    ‘ In addition to those 37 Republican-held seats that are now Toss-Up or worse for the GOP, there are 25 Republican seats that are only “Lean Republican.” That’s a total of 62 seats that Republicans have a decent chance of losing. It can lose only about a third to keep the House majority.

    Contrast that to the Democrats, who have a grand total of four seats rated Toss-Up or worse. Democrats can pick one or two to pour money into — or let them go by the wayside as they nudge more Republican seats in their direction.

    While individual races might slide one way or another, it’s hard to see what event would suddenly shift the midterms in Republicans’ direction. The economy isn’t going to radically change between now and Election Day (unless there is some event that precipitates an economic crisis). The GOP-led House and Senate aren’t going to do much of anything between now and Election Day, so they cannot count on getting a boost from their legislative “accomplishments.” ‘

    I agree that the GOP is in trouble. It is especially bad because the Democrats could cause gridlock but under the leadership of Maxine Waters and other leftists they will not settle for gridlock but will pass a bill of impeachment for sheer political reasons, something that Gerald Ford predicted to happen years ago. All of this is to cover the crimes of Obama, Biden, and Clinton. Why do Russians own a controlling interest in our uranium production?

    A wave? You leftists have been trying to take Trump down for the last 500 days and nothing sticks. The American people in their wisdom will see through all the leftist lies and vote accordingly. The vaunted "Blue Wave" will turn into a blue trickle. Good luck.

    My bet is there will be no significant power shift in the midterms.
