President Trump: Making America Great Again...

[frank ryan]

Why are you pretty sure about that? It seems like that achieves their apparent goal of undermining confidence in the system quite nicely.

The Kremlin would prefer the Democrats not have full congressional investigatory and subpoena powers at their disposal. Foreign policy-wise, Trump, and the geldings in the GOP are wonderful for Putin.

Keep draining that swamp!

So the Republican won in Ohio.

The headlines are “still too close to call.” Republicans should panic about the house. Great news for Dems.

Not to go all Trumpian but you can see why people hate the media.

In context, this would be like a democrat coming close in one of Utah's districts that hasn't had a close race 40 something years. But I agree the average person probably doesn't pay attention to the same things a political nerd would, so it would sound strange to them to call it a good night for the losing candidate's party, and make it easy to bash the media over.

The funny thing is, this seat is up for election again in 3 months.

Like Jim Matheson close? Or closer than that?

Maybe I wasn't clear. I meant one of Utah's districts that hasn't been close for a long time. I didn't mean the one that Matheson has held that covers most of Salt Lake. Of course that district has always been not like the others.

It is like when the Buffalo Bills lost to the NY Giants in Super Bowl XXV by only one point... It was still a great victory for the Bills!

I didn't know that Utah democrats spent over four times more money as their Utah GOP opponents on ads and still come up losing...

According to media buyers and party sources, Democratic nominee Danny O’Connor spent $2.4 million on the air, while Republican nominee Troy Balderson spent a bit less than $600,000.

Element Electronics, which assembles televisions, notified the state of the expected job cuts earlier this week.

Who the freak still assembles electronics in the USA?

I don't know, but maybe Trump wants to push them out.

Put another way, this is BYU connecting on a last second field goal to beat McNeese State. We can all go home thrilled with the exciting outcome and blame the media for being too negative if they question why the game was close to begin with.

And here's a fun story on state-run media about it. No need to worry if you're a republican.

Oh yeah... that is a much better way to put it. BYU is the GOP and McNeese State is the Dems. The dems suck.
