regressive taxation takes it out of your ass, just indirectly...

We could use some sanity in our immigration policies. If you have any...

Truly intelligent Americans understand that those "lies and missteps" are distorted and overplayed by the Media.

And we're offended by the unfairness of that.

I didn't bet a penny.

Btw, if it wasn't for Comey and Putin, she would have won.

Oh yeah, Trump is a few million times more crooked than Hillary. That's a conservative estimate, after the trial, it'll be higher.

i'd pull that lever until it snaps right the **** off. i don't think that i've ever been this motivated to vote. let's hope that there is some organization out there waking up the kids.

i watched TV news for the first time in a while yesterday, and it was wall to wall Republican ad bull****. i saw not one ad for Democrats. they had better not squander this anger.
