Oh, it is a guarantee.

If Democrats only win 210 House seats: Told you so! And that would be legit.
But, if Democrats only win 240 House seats: Told you so!
If they only win 300 House seats: Where's your #BlueWave!?

Same with the Senate. Dems very likely won't win the Senate. But if they pick up one seat? Told you so! And if they pick up 4 seats? What? Only 4? So much for that #BlueWave!

Trust me, that's how it will go.

Yes. 2 complete idiots would be a stellar ticket.

Quinnipiac poll of 9/17 shows Cruz up 9%
https://poll.qu.edu/texas/release-detail?ReleaseID=2570

Among Texas likely voters who choose a candidate, 93 percent say their mind is made up. That includes 94 percent of Cruz backers and 92 percent of O'Rourke backers.

I think it's long overdue for some young blood to take the reigns on both side of the isle.

Are you working for Cruz, running for a higher office as soon as you get elected?

Fer gawd's sake. Elect him senator for 2 terms. See how it works out. Then run for another office.

We all feel this way, but in this case, neither candidate is particularly old nor have then been around for decades.

Democrats feel that way because it serves their purpose to feel that way.

Dems feel that way because the young crowd is easily manipulated. They can easily be convinced that the nation needs their "young, fresh ideas", which is nonsense, of course. What the Dems need is the vote of the uninformed inexperienced youngsters, so that the old guard - Pelosi, Schumer, etc can remain in power.

Yes, folks.

He beats Cruz on the likeability scale by a country mile.

I always did like that album, Who's Next?

Too bad his policies are failures. It's always about policy. Try discussing them for once.
