And no, I don't want to bet solely on the House. To be honest, I enjoy civil discussions with others on politics but in the end, if Republicans maintain control of the House it is of little consequence to me.

I said the Republicans would hold the house and the Senate. I have to be right on both, you only need to be half right, or the Dems could win both. The odds are in your favor.

I think the LWWs are every bit as rabid as the RWWs, and the LWWs DO come out and vote regularly. I think the less rabid DEMs are less likely to vote than the less rabid REPs. Why? No idea.

2) how many disgruntled Brenie BROS/GALS voted Trump and how many will do so .. again?

I know hardly any Bernie zealots who voted for Trump--the ones I talked to either stayed home (most of them) or voted for Clinton. I can't imagine they will stay home in Nov when they have worked so hard to get so many LWW nuts on the ballot in local contests. In the area I live the DEM ballot does look like a very extreme socialist slate, and it is the rational DEMs who are talking about whether they will vote for either bad option, of stay home. I think you overestimate how many Bernieites did/will vote for Trump.

What's worse to me, i am seeing DOZENS of liberals (on a certain nameless site), that keep saying "Hillary was CORRECT in labeling republican voters deplorable, hell she didn't go far enough, they are ALL, not just half, FLAT OUT Despicable. BUT she should have kept that comment to herself, TILL she won the election"..


So not only do liberals hate trump, but think all republicans are despicable.

ADD to that, i've seen repeated calls to harass, bully, silence and otherwise demean republicans, from all sorts of leftists. AND THEY WONDER why, we do not want them to ever win office again..

Quite the stereotype. All liberals think all republicans are despicable?

Really?

Further I don’t ascribe to the racist theories that others have bandied about in this forum for the past few years and never will.

All old white men are part of the problem, according to the doctrines put forth by the leftists/liberals/Democrats. As such, you should be ashamed of yourself, since you identify with left wing identity politics.

Going to certain other sites, it certainly seems that way, with how all the liberals there, keep ranting about how republicans are despicable, deplorable etc..
