It Is Not Looking Like Democrats Are Going To Win The Elections They Need.

Democrats are not looking as strong as they need in many crucial races. Hatred for Hillary appears to spurring GOPPERS. There is one problem with GOPPERS they would support a party with Satan himself as a candidate declaring certain destruction of them as well. Party loyalty over rules all rationality, reality and logic.

I hope for a wipe out. But I am not sure it is happening. Fundamentally GOPPERS are just plain hateful, selfish and nuts.

RNC knew they were doomed at that level for months so more effort went down ballot.

A perfect anthem for Trump! It would play well at his nominating speech AND at his concession speech.

As soon as polls began showing Dems had a good chance in several Senate and Gov races, the big Repub money started pouring in overwhelming Dems with TV ads and mailers. Hopefully robust early voting and pro-Hillary trend will help overcome the Repub money advantage on the down ballot races.

32. This OP Is Not Against Hillary. I Voted Straight Dem. Demi Should Be Winning Hands Down Everywhere

In Colorado we are seeing races that should not even be close even down ticket. Our Democratic House And Senate races look good. In the state assembly these elections look close. And many local elections look too close. We are trying tu unseat Coffman and Tipton. As bad as Trump is we should be able to do that. Right now Democrats have a chance but it should be a blow out for them.

I hope we have a wave election that corrects 2010 and 2014. We need a wave if we are to be able to govern. The GOP is not dead or really in the kind of disarray that should cost them dearly based on what it looks like down ticket.

GOTV is very strong in Colorado for Dems.

Otherwise you will be labeled a "concern troll."

I have found that most people on here aren't interested in being realistic.

Damn it, I am SICK of this shit. Take a break and stop this gaslighting.

HRC WILL be president, and Dems at least will take over the Senate.
