It is comforting to know the elections are now only 1 month away.

I'm ready for problem-solving leadership that isn't pushing division, open borders, lawlessness, & energy dependence.

I'm ready for the return to American ideals, & keeping criminals locked up, so they can't hurt another person.

I hope moderate Dems & Independents have had enough of the poor leadership now in power, & will vote them out. There are not enough Pubs to do it.

I'm confident that the House will go Red, but no so confident about the Senate. The Senate will be a squeaker.

I'm, so ready for the results to arrive the night of November 8th. The total rule of the Uber Left Radicals who hate America is about to end.

Our country is completely split and I don't see this changing anytime soon. Hell, my family is split. I am a registered Republican but my brother and sister are deep blue Dem. Now, both my sister and sister-in-law enjoy virtue signaling and I can only imagine what our Thanksgiving zoom gathering (hour long) will be like if Reps have a big night this Nov. The key is not to take the bait.

I'll say something like, "The weather is great in AZ right now. Very mild"

And someone will likely come back with, "Yes, but AZ voted red and..."

To which I say, "You know it does get cold at night esp. during Dec and Jan. There's a problem with my AC unit and the heat didn't work properly last year. The unit is 14 years and I don't want to spend a lot on repairs. I'm thinking about replacing it now that I've got a reliable AC vendor."

My sister and sister in law just hate it when I refuse to be drawn into a political discussion.

Don't be so confident that the house will be Republican. All the election laws that were changed and made it so easy for Democrats to cheat are still in place.

I don't expect much to change, the pubs will try to impeach Biden anyway they can which will continue the division.

The pubs will try to pass their national abortion ban which is not what America wants, this will lead to further division.

The pubs will try to defund the FBI which will lead to further division.

SCOTUS will rule on Moore v Harper giving the states greater control of gerrymandering and allowing the pols to pick their voters which is not good for democracy.

Drill baby drill will be a common theme, but the reality is that thousands of small/medium oil producing operations went bankrupt during the prior administration and the larger producers will only want to produce more if the price per barrel is well north of $120.

I would like to see the pubs come up with immigration legislation which is the best way to stop the flood of immigrants coming over with amnesty claims. But most likely they won't do anything other than cry about "open borders".

Bottom line is the pubs do not have any solutions to more this country forward, I'm not going to get my hopes up.

It's not up to the "pubs" to come up with an immigration plan. We have immigration laws, which the Democrats and Biden are intentionally ignoring. So when Biden gets impeached, it will be well-deserved. Each and every Democrat who has enabled the open southern border should get thrown out of office, which is all of them.

Sadly, we had a secure border under Trump, at least in comparison to this utter moron Biden. The only way to get a secure border is to elect a President who follows the law. That excludes any Democrat.

No, won't be any relief because the presidency was stolen so it won't matter the GOP controls the house and senate. At the very least we will be able to stop the insanity that the demoncrats have been pushing until the next presidential election.

We now see what happens when the Democrats control the House, the Senate and the Presidency. The Republicans taking over at least one of the three will be a much needed improvement.

My family and my wife's family are split also. My brother and my wife's brother are both full Dem and they both live in crime ravished big cities. We don't talk much to either especially around election time.

Oddly enough, Delaware has some of the strictest voter ID laws, and methods, and they just got even stricter:

Maybe this goes to the Supremem court and the SCOTUS agrees with it forcing people to vote in person again....except when they are physically unable to get there, which is the vast minority of mail-ins.
