    Too bad about the Supreme Court. Ginsberg looks like the living dead already and it would be at least interesting to see what kind of garbage you guys threw at the next nominee.

    It would actually be funny if she fell over tomorrow and we could get another decent Justice before January. 

    And Mike dewine sucks but he's preferable to Cordray whose claim to fame was licking Obama and Warren sphincters.

    Why?  The republicans have majority in t he Senate which are the ones who vote right?

      Yep, quite the shocker, not what I expected or was seeing in the trends.

      I admit, I was wrong on this (will have other comments elsewhere that most folk won't care about).

      Picked up Senate seats, but lost the House.

      The Senate controls Presidential appointments (Cabinet etc.) and approval of Supreme Court Justices and other Judicial appointments.

      Nothing happened to slow down the Supreme Court replacements last night, and POTUS may finally get all the other appointments being held up approved now.

      Very strange night.

          Once America watches the dems own the house for the next few? years, they will rebound back to reality.

          Except the radical kids in college and many of the poor. They want their free ride, their imposed utopian dream world of

          socialism.

             I wish they would start requiring Real American and Real World history to be taught again.

                I know you hate Trump but hoping he will be impeached is both delusional and unproductive. 

                Short answer: he won't be. 

                Early man walked away as modern man took control. Their minds weren't all the same and to conquer was their goal. So He built his great empires and he slaughtered his own kind, and he died a confused man and killed himself in his own mind...

                  He won't be. I don't get Tex's "hate". I think he thinks it's fun.

                  Impeachment is nonsense - nothing to impeach for, never going to happen.

                  Lest we forget - the house can throw a nasty budget at Trump that kills our military, funds illegals, etc etc...

                  but Pres Trump can veto it, and it would take 2/3rds of the House to override his veto.

                  That is about 289? votes to override, with only 223 dirty marxist scumbuckets whining.

                    Smarter democrats are saying the dems in the House should legislate instead of investigate but I doubt if they listen and that will play into Trump's hands in 2020. 

                    Little disappointed in the results yesterday but looking at a glass half full historically speaking. In 1994 under Bill Clinton the dems lost 54 House seats and 8 Senate seats. In 2010 under Obama the dems lost 63 House seats and 6 Senate seats. Looks like the republicans are going to lose about 34 House seats and gain 3-5 Senate seats. Thanks to Harry Reid changing the Senate rules on judges confirmation to a simple majority the republicans should get many more conservative judges on the federal court and IF someone like Ginsburg would retire another Supreme Court justice.

                      Tex still thinks Mueller and his crew are going to find something regarding the Trump/Russia collusion thing. Funny how the dems rarely bring that up anymore.

                        Oh I don't think he really even believes that. He probably does believe, and rightfully so, that if you go through any huge corporation with a fine-tooth comb you will find some nickel-and-dime malfeasance. And he doesn't really care about any of that either. It's just his neurotic hatred of trump. A lot like people rooting for the Cleveland Browns to lose because they hated Belichick.

                              Did Bill Clinton have a Democrat house and Senate? Remember Ronald Reagan, Bill Clinton, Barack Obama and George W bush suffered a reversal in the houses. Trumps was less than any of them. The first three were reelected and under George W bush the recession didn't begin until the Democrats took over the House and Senate.

                                      Early man walked away as modern man took control. Their minds weren't all the same and to conquer was their goal. So He built his great empires and he slaughtered his own kind, and he died a confused man and killed himself in his own mind...

                                        I'm just being an butt for the sake of simplicity that dem doesn't = no prosperity now.   

                                        You're correct on the net, but that wouldn't be anything I haven't mentioned before as well.  

                                        I see nobody will take to task the military budget comment I quoted.   Stick to the easy ones, boys.

                                          the house will be democrat and the senate will be republican....what exactly are u snowflakes whining about? the only thing this will really affect is trump not being able to have anymore scotus picks. He's already had 2, that more than enough. Quit ur whinin nothing bad has hapoened. The house cant impeach a president on their own

                                          Yep, quite the shocker, not what I expected or was seeing in the trends.

                                          I admit, I was wrong on this (will have other comments elsewhere that most folk won't care about).

                                          Picked up Senate seats, but lost the House.

                                          The Senate controls Presidential appointments (Cabinet etc.) and approval of Supreme Court Justices and other Judicial appointments.

                                          Nothing happened to slow down the Supreme Court replacements last night, and POTUS may finally get all the other appointments being held up approved now.

                                          Very strange night.

                                          Yup, picking up seats in the Senate should mean if there's another opening on the Supreme Court, it should be easier to get a confirmation of another conservative justice. I'd expect another smear campaign from the liberals. Make the fight over Kavanaugh look tame. Ginsburg is 85, does she have another two years left in her?  

                                          Surprising thing in Ohio all the state offices went straight Republican,
