I hope it does happen and not because I'm a Democrat. It restores the system of checks and balances our forefather envisioned when they created our government. It's never healthy when one party controls the House, Senate, Presidency and Supreme Court. And I felt this way when the Dems had all the power.

You know just like Republicans did with Obama when they took back the house in 2010. Who can forget dirty McConnell proclaiming that their #1 goal was to make Obama a 1 term President!!!

Talking So, do we know what the dems will do IF they take back the house?

They'll irritate the loudmouth hate radio jocks like Limbaugh, Hannity, Levin, etc.

Trumplings will send their already maxed out anger meters into the stratosphere.

It could prove to be very interesting.

There needs to be a better reason than this for people to believe these sorts of predictions.

DEM hopes are all hot air..........red tide on the way.......people, even really stupid people vote their wallet.....and everybody is getting some nice trickle down these days.....they know it all ends when the libs weigh in............

As you may know, we had exactly this until 1804 when the 12th Amendment was enacted. It did not work out so well. It's kind of like saying the Crips beat the Bloods in a gang war, so we'll make the Blood's leader 2nd in command of the Crips. What could possibly go wrong?

Oh, there will definitely be a red-wave, the Dems are toast. If you are GOP, I wouldn't even waste time voting because so many other Republicans will be voting anyway, you got this.

I hear a couple seats around San Francisco may flip red

If you are a Dem supporter who actually makes it to the polls for the midterms, don't forget to bring your votor ID.
